Spicy stuffed eggplants (Karnıyarık) but make it air-fried & baked! Traditionally, karnıyarık is made with fried eggplants, but this lighter version keeps all the flavor without the excess oil.

Think silky orzo simmered in broth, finished with parmesan, lemon zest, and a squeeze of juice for that tangy pop. Perfect side for chicken, shrimp, or on its own with extra herbs.
The best side dish for herb butter-baked salmon is lemon orzo with Parmesan.

Light, fresh, and fancy without trying. Peppery arugula tossed with a lemon-olive oil dressing, topped with smoked salmon, capers, red onion, and creamy avocado. It tastes like a brunch salad from a chic café but takes 5 minutes to make.
