Air Fryers----

I am not ready for solids yet, but am thinking about an Air Fryer for when I am.

Can you tell me if they are worth the investment? Would you recommend it? If so is there a better one than not?

Thanks---------

    Thanks for recommending this. My old deep fryer is just sitting on my counter and I know we have broken up but I haven't thrown him out yet. We should get an air fryer. Everyone seems to like them

    Just made bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers in the air fryer. They came out great. One is all I could eat.

I appreciate your response. I know postings probably aren't meant for this, but in reducing calories I was looking for an appliance that would help me with this, when I am cooking again. I think I will buy one! Thanks again----------

I have one, I use it all the time, no oil needed, food taste delicious and crunchy, love to steam the sweet potatoes and then put them in the air fryer. Yummy.

Thanks for recommending this. My old deep fryer is just sitting on my counter and I know we have broken up but I haven't thrown him out yet. We should get an air fryer. Everyone seems to like them a lot and kids LOVE fries. Wondering how it does with chicken wings. At 2 mos out, I found I could still enjoy one chicken wing baked in oven (my old recipe) and eaten with hot sauce. What a delight that day was.

My parents were visiting when I was in my first week post-op, the air fryer was a big topic of conversation. We are from the south and love frying foods, so I was surprised to hear they cook nearly everything in a Big Boss Air Fryer. They love it, delicious food, quick easy cleaning. I am going to buy one off of Amazon here soon. Still on week 2 post-op, but looking ahead.


LOVE my air fryer! I make naked air fried chicken wings, and then toss them in sweet baby rays buffalo sauce. The sauce very low carb. I'm going to try low carb air fried chicken.


If you are going to use it then it's worth the cost. I bought one at kohls with a 30% off coupon. It wasn't too bad. I use it all the time.

These only took 8 mins in the air fryer.

We were just talking about air fryers in our Bariatric Support group tonight. Everyone who has purchased one says it is well worth the price. The said it also helps them stave off any residual fast food cravings they are having because everything comes out so crispy.

That is something I could use then. Thank you.

If I remember Kohl's had several brands. Which one did you go with? I may have a 30% off soon
