Cooking Thursday

I have another air fryer recipe for you.  If you don't have one, you could probably do this in the oven too, but this is so easy in the air fryer and gets nice and crispy.
I got this one from the Pioneer Woman.  It works for a light supper or for lunch.  It takes just a few minutes to put together and it's very good!

Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Bagel Pizza

1/2 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
6 tablespoons BBQ sauce
1 bagel
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
optional - jalapeno peppers, pickled onions

Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees.
Mix together the chicken, 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce and mozzarella cheese.
Halve the bagel and spread remaining BBQ sauce on each half.
Top each half with the chicken mix and jalapeno peppers if desired.
Place in air fryer and air fry for about 5 minutes.  Watch to make sure it doesn't get too done.
Garnish with pickled onions if desired.

Squirt Gun Tie Dye

A few months ago, a friend sent me an idea for a kid friendly way to do tie dye shirts.  It was something that sounded like Cassie would enjoy.  Since this is best done outside, and Fall is coming, not to mention Cassie will soon be in pre-school, I thought I better have her over before it was too late.

You get cheap squirt guns - I got a pack of 12 from Amazon for $8.99, and you put tie dye color in them.  The kids can choose the color they want and squirt them at a shirt.

I used a drying rack and set it up in our driveway.  I got a white sweatshirt and clipped it to the rack.  Can you see how excited Cassie was to do this?

She's having fun squirting the dye.

Soon she was using two squirt guns at a time.  Do you see the dye on the cement?  That's why we did it outside!

Here she is, modeling and showing the back of the finished shirt.

And the front!  It turned out cute and she was proud of it. When she left she told me thank you and said "Next time we can do another activity that is fun!"
