Caramelization gives a lovely flavor to vegetables. Using the air fryer gives great caramelization, without overcooking the veggies or heating your whole house, as you would with a traditional oven. Try them as a side for your favorite entree, or toss them with greens and your favorite vinaigrette for a different salad.

Air fryers are taking over kitchens nationwide. They're basically mini convection ovens that 'fry' foods with little to no oil, less fat, and fewer calories. A heating element and fan bathe the food in hot air to produce a crispy finished product. Use 3 cups of assorted vegetables, cut into 1-inch pieces. Serve with desired dipping sauce.
