The Best Nachos and Swedish Plant Balls!

Alright, Memphis (or anyone who may be visiting Memphis at some point), you've got to try these BBQ Fajitas Nachos at Arnold's Smokehouse. This new-ish BBQ spot has a full vegan menu and a full meat menu, so they've got something for everyone. And these nachos blew me away. 

They're topped with a tangy, charred BBQ jackfruit that far surpasses any jackfruit I've ever had. I'm not the biggest jackfruit fan, but they do it exceptionally well. I also prefer my nachos with melted shreds over a cheesy sauce because the chips stay crispier. And they have that. But the real highlight are the chips themselves. They're deep-fried, so they're extra, extra crispy, and they've got the best seasoning on them. I would highly recommend these to anyone! The leftovers heated up beautifully in the air fryer, by the way. It's enough food for two to three people, so unless you're sharing or famished, you'll be bringing some home.

Another dish I've been loving lately are IKEA's new Plant Malls made into Swedish Meatballs with Lignonberry Jam, Mashed Potatoes, and Kale. I bought the balls and jam on my last trip to IKEA, and I've finally had a chance to cook them. For the Swedish meatball sauce, I used the sauce portion of this recipe. It had a coconut milk base, seasoned and thickened with cornstarch.
