Recipes like Chicken Saltimbocca and Kale, Sausage & Pepper Pasta are tasty, filling and the perfect start to a new week.

01of 20Air-Fryer Spinach & Feta Turkey BurgersView RecipeSharp raw garlic, fresh herbs and tangy feta cheese superbly flavor these turkey burgers. Since the patties are air-fried with very little oil, there’s room to add a bit of olive oil to the meat to keep the patties from drying out. Serve with air-fried zucchini fries (see associated recipe). Source: EatingWell.com, January 2019
