It’s that time of year where we are all striving to eat better, but want to mix things up in the kitchen and try something new. Oh yes my friends, Easy Air Fryer Recipes are here to make it so much easier for you in the kitchen! As a nutritionist, I love taking those fried foods I used to love, and making them healthier and simple to make!

Why an Air Fryer?

I can come up with several reasons why I love my air fryer:

  • Saves me time as things cook much faster in the air fryer
  • Super convenient to heat up already frozen foods! I use this to make my kids hash browns, veggie patties, bean burgers, Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Gnocchi, and much more.
  • Veggies have never tasted better. You get that extra crispy texture that makes everyone in my family more likely to devour. Their favorite? My Buffalo Cauliflower Tots.
  • Easy and quick weeknight meals that don’t take up oven space
  • And the appetizers!!! It’s my favorite way to make some good apps

What is Whole30?

The Whole30 diet is taking 30 days to eat REAL FOOD without added preservatives, sugar, gluten, dairy, and alcohol. These foods are very prevalent in the SAD (Standard American Diet), and can build up inflammation over time. Cutting them out of your diet for 30 days can be so beneficial to the body! Better sleep, more energy, more mental clarity, and even weight loss are just a few of the added benefits. Many people notice so many other benefits!
