Hello pals! Blissful Monday and completely happy St. Patrick’s Day! What do you have got occurring? P has spring break, the ladies have their regular actions, and we’re headed to San Diego later this week. I.can’t.wait.

For immediately’s put up, I wished to talk a bit about unhazardous air fryers and share the one I’ve been utilizing and loving for the previous few months. Earlier than I share some choices, I wished to inform you about our authentic air fryer that I received a couple of years in the past.

Once I first received an air fryer, I used to be PUMPED. I knew it could be just like the On the spot Pot; one thing that intimidated me, however that I’d find yourself utilizing each day.

Earlier than utilizing it for the primary time, I learn on-line that it was vital to scrub it with cleaning soap and water and let it run for a couple of hours to do away with the chemical scent. That ought to have been a pink flag, however I did it. I washed it properly, and let it run for a couple of hours whereas we have been house. Our home was instantly infused with a plastic scent, and I needed to open the again door to air out our home. After a couple of hours, I made a sausage, potato, bell pepper, and onion scenario. All the pieces cooked fantastically — it was crispy on the surface and comfortable on the within.

We ate most of our meals, known as it an evening… and the ladies and I have been violently ailing all night time. I haven’t been that sick since I used to be a child… it was BAD. We thought it was the meals, however wanting again, it was positively the air fryer.

Since we thought it was only a unhealthy night time of meals, I used it once more a couple of weeks later, and every part was tremendous. I in all probability used it a whole lot of instances after that.

Each time I took it out, it crossed my thoughts that the nonstick coating in all probability wasn’t the healthiest, however as somebody who has to get meals on the desk shortly (like all mothers), I used to be identical to no matter. Once I went by means of my massive well being journey, I made extra modifications round the home, and getting a brand new air fryer was one of many final issues on the checklist.

The decision: I’m obsessive about this factor. It’s a lot larger than our previous air fryer, cooked every part completely – salmon, hen, potatoes, roasted veggies, and so forth – and NO plastic, no chemical coatings.
