Talk about the perfect comfort food. Homemade banana bread is one of those recipes that you can easily whip up and enjoy on a lazy day at home. Not only is it comfort food but it also has some health value with the added fruit!

How To Store Banana Bread

The easiest way to store banana bread is to add it to an airtight container and store it in the fridge. This will keep it fresh and moist for several days. And if you prefer to have your banana bread warm, you can just heat it up for a few seconds in the microwave when you’re ready to eat.

Can You Freeze Banana Bread?

You sure can! I love making up an extra loaf and having it ready in the freezer. This is one of my favorite ways to meal prep. Just make certain to wrap it up tightly with Saran Wrap before adding to your freezer-safe back or container. This is just an extra layer of protection so it doesn’t freezer burn.

Easy Air Fryer Chicken and Shrimp Alfredo

Air Fryer Chicken and shrimp alfredo on a plate
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breast diced
  • 1 lb shrimp
  • Favorite steak seasoning I recommend investing in good seasoning at your butcher!
  • ½ C Unsalted Butter
  • 2 C Heavy Cream
  • 2 tbsp garlic minced
  • 3 c grated parmesan
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 tsp white pepper
  • 2 tbsp parsley
  • Favorite fettuccine noodle or broccoli to serve over

Instructions

  1. Spray air fryer basket with olive oil to ensure the chicken and shrimp do not stick.
  2. Place chicken and shrimp in an air fryer and sprinkle with steak seasoning. If you don’t have any on hand another favorite of ours is garlic salt and black pepper.
  3. Air fry the chicken and shrimp at 350° for 20 minutes, until cooked.
  4. While that is cooking, melt butter in a medium size saucepan.
  5. Once the butter has completely melted add in the heavy cream, stir to combine.
  6. Once the heavy cream has heated up add in garlic and parmesan cheese. A tip here is to add 1 c of parmesan cheese at a time to ensure all the parmesan has been incorporated.
  7. Once the parmesan cheese is all nicely mixed together add in nutmeg, white pepper and parsley.
  8. Serve over your favorite pasta noodle or over broccoli if doing a keto/low carb diet.
