Comment of the Week

“Avocado Mayo: Great for fish sticks! Put mayo in a plastic bag with cut of fish, squish around until all are coated in mayo, roll in a mixture of crushed pork rinds, parmesan cheese, and smoked paprika or other spices. Cook in air fryer. Serve with chipotle lime Avocado mayo. Yum yum!”
