New Air Fryer and Brussels Sprouts


 Husband M bought a new air fryer.  He had been thinking about it for awhile and the sale price seemed good.  


My first attempt at air frying vegetables were these rather charred brussels sprouts.  Fortunately they were still edible!

It seems an air fryer is pretty much a convection oven, smaller thus hotter.  They work by circulating hot air with a fan giving foods a crispier finish.

  1. I love my airfryer! I am thinking to get a new, larger one, so I can roast a chicken in it.

  3. I must try that, Brussels Sprouts in the air fryer!
    Oh, and soup! Sadly the first ones I saw here were small and just not good yet.

  10. The cost has always kept me from getting one.

  13. I'll have to ask Danny if he's interested in getting one, Christine. Even though your first attempt was a bit disappointing, no doubt you'll see success in the long run.
    Blessings!

  15. Does it sound strange to say those brussels sprouts look great to me? I love veggies on the charred side. I need to get my air fryer out.

  19. I have one that I haven't gotten in the hang of using yet. Keep saving recipes to try, but so far it's just been eggplant fries and reheating frozen food. My daughter uses hers all the time though.
