Happy Aloha Friday!! I’m back with my Friday Follow! Today is Shannon of @fitslowcookerqueen. If you aren’t following her yet, please do so. Her recipes are all so amazing. She is a recipe developer a 3x cookbook author. I’ve already made a few and have bookmarked. so many to make in the future. Her recipes are all about healthy but still looks indulgent and all about flavor. Shannon received a slow cooker as a wedding gift and like many small kitchen appliances given as wedding gifts they collect dust for a while. 6 months after getting it along with some health scare she decided to make the most of her new appliance and share her recipes with the world. Her recipes are not just all about the slow cooker, she also has instant pot, air fryer, grilled, baked, tons of fresh salads and more. She emphasizes paleo/whole30/low carb with her recipes. Here are just a few of her amazing creations-
• Slowcooker/Instant Pot Low Country Boil
• Air Fryer Chicken Wings
• Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole
• Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl
• Pan Seared Catfish with Slow Cooker Grits
• Slow Cooker Salsa Verde
• Paleo Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad
• Salmon with Fruit Salad
Just to name a few.
So go ahead and give Shannon a follow and bookmark recipes to make.

Happy Aloha Friday!! My foodie follow Friday is an

Happy Aloha Friday!! My foodie follow Friday is an amazing one. Many of you know her already,but I’d you don’t, you all need to know her. @alanakysar of the blog Fix, Feast, Flair.

Alana was born and raised in Hawaii. Her mom is Japanese, her dad is Northern European. Alana is known as “hapa” - half white, half brown. Her mix of cultures are seen in many of her recipes, just like many Hawaiian recipes. A mish-mash of so many cultures that combine to make he most amazing dishes. And she wrote one of the most gorgeous cookbooks I’ve ever owned, The Aloha Kitchen, last year. I’ve made well over half the recipes so far, many multiple times (hello mochiko chicken, mac salad, mochi, shoyu chicken, I could go on).
🌺
Alana is one of the nicest bloggers, she truly has “Aloha Spirit” and her recipes bring me back to all my times spent on Hawaii as a kid to an adult. The photos in her book are stunning, and her words on the history of Hawaiian food as well about her life growing up there are wonderful to read. This book is gorgeous. So is Alana.
Some of her recipes from her book-
• Shoyu Chicken plate lunch
• Ahi Poke
• Spam Musubi
• Guava and Lilikoi Malasadas
• Lilikoi Chiffon Pie
• Sweet Potato Haupia Bars
And she’s always making this amazing sourdough bread with purple sweet potato!!
🌺
Hawaiian food has so much history, and is a blend of cultures, like Alana, which makes her recipes and her book really stand out. You learn to appreciate her, her cultures and her food even more as you read her book and make her recipes.
🌺
I am giving away a copy of her book. Even though it’s been out a year already, I feel everyone needs a copy. To enter:

Happy Aloha Friday! I am so excited to share all about one of my newest foodie friends, @christincreativeco today for my Follow Friday. She is AMAZING and if you aren't following her already, you need to!

Christin is located in Atlanta via New York. Her family is originally from the Caribbean - Trinidad and Tobago to be exact. Her island background and culture influence the flavors in many of her recipes.
•
She has a degree in PR and Marketing and is an amazing stylist and photographer - food, products, lifestyle and travel. She does it all!
•

She’s had a passion for photography since High school and just started taking photos with her iPhone 3GS. It was mostly of random sceneries and things I ate. I started enjoying food shots more and started to focus more on it. Her parents got her a Canon camera and I've been on this path ever since
•
Christin's recipes are amazing. As soon as I scrolled her feed when I first discovered her BBQ Shrimp and Grits and had to make them that night for dinner. BEST shrimp and grits recipe I have ever had. You need to make it asap! Everything she makes looks amazing -
• Breakfast Sandwich - Bacon, Egg, Cheese on an Everything Bagel
•Trinidad Street Food - Pholourie - fried split pea dough balls with spices and a savory chutney (YUM)
• Smoked Paprika Scallops with truffle risotto
• Maple Stroopwafel Napoleon
• Strawberries with coconut cream
• Soba noodles with shrimp and baby bok choy
• Steak and charred pineapple chutney crostini
Just to name a few. I mean. It all looks so amazing. So colorful and fresh.
Not only does she showcase her recipes but meals she's had out and about in her travels, ideas to bookmark once its safe for everyone to start traveling again.
•
Do yourself an amazing favor today and give her a follow, scroll her page to see all the amazing things she makes and make those BBQ Shrimp and Grits ASAP. You won't be disappointed. I promise!!
