Hello mates! Glad Monday and completely satisfied St. Patrick’s Day! What do you have got happening? P has spring break, the ladies have their standard actions, and we’re headed to San Diego later this week. I.can’t.wait.

For immediately’s put up, I needed 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 needed to inform you about our authentic air fryer that I bought just a few years in the past.

Once I first bought an air fryer, I used to be PUMPED. I knew it might be just like the Prompt 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 necessary to scrub it with cleaning soap and water and let it run for just a few hours to eliminate the chemical odor. That ought to have been a pink flag, however I did it. I washed it nicely, and let it run for just a few hours whereas we have been dwelling. Our home was instantly infused with a plastic odor, and I needed to open the again door to air out our home. After just a few hours, I made a sausage, potato, bell pepper, and onion state of affairs. All the things cooked fantastically — it was crispy on the skin and delicate on the within.

We ate most of our meals, referred to as it an evening… and the ladies and I have been violently sick 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 trying again, it was positively the air fryer.

Since we thought it was only a dangerous night time of meals, I used it once more just a few weeks later, and every part was tremendous. I most likely used it lots of of instances after that.

(Relaxation in energy)

Each time I took it out, it crossed my thoughts that the nonstick coating most likely wasn’t the healthiest, however as somebody who has to get meals on the desk shortly (like all mothers), I used to be similar to no matter. Once I went by my huge 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 record.

Right here’s what we ended up utilizing, as a result of the Pilot received it on the fighter group Christmas get together. (PS the prizes at this stuff are ridiculous: Traeger grills, ps, kindle, ipads, bluetooth audio system, tons of excellent stuff.)

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 It’s a lot larger than our outdated air fryer, cooked every part completely – salmon, rooster, potatoes, roasted veggies, and so on – and NO plastic, no chemical coatings.
