5 Healthy Air Fryer Recipes Guide
May 8

There are always people who say that crispy food is not healthy.
Then I tell you, this is fake news.
When you have a fryer, pizza, French fries, and chicken wings can all become healthy.
Air fryer, this is a kitchen gadget that every healthy chef should have.
Essentially, this is a small convection oven. The working principle of an air fryer is to circulate hot air up to 400 degrees around the food, turning it into crispy food without all the fats that are usually required.
So, what healthy food can you make in an air fryer?
Well, i think the possibilities are limitless. French toast, onion rolls, potato pie, cheese baked sweet potatoes, avocado fries, etc. Below I have prepared 5 health lists for you that can be made with an air fryer. Let’s go and have a look.
Ingredients
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
4 (6-oz.) skinless center-cut salmon fillets
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups thinly sliced fennel (from 2 [15-oz.] heads fennel)
2/3 cup 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
1 garlic clove, grated
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice (from 1 orange)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
How
Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°F.
Step 2
Stir together parsley, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a small bowl. Brush salmon with oil; sprinkle evenly with herb mixture.
Step 3
Place 2 salmon fillets in air fryer basket, and cook at 350°F until desired degree of doneness, 10 minutes. Transfer to preheated oven to keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining fillets.
Step 4
While salmon cooks, toss together fennel, yogurt, garlic, orange juice, lemon juice, dill, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Serve salmon fillets over fennel salad.

Ingredients
1 (10-oz.) pkg. baby spinach leaves
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup 1% low-fat cottage cheese
1 ounce feta cheese, crumbled (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg white
1 teaspoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 (13- x 18-inch) sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
1 tablespoon olive oil
How
Step 1
Place spinach and water in a large pot; cook over high, stirring often, until wilted, 5 minutes. Drain spinach; cool about 10 minutes. Press firmly with a paper towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
Step 2
Stir together spinach, cottage cheese, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg white, zest, oregano, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper in medium bowl until well blended.
Step 3
Place 1 phyllo sheet on work surface. Brush lightly with oil using a pastry brush. Top with a second sheet of phyllo; brush with oil. Continue layering to form a stack of 4 oiled sheets. Working from the long side, cut the stack of phyllo sheets into 8 (2 1/4-inch wide) strips. Cut the strips in half, crosswise, to form 16 (2 1/4-inch wide) strips. Spoon about 1 tablespoon filling onto 1 short end of each strip. Fold one corner over the filling to create a triangle; continue folding back and forth to the end of the strip, creating a triangle-shaped phyllo packet.
Step 4
Lightly coat air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place 8 packets, seam side down, in the basket; lightly spray the tops. Cook at 375°F until phyllo is deep golden brown and crispy, 12 minutes, turning packets over halfway through cooking. Repeat with remaining phyllo packets. Serve warm or at room temperature.
