Getting ready for the start of a new year? If you’re looking for a new way to eat healthy, you’re in luck. Instead of making the usual fruit or vegetable smoothie, try eating it in the form of veggies. You can cook frozen vegetables in your air fryer and turn them into a new and healthy treat.
How to make frozen veggies healthy
Frozen vegetables are popular because they are a great way to get a meal on the go without wasting a lot of time or energy. However, frozen veggies come with a few drawbacks, as they typically have high amounts of salt and can be high in calories. The method in this video will help you prepare frozen vegetables that have no added salt and are delicious and healthy.
Tips to cook frozen veggies in Air Fryer
Do you like to make a big pot of fried potatoes or French fries? I’ve made the switch to air frying and I absolutely love it! In this video, I’ll teach you how to cook frozen veggies in the air fryer. It’s perfect for cooking frozen mixed vegetables, peas, corn, and carrots. Air frying is a great way to cook because you can cook multiple things at the same time and prepare them with less oil and less heat. To make these vegetables in the air fryer, all you have to do is cut them into half-inch chunks, put them in a bowl, and throw them into the air fryer basket. Then, pop the lid on, turn the vent all the way down, and press start. Use the vent button to release some steam and turn the vent to vent-off so the heat won’t overcook the vegetables. They’ll take about 15 minutes to cook in the air fryer. To serve, I like to drizzle some salt and pepper on top, squeeze a little lemon on the top, and serve.
How to make veggie chips
It’s easy to forget about frozen veggies and other low-calorie ingredients that you keep in your freezer. However, they can be an easy and cost-effective way to make nutritious meals. And they can be incredibly delicious, too. Making frozen veggies can be as simple as just popping them into the air fryer and then baking them. And they don’t lose their nutrients by being frozen. All you have to do is first thaw the veggies in the fridge. Once they’re thawed, you can then pop them into the air fryer. Once the veggies are fried, they’ll still be as good as fresh veggies. And they’re great for those who don’t like having to cook their veggies. Plus, making frozen veggies doesn’t take too much time, since you don’t have to wait for the veggies to be completely cooked.
Quick and Easy ways to cook frozen veggies
Most frozen vegetables can be cooked quickly and easily in your air fryer. Start by thawing your frozen veggies in the microwave, or by running them in a cold water bath. This will stop the cooking process, which will extend the vegetables’ shelf life. Drain the water and pat the vegetables dry. They can then be placed in a bowl or dish that has been lined with paper towel to absorb excess moisture. That will make the veggie cuter and crispier. Then add some oil to the air fryer, and cook on high for 5 to 7 minutes. Some air fryers have a special oven function, which can also be used for this purpose.
Frozen Veggies are way better than fresh
If you’re looking for ways to make sure your veggies are getting as much nutrition as possible, then you should probably stick to frozen vegetables rather than fresh. When you cook frozen veggies, you allow them to become mushy and they lose their shape and structure. When you cook fresh vegetables, on the other hand, you allow them to stay intact and they stay firm and fresh. Frozen vegetables can also be much more convenient, which is one of the reasons why they’re so popular.
