WHY COOK VEGGIES IN THE AIR FRYER?
I don’t know if eating enough vegetables is a problem for you like it is for me, but I struggle. I am always excited to find different ways to fix veggies so that I actually want to eat them!
Eating roasted vegetables is one of my favorites and making them in the air fryer is another delicious option.
It is fairly easy to get a nice crisp on vegetables in an air fryer by using some non-stick cooking spray. I love crispy veggies without the oil!

Hello Jamie,
I enjoy your recipes and look forward to getting your emails, but I was told to never use cooking sprays like Pam in your airfryer basket.
Hi Cindy, yes I have heard that using cooking sprays can be hard on the air fryer basket or trays, but honestly it isn’t something I am too worried about. It is worth it to me to be able to keep the food from sticking and being able to give the food a little extra crunch. Feel free to not use the cooking spray though!
