I was recently given an air fryer, and don’t go assuming I’m here to just hail the bandwagon of the air fryer craze. As a mom of three and someone who just sometimes needs more time than I can actually spare, there are some things in life that are just worth sharing about. My new air fryer is definitely one of them! I was never really into the instant pot, since I am in love with my slow cooker and if I want it to be instant then I need it done NOW, not in an hour. I have many friends and family who are all about it though, and it is what works for them. Now, about my air fryer…
I am constantly looking for ways to cut out the grease, minimize the cleanup work and have tasty meals ready to go in as little time as possible since there is always something happening around here. Well, friends, let me tell you, this thing has done exactly that with so many of our usual favorites! On the nights when I have almost zero time and have to multitask with everybody suddenly hungry earlier than usual, it has truly been a nice gadget to have on hand. I’ve made everything from chicken tenders, fries and bacon to burgers, toasted broccoli, jalapeño poppers and even garlic bread! And all homemade, none frozen, with a full course dinner ready in 20 minutes or less.
This is the one I have, and it is a cinch to clean up too. Just wipe it out, wash it, dry it and you are good to go! The basket is even dishwasher safe, although I prefer to hand-wash mine.

Thumbs up for the air fryer! Anyone on the healthy track and looking for a new spin on old recipes, this is a fun recommendation for sure.
