POV: You love chicken paillard but want something a little different. 🤌🏼

These **Chicken Paillard-Inspired Meatballs** are everything you love about the classic dish, but in the form of the softest, juiciest meatballs. They’re bright, buttery, lemony, and perfect for meal prep or an easy weeknight dinner. Trust me... these are going straight into my weekly rotation.

I finally gave the viral crispy rice paper dumpling trend a try… and it absolutely lived up to the hype. 🤭✨

The best part? You can clean out your fridge and turn leftovers into something that tastes like takeout.

For my filling I used:
• Shredded chicken
• Carrots
• Onion
• Japanese BBQ sauce

Wrap it up in rice paper, crisp it until golden, and that’s it. Crispy on the outside, savory on the inside, and honestly a 10/10 recipe I’ll be making on repeat.

Save this idea for the next time you have leftover chicken! What’s the first filling you’d try?

Brownie + Soufflé = the dessert I didn’t know I needed. 🤎
Imagine if a rich brownie and a chocolate soufflé had a baby... this would be it. It’s intensely chocolatey, perfectly fudgy, and somehow still light thanks to whipped egg whites. Plus, it’s made without any added sugar!
Ingredients:
• 1 cup Ghirardelli No Sugar Added Chocolate Chips
• 1 individual cup unsweetened applesauce
• 4 eggs, separated
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup King Arthur Keto Wheat Flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Melt the chocolate chips until smooth.
3. Stir in the applesauce, egg yolks, and vanilla until fully combined.
4. Add the keto flour, salt, and baking powder and mix until smooth.
5. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks.
6. Fold a small amount of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it.
7. Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the remaining egg whites, being careful not to deflate them.
8. Pour into a greased baking dish or cake pan and bake for 30 minutes.
9. Let cool slightly before slicing. It will settle a bit as it cools—that’s exactly what you want!
The result? A dessert that’s somewhere between a brownie and a soufflé with an incredibly rich chocolate flavor and the dreamiest texture.
