Low-carb burgers!

Such an easy dinner to grab the air fryer and make these cheeseburger sliders! We’ve been working on our house lately, so we love easy quick dinners!

Perfect for a hot summer night, not having to heat up our oven in the house, this was the best summer meal!

The special sauce?

All you need is light mayo, yellow mustard, and pickle juice. And then the spices: Onion powder, garlic powder, and sweet paprika.

And who doesn’t love a good cheeseburger? This recipe requires no grill, and is easy to make year-round.

No bun, no problem, Gina says.

The meat is mixed with cheese, air-fried to perfection.

Then for burgers, it’s all about the toppings!

Set out lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, pickles and the “special sauce.”

Life is busy, and it’s easy to forget to prioritize sit-down meals.

This time we ate together, and brought our plates out to the deck to enjoy this summer meal.

Cozy mountain home

We’ve lived in our mountain home for three years, in this small space, with kids coming and going. It was time to reorganize and thin out!

I love Joshua Becker’s philosophy on simple living. This post, Want a Dreamier Bedroom? Clear the Clutter, is exactly what we did with each room in our house!

We started in our master bedroom, and made our way through each room in the house.

It feels so good. We accomplished our mission! [By the way, when we bought our house, it was solid wood inside!]

One of our dinners one nighty was made with the Skinnytaste Air Fryer! If you missed my post, Bacon-Wrapped Air Fryer Cheesy Jalapeño Poppers, you can read about the air fryer and grab the delicious recipe!
