Chickpeas in the air fryer are my favorite snack! Rinse one can, let sit out on towel for an hour to dry, put in air fryer at 375 for 18 min, shake and continue for 4 more min. Immediately spritz with olive oil spray and favorite seasonings- I used chili lime and salt! 0 point crunchy snack! Yum!

First time making stromboli. Looked funny but was delicious. Not used to working with the dough. 350F for 15 minutes.
Edit: I will not tolerate any bickering on my posts. I post for fun. Someone was very rude to another person. That person has been blocked and comments hidden. I apologize to the person who was verbally attacked. I am just learning to love cooking after a horrendous situation with a neighbor. My kitchen was torn apart for months due to her negligent behavior. I bought an air fryer to get back into something I used to enjoy. So, if you can't be nice, don't post! Thanks in advance.

🎉 New to the Air Fryer? Here Are 5 Tips You NEED to Know! 🍟🍗

Welcome to the world of air frying! If you just got an air fryer and aren’t sure where to start, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered. Here are some beginner tips to make sure you get the best out of your air fryer from the start! 💡👇

1. Preheat Your Air Fryer
Just like an oven, your air fryer benefits from a quick preheat. Preheat for 2-3 minutes before adding your food for an extra crispy finish! 🍔

2. Use a Little Oil for Crispy Perfection
Air fryers are healthier because they use less oil, but don’t skip it entirely! Lightly spray your food with oil for that golden, crispy exterior. Too much oil can lead to soggy results. 🥔

3. Don’t Overcrowd the Basket
For the crispiest food, make sure there’s space between your items. Overcrowding blocks the hot air from circulating properly. Cook in batches if you need to! 🍤

4. Shake the Basket
To ensure even cooking, give the basket a good shake halfway through cooking. This tip works especially well for fries, veggies, and smaller bites! 🔄

5. Experiment with Temperatures
Different foods need different temps! If you're cooking fries, start at 400°F (200°C), but for meats like chicken, 360°F (180°C) is usually perfect. Use your air fryer’s settings and adjust as needed! 🧑‍🍳
