Air Fryer: Roast Chicken

Pandemic Life.  In this coronavirus (covid-19) time, one would think cooking would be a great pastime.  I've always used the kitchen as a way to relieve stress.  But now, not so much.  I've found little joy in it as of late, unfortunately, certainly not like I normally do.  Plus it's not exactly easy getting groceries in these times.  However, I always want to turn out a good meal, that is just part of my nature.  Anyway, I'm still here and virus free at this minute...

Avgolemono (Greek Lemon Chicken) Soup

Hard to believe I've never made this before.  I love all egg drop soups.  Italian Stracciatella and this Asian one that I've made before.  Time to try Greek tonight.  I love this one as it's so creamy without having any dairy in it.  I garnished my sons with chives as he despises dill.

Tea Poached Pear, Leek and Cheddar Galette

I saw this on food t.v. and it looked interesting to me in that it was sweet and savory, so I gave it a go.   I think it would be great with goat cheese instead of cheddar as well...  I've always wanted to make a "galette".  I used the other pie crust to make a "crostata" which is essentially the same thing except one is French and the other is Italian (I think it's easy to guess which is which  😊)
