I roasted gnocchi in the air fryer for the kids.
Crispy Seared Salmon with "Herbs de Poblanos" from Los Poblanos. A little weird but it actually worked pretty well!

I made Key Lime Pie Rice Krispie Treats [Woochiens] for a party. My dad had made them earlier in the week and I decided to try to recipe.
It was (way!) too long ago to recall details but I seem to recall adding a bit more butter. I also added some salt but I don't recall how much.
The chocolate on top failed miserably. I even tried added more coconut oil to no avail. I would skip that part for sure next time. But even then, I didn't love them. They had the lime flavor but it was subtle.

This is actually two different days.
A repeat of Chopped Cheese Steak with the noted way to brown the beef.

I tried making a steak directly on the grill as opposed to souse vide or reverse sear.
I salted the steak a few hours earlier and then took it out of the fridge about 45 min before grilling. I used a probe thermometer and cooked it flipping about every min until it was 130°F.
It was very good! I think that could be because I was certain this was USDA Prime (though from Walmart for whatever that’s worth).
I grilled it at home then wrapped it in foil and let it rest while I went to Emily’s to feed the cats. I cut and ate it there.

I made something that is a hybrid of a "Chopped Cheese" and a "Cheese Steak". I've also seen these called "Cheese Steak Sloppy Joes", though that usually also is done on a bun.
I sautéed onion in [too much] oil...and probably a bit too long. I then pressed beef roughly like I was making smash burger. Not very hard but enough. Flipped it, then chopped it up. This was just to get some crusty bits. I then mixed in cheddar cheese.
Wish I used less oil and/or drained it. It was 90/10 mix but still a bit oily. It was, however, very good!
I noted it above but I think pressing into the pan is key to the flavor and matching a cheese steak. It is also my new favorite way to brown beef. You put the beef in the pan and press it down like a smash burger to cover as much as possible. As it cooks you can cut it into bits to make easier to flip. Flip it, let it cook a bit more, then chop with a sharp spatula! A lot more flavor and cooks faster.
