German Potato Pancakes (Kartóffelpuffer)

It’s officially Fall, and nothing sounds better on a cool day than a nice warm, fluffy, and yummy potato pancake! Or… maybe that’s just me. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Oh well, today I’m sharing one version of German potato pancakes (yes there are multiple) that are loved in the Smith household. The kartóffelpuffer is traditionally served at Christmas time in Germany, but these are a family favorite that makes their way to our table, OFTEN.

What screams fall more than Apple Pumpkin Bread? I can’t think of anything. I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to pumpkin and apple treats, cooler weather, and dusting off my favorite boots (and I have a lot of them to choose from). The leaves on the trees outside are starting to turn, the weather is getting cooler, (along with some random days if hot), so I think now is a great time to share some fall recipes.

Oven-Baked Beer-Batter Fish

I know I do, but I also know, that you don’t always want to fry your fish, but still want that amazing crispy goodness. Well… Enter… the baked version of my Beer Batter Fish Fry. Just like my beer batter recipe, this recipe can be used on shrimp or chicken. I’m honestly not sure if this recipe would work in an air fryer, but if you try it, please let me know!

Also, I have a tartar sauce recipe that goes great with this Beer Batter Fish Fry.  Enjoy!

Homemade Taco Seasoning

Homemade Taco Seasoning

Do you love tacos? Me, too. I mean, doesn’t everyone love some sort of version of tacos? Fish, chicken, beef, or a fun veg taco with mushrooms and bell peppers (I’ll share that recipe soon). Well, I have found that amazing tacos are the result of amazing seasoning. This taco seasoning recipe is my personal recipe and was honestly created serendipitously.

That’s right, it happened completely by accident! I was talking to my then 4 yr-old, MJ, and accidentally used paprika as the main ingredient instead of chili powder. At first, I was a bit frustrated and was like “Well, this is ruined”. but my husband Nate and I don’t like to waste, so we decided to try it anyway, cross our fingers, and hope for the best.

Patatas Bravas with Remoulade Sauce

Last night, I decided to go Tapas themed and made everything finger-friendly. I made cubed-sized Beer Batter Fried Fish, these Patatas Bravas, green beans, and instead of spicy garlic aioli, I went Remoulade for the dipping sauce (this is one of my husband’s favorite sauces, and eats it with almost everything).
