Place the roasted garlic cloves in a Mason jar, cover with olive oil, and store in the fridge for up to a month. You may also use the flavored oil to cook with! Or, spread the cloves on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer. Once frozen, store the cloves in a plastic bag. You can also mash the roasted garlic and freeze it in teaspoon measures in an ice cube tray.

Falafel Feta Slider Ingredients

2 (14-ounce) cans garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 shallot, peeled and chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup feta cheese
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon good-quality olive oil
8 slider rolls
Lettuce
Thinly sliced red onion
Tomato slices 

Homemade Tzaziki

1 seedless cucumber
1 cup Greek yogurt
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon freshly chopped dill
1 tablespoon freshly chopped mint
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt & freshly ground pepper

Instructions

1. Combine the garbanzo beans, shallot, garlic, tomato, feta, parsley, lemon zest, cumin and flour in your food processor and pulse to combine (the mixture should be firm enough to shape into burgers; if the mixture is too loose, add more flour; if too dry, loosen it with additional lemon juice).

2. Divide the mixture into 8 equal 1/4-cup size burgers. Using your hands, shape them into patties. Refrigerate for 1 hour before air frying.

3. To make the tzaziki, peel, seed, and shred the cucumber with a box grater (using the large holes). Then squeeze the shredded cucumber dry with a dish towel to reduce moisture.

4. Combine the cucumber, yogurt, garlic, dill, and mint in a mixing bowl. Season with salt & pepper and stir to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use, preferably a half hour or more, to allow the flavors to meld.

5. Brush the basket of your air fryer with a thin coating of olive oil.  Place the falafel in the basket in a single layer and brush the tops of with olive oil. Air fry at 400ºF for 10 minutes, flipping the sliders over halfway through cooking.

6. Split the rolls in half and pile each one with a lettuce leaf, a falafel feta slider, sliced red onion, sliced tomato and a spoonful of tzatziki.

Ingredients

7 strips thin-cut bacon
One 1 1/2 pound pork tenderloin
2 tablespoons homemade or store-bought pesto
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
12 baby yellow or red potatoes, cut in half
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt & freshly ground pepper

Bacon-Herb Wrapped Pork Tenderloin Instructions

1. Arrange the bacon slices in a row onto a piece of plastic wrap, overlapping slightly to form a rectangle wide enough to wrap the tenderloin.

2. Place the tenderloin on the bacon wrap to measure the length and trim the edges of the tenderloin to fit the length of the bacon. Remove the tenderloin and place it on a separate surface.

3. In a small mixing bowl, combine the pesto and Dijon mustard and stir to combine. Brush the pork tenderloin with the mixture to coat all over.

4. Place the tenderloin back on the bottom edge of the bacon. Roll the bacon around the tenderloin, overlapping, to form a tight roll.

5. In a mixing bowl, toss the potato halves with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. 

6. Place the drip tray at the bottom of your Blitz Smart Fryer Oven. Arrange the potatoes on one of the air racks, cut side up and place the tray on the bottom rung of the oven. Place the bacon-wrapped tenderloin on the other air rack and slide it in above the tray of potatoes.

7. Roast in your Blitz Smart Fryer Oven at 375ºF for 25 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature 140ºF when tested with a meat thermometer and the potatoes are tender and golden.
