Americans Try Super Spicy Korean Ramen NoodlesThere's a lot of buzz online about Korean instant ramen brand Nongshim's Shin Red Super Spicy Ramen (Ramyun or Ramyeon). We were surprised to see these at Lidl in Portugal and had to pick up a couple packages to try. Can Americans handle Shin Red level spicy? Time will tell..

| You better believe it! Meat loaf is an American comfort food and it can be an easy weeknight meal idea made even easier by using an air fryer! Wait. Is air fryer one word or two? :p | |
Does Portugal Have Meat Loaf?
Portugal has something called a "rolo de carne" (literally "meat roll") which is similar but more of a rolled up meat loaf with cheese or other filling stuffed inside. (Think of a pumpkin roll, but with meat and cheese).
This 'Portuguese meatloaf' can be tasty, but sometimes the ground meat gets a bit dried out during cooking since it's thinner in order to roll up around the recheio (Portuguese word for "filling").
So anyways... back to a simple meatloaf...
How To Make Meat LoaF In An Air Fryer
| Meat loaf is a blank canvas. You start with ground meat of your choice, shown here is beef, and then add salt & pepper and adapt it to any flavor profile you want. Some meat loaf recipes call for eggs and breadcrumbs (Oh by the way, many ground meat packages in Portugal already contain bread crumbs or similar, so please double check if you're eating gluten free) Just chuck everything in a big pan and combine it all with your hands, ideally. It feels gross, but you can do it! This working of the meat not only incorporates the flavors of your chosen spices, but also contributes to the end texture of the american rolo de carne. |  Raw Meat Loaf | Air Fryer Cooking |
If it grosses you out too much, don't worry, you can use a utensil, but you'll still want to get your hands involved to form the meatloaf well.
Once you have mixed everything together and shaped the meat into a loaf shape (lol), place it on the air fryer basket!

Cooking Meat Loaf In An Air Fryer
What temperature should I cook a meat loaf in an air fryer?
Try setting your air fryer for 190C (375F) and cook it for around 25 minutes if its 1 kilo (~2 pounds)
What is the internal temperature for meat loaf?
Ground beef, like in a meatloaf, should be cooked to 165 degrees internal temperature to ensure food safety.

How to tell if meatloaf is cooked inside?
Easy! Use an instant read meat thermometer. Ensure it reads 165F or ~74C.
What To Eat With MeatLoaf
There are so many delicious side dishes for meatloaf. For example:
- Mac and Cheese
- Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
- Corn on the Cob
- Corn Bread
- Brussel Sprouts with Bacon
- Steamed Veggies like Brocoli, Cauliflour, and Carrots
Barbecue Meat Loaf with Steamed Veggies and Quinoa Rice Blend
For this quick weeknight meal I just made a plain meat loaf.
When it was nearly done I added barbecue sauce and put it back in the air fryer to sizzle.
For sides we just had the default - frozen veggies from Lidl (this time broccoli, cauliflour, and carrots) along side rice with some quinoa mixed in.

It seems to be Korean season at Lidl and I'm here for it! Besides trying Shin Red Korean Instant Ramen, we picked up this squeeze pouch of Gochujang paste.
Vitasia Korean Style Gochujang Paste
What is Gochujang?
Gochujang is a Korean fermented chili paste. It is a versatile ingredient that adds depth with its sweet-spicy, umami flavor, giving Korean flair to your cooking!

How to Use Gochujang Paste
I decided to use the Gochujang paste in a ground beef and vegetable stirfry mixed with some left over rice.
It was a simple, unimpressive operation - Just bought some ground beef at Lidl as well as their frozen asian vegetable mix and cooked them up in our stainless steel pan along with the bit of leftover white rice that was hanging out in the fridge.

Added some generous squeezes of the Gochujang paste to the mix and tossed into a bowl. I actually didn't find it too spicy so I added a little extra swirl in my bowl.

I enjoyed this little Korean culinary diversion. I think it's really fun that Lidl brings such a wide range of internationally inspired products throughout the year. So even if you can't travel, you can always travel through food. ;)

It's not betty crocker, but i'll take it - Lidl Belbake Rainbow Chocolate Cookies Baking Mix Review
7/15/2025
You know when you go through your pantry and realize you have had something forever and need to use it up? Yeah... well, that's what happened with this Lidl cookie mix.
Belbake Rainbow Chocolate Cookies Baking Mix
In America baking aisles go on for almost an eternity with mixes for cakes, cookies, brownies, breads, and all manner of goodies. You have store brands, classics like Betty Crocker, premium baking mixes like Ghirardelli, speciality gluten free, allergen free cookie mixes and the list goes on..
In Portugal it's not quite like that and local pastelarias don't generally have great cookies. I grabbed this chocolate cookie mix with (knock off) m&ms for some day when I wanted cookies but didn't have the time to bother making them from scratch.

Based on most cookies I've had here, which are usually dry probably due to over baking combined with a lack of enough fat, my expectations were not super high and that's probably why it took me so long to make them.

Lidl Rainbow Chocolate Cookies Before Baking:
The cookie mix made a perfect quarter sheet tray of half a dozen cookies.
I used a cookie scoop to divide the dough and rounded the dough between my palms before placing the unbaked cookie dough on a sprayed cookie sheet.

Belbake Rainbow Chocolate COokie Baking Mix Review:
From low expectations to elation, these cookies were actually delicious! If you're careful not to over bake them, you will have a delightfully fudgy, soft cookie with a gentle crisp where it rested against the baking sheet. The rainbow candy pieces will make you smile like a kid. :)
We ate these so fast that I didn't even take any more pictures and I had to declare them dangerous to have on hand at all times. :p
These are easy cookies to make and enjoy. If you see the mix at Lidl Portugal, go ahead and grab a bag!

The Mcennedy American Way brand name from Lidl gives us a chuckle, but they aren't wrong that Honey BBQ wings are beloved in the States.

How to make honey bbq wings in the air fryer
Much like the Asia Curry Frozen Chicken Wings, we opted to test out the air fryer for the Mccenedy Honey BBQ wings.
Put Frozen Chicken Wings In Air Fryer!
We heated the air fryer to 200C (~400F) and began to check the chicken wings at 15 minutes, using our instant read meat thermometer to ensure a safe temperature for cooking chicken was reached (btw thats 73.9C or 165F) .
Side Note: If you don't already have a meat thermometer, can I just urge you to take the plunge and buy one? You only have to buy it once and it will save you from overcooking your meat and having to chew through rubber or undercooking it and needing an expensive ER visit with food poisoning.

Lidl Mcennedy honey bbq frozen chicken wing review
Once again, like the Vitasia Curry Wings, these made for easy protein in a hurry. They cooked up well in the air fryer, getting a little crispy while maintaining some sticky glaze.
which is better - Curry Wings or Honey BBQ Wings at Lidl?
It's a draw!
One of us preferred the curry wings while the other preferred the bbq. You'll have to give them a try and let us know which you prefer!

Gelatelli Choco Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich Review - Could This Be The Best Ice Cream Treat At Lidl?
7/14/2025
Summer in Algarve is hot. And I mean really hot. FYI, unless you're staying at a holiday (vacation) rental, most homes and apartments in Portugal do not have air conditioning. Even in the Algarve.
This makes ice cream basically a necessity for your health and well being. If you're going to survive summer in Algarve you need a steady supply of cold treats. We are working on trying every Ice Cream at Lidl and other Portuguese Grocery Stores so we can help you pick the very best treats to cool you down!

Gelatelli is a brand of frozen treats sold at European grocery chain Lidl. We picked these up at Lidl in Portugal.

Gelatelli Choco COokie Ice Cream Sandwich Nutrition Information
| Americans in Portugal will notice a difference in Nutrition Information on packaging in Europe. Typically there is always a column showing the nutritional information for 100 grams worth of the item. Sometimes there is a second column showing the nutrition facts for a single serving of the item next to it. I guess the idea is to make it easy to compare how nutritious two items are to one another - 100g of ice cream sandwich vs 100g of bbq chicken wings, for example. |  Nutrition Facts: Lidl Choco Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches |
A closer look at the Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich
Judging by the Choco Cookie box, this looks to be vanilla ice cream with some tiny chocolate chips sandwiched between two chocolate cookies with white chocolate chips.
This Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich Looks Better Than The Box!
Do you think the cookie photo on the box is an accurate representation of the ice cream sandwich in real life? Personally, I think in real life it looks even better than on the box and that's rare for advertising!
Stay Cool In Portugal With Ice Cream Sandwiches From Lidl Grocery Store!
At the side view, you can see that this cookie ice cream sandwich has some nice heft to it! And sure enough, there are those little chocolate specks all around.
After taking a bite, I'd say they put forth special effort to ensure the outside has plenty of chocolate pieces whereas there are not nearly as many inside. Nevertheless, what did we think of these cookie ice cream sandwiches?
Gelatelli Ice Cream Sandwich | Lidl Review Blog
Is this the best ice cream sandwich in portugal?
I had relatively low expectations for these ice cream sandwiches only because novelty ice creams usually sound like a great idea, but after you eat them they are kind of ... meh.
So I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the Gelatelli Choco Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches! The ice cream itself was just okay, but the two chocolate cookies making the "bun" of this sweet treat sandwich were really the stars of the show!
Good cookies are hard to come by in Portugal (American style cookies), and I actually thought these frozen cookies were legitimately good. Idk if I will lose credibility for saying that, but I stand by it! :)

This is the best ice cream sandwich I have had so far at Lidl and I wouldn't hesitate to grab a box if you're an ice cream sandwich kinda person. Remember, it's for your health. ;)
Stay cool!

How to cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer
| Can you cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer? Of course you can! We just used the convection oven temperature recommendation of 180C (~350F) and started checking them after 15 minutes. At that time we temped them using an instant read meat thermometer and flipped them over for a few more minutes. How many chicken wings fit in an air fryer? In our air fryer, 10 wings fit comfortably at a time. | Chicken Wings in Air Fryer Basket |
Lidl Vitasia Asian Curry Chicken WIngs Review
| For an easy midweek meal or late night snack, frozen wings can be a great choice to get some protein in. Making them in the air fryer is easy and healthier than deep frying. Overall we thought these were good, but occasionally found 'weird bits' or broken bones which we didn't love. The curry flavor is nice to shake things up a bit. 10 wings is a decent amount, but not quite enough for 2 people. Maybe I could have crammed some more in, but I wanted to leave room for the air to circulate and get some color and crisp. Pro Tip: Cook one round of chicken wings in the air fryer, then after you plate them, toss a second round in. They'll be cooked right when you're wishing you had more! ;) |  Asia Curry Flavored Chicken Wing Dings |

Most known for the Palácio Nacional da Ajuda (National Palace of Ajuda), Ajuda is an often overlooked Lisbon neighborhood with fewer tourists and plenty of nice views.
Views from Ajuda at Night
Nestled between infamous Belém waterfront and Parque Florestal de Monsanto, a huge park full of trails and greenery right in the heart of Lisbon, Ajuda is low key with a combination of grit and charm, not to mention some surprisingly great restaurants.
In this article we will share 5 Ajuda restaurants we tried on this week in Lisbon trip as well as a few outliers just for fun. ;)
Tlaloc un rincón mexicano
One thing many Americans miss when they move to Portugal is actually Mexican food. Great tacos are not especially easy to find in Portugal.
​
At Tlaloc Un Rincon Mexicano you can scratch that itch with birria tacos, tinga tacos, horchata, and do not forget the tres leches cake.

​Okay so this restaurant is not in Ajuda, it's in Benfica neighborhood and we hit it up after a medical appointment at Hospital da Luz in Amadora.
​
Hilariously, Fiesta Restro and Snack Bar is not at all a Mexican restaurant, but in fact a spot where you can enjoy Nepalese, Indian, and Portuguese food.

​
Don't skip the sparkling sangria, pani puri, and momos - they were highlights of this Lisbon trip!

Everest Curry & Sekuwa Corner
This was an Uber Eats order after a long convention day, so it came from the other side of Lisbon to our Ajuda airbnb. The restaurant was running a lot of BOGO offers, so we ended up with way too much food and it lasted for 2.5 meals!
​
We ordered Jeera rice, chicken stuffed naan, thai curry, and butter chicken. Everything was okay overall. The butter chicken was the best dish we ordered.
