College students eat much better than I did in college! I remember frying bologna in a domed popcorn popper and hiding my toaster oven under something so the dorm leader didn't catch me in violation of the rules. But hey, I could have grilled cheese and bologna sandwiches in ten minutes!

[@HeidiLilley]

This is great. I would love it if you would do more recipes for one or two people. As a single person I get overwhelmed with all the recipes for larger families. Thanks.

[@empoweredcooks]

You're welcome! I'll be sure to do more of these!

[@nightowl8548]

I agree!!!

[@ericastout4552]

Me too 😇

[@anamikasoni2869]

Me too, would love to see more recipes for single people

[@gayleabramson1461]

Same

[@Annmarie-gd3fv]

Being a widow and living alone (with a brand new Cosori air fryer!!!!!), I would love more recipes for cooking for one or two. These recipes look delicious and am anxious to try them in my new air fryer. ❤ PS...all your kids are adorable!

[@empoweredcooks]

Well, thank you! It seems many like the smaller meals, so I will def keep them coming!

[@ivyme7318]

😊

[@conflictrescue5206]

Oh goodness, please keep doing recipe for TWO along with the rest of your other ideas. This was magnificent and thanks to your precious children for sharing.

[@empoweredcooks]

Thank you! Will do!

[@tammygermiller8307]

Your older children are as delightful as your younger children. Hayley is so very adorable!!! I really enjoyed this video and got some good ideas. What a lovely family you have.

[@empoweredcooks]

Aw thanks Tammy! ❤️

[@lyricessence]

And tall! I love it when kids dwarf their moms.

[@susiesnowflake3589]

Meals for 2 would be AWESOME! I don't know how to cook for "less the 10" cause my daddy taught me how to cook. But but it's me, my hubby & sometimes our daughter, when she graces us with her amazing presence. So I don't need to make huge amounts of food. So meals for 2 would be amazing!

[@empoweredcooks]

I got you! More to come!

[@denaraathome]

Would love to see more meals for two.

[@empoweredcooks]

You got it!

[@elainenicholls7648]

Yes Please more meals for 2. As always watching from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@empoweredcooks]

Gotcha! Thanks for watching too! :)

[@sharongardner3826]

Kathy, you definitely don't look old enough to have a 26 year old! Love the recipes for 2 as my husband and I are empty nesters. Hailey's awesome!

[@empoweredcooks]

Ha ha! Thanks Sharon! I'm 47... 21 when I had my first, ha ha. I feel older back then. But now it sure seems like I was a baby! 😂

[@patpeters6331]

@@empoweredcooks Oh to be 47 again. Enjoy it while you can. 😅

[@empoweredcooks]

lol - WILL DO! :)

[@happygirlinnc4657]

Thanks so much for sharing your recipes and your family with us. Being retired, I would love to see more recipes for 2 people. Thanks again.

[@empoweredcooks]

More to come!

[@user-cb7px7ci9g]

Cathy, Cathy, Cathy! You just get better and better! Love the two person meal recipes. Pay

[@sherryliberto6749]

Thanks for the tip of not having to use that bottom rack . Hailey is darling. Thanks for sharing. Have a super fantastic weekend 💜

[@empoweredcooks]

Aw thanks Sherry!

[@patsyhelms1102]

Yes Kathy. Love the video. I cook for only one. That small airfryer would be so practical for one or two. Mine is the seven qt and way to big except for a whole chicken. Please do more of these.Thank you.

[@kathleensigel9619]

Definitely more meals for two! Thank you

[@empoweredcooks]

Got it! ❤️

[@MsCuddlyOne]

Yes please on more meals for two!!!❤❤❤ loved this video and Haley did a great job!

[@empoweredcooks]

I agree, she was awesome! Wish she didn't live far from me!

[@Ruthann22]

I love these meals for two, especially since I’m retired and usually am only cooking for myself and my husband. Loved seeing more of your beautiful children! 💞

[@pamgroom7117]

Thanks for the meals for two. Yes!...to more of those. Hubbie and I are just empty nested and the college kids now want their own air fryers, so this topic was GREAT!

[@empoweredcooks]

You are so welcome!

[@ellencox7168]

This is great! I love my Cosori Dual blaze and I'm setting my sights on this one so I don't have to clean and use the dual blaze twice for 1 meal! Thanks so much for this great presentation 💕😊

[@empoweredcooks]

You're so welcome, Ellen! Since you have so much space in the Dual Blaze, consider doing more foods simultaneously, side by side. Like Haley showed in the 2nd recipe! Appreciate you being here by the way! ❤️

[@robylove9190]

It's great to see the older kids!

[@ladyj.klmnop]

Yes, please! 😊 more for 2! Great vid with the kids.... ❤

[@empoweredcooks]

Thank you! I will for sure do more!

[@Daytonagail]

Hayley is amazing! Thank you for sharing so many easy delish looking meals for 1 or 2!

[@empoweredcooks]

I agree, Haley IS amazing! :) And you're welcome - looks like I need to do more videos for 1 or 2!

[@darlaboyle1074]

OMGoodness!!! Haley is absolutely adorable and your son is very handsome! These recipes look amazing. I can't wait to try them. Yes, I would love to see more meals for 2 since it's just me and my hubby. Great job, Haley.

[@empoweredcooks]

:) Thank you Darla! I will get on it!

[@happyJan2516]

Wow, Kathy how do you even have young adult children, you look way too young 😊 they are such a credit to you and so good at cooking. Your family dynamics are amazing too, such a tonic to see. Great recipes too, as always thank you, Jan, from southern UK 👏🏻😍🍽🧂xx

[@empoweredcooks]

Hi Jan! Thanks for your kind words! :) I was married at 19 and 21 when I had my first lol. I am very blessed!

[@theresac2944]

Hi Cathy , great recipes ❤️🙏🏼💙. Love to see your beautiful growing family . I love how independent your two older ones are .❤️❤️❤️

[@karenmackie9665]

That’s my air fryer! So happy to see you take out the rack. Never know when to use it or take it out, but it is so easy to clean. Great recipes for 1-2 people. (I love your cookbook!!).

[@empoweredcooks]

Yay!!! Yes, I decided that for things that need a crispy finish, I'd want the rack. Otherwise, if just baking like I would in the oven, I take the rack out. And I am so glad you are loving my cookbook! Thanks for supporting me!

[@shoffmann70]

Love the quick chicken/broccoli and sausage/vegie recipes! I have the original Cosori 5.8qt, and use it at least 3 times a week.

[@empoweredcooks]

YES! It was all so good!

[@stoneyvance7720]

I like the tool she got the dish out with. I always have trouble with that.

[@empoweredcooks]

Here it is! ❤️ amzn.to/3Ak1MDm

[@missy67]

Good job Hailey and your son too! (didn't catch his name) Love those different colors of air fryers - especially the light green!

[@empoweredcooks]

The green is really beautiful!

[@daphnemiller6767]

Thank you! I am adding the 4 qt to my collection and enjoyed watching you and the kids.

[@dawnrouse2439]

Beautiful family Kathy! Hailey you did amazing! Loved the simple recipes. The cosori lightweight is so cute!

[@goldensmamma]

I would love to have more of these recipes for one or two for sure. We don't like eating out or ordering those meals you prep yourself.I love these types of recipes for sure !

[@007xyzzy]

Amazing! Always watching your channel! Daughter did a fantastic job! Let’s see more of her ..l

[@MauriceQWatson]

Love this! Definitely more for 2 person meals. I just purchased the Cosori Pro LE 5.0-Quart Air Fryer. Would love if you feature that one and the Cosori LITE for 2 person meals

[@51andhappy44]

I love these easy peasy recipes!

[@empoweredcooks]

Same! 😁

[@aliagnes6166]

Big families are awesome! Love all your videos, especially when the kids are involved. Blessings

[@lisaclose6551]

I have just found you while looking for an air fryer and binge watched loads of your videos. Thank you for all your brilliant recipes and tips…I have found you so helpful and enjoyable to watch

[@gingerengels3659]

We are getting our Cosori 4 qt on Thursday and hubby and I are trying to eat healthier. LOVE these recipes because they aren't fancy or complicated. We are retired and don't need or want anything expensive or "foo foo" so loved the recipes! Keep them coming.

[@Banagal]

Yes, please show more meals for two. These were great recipes and I loved the 4 qt air fryer. I haven’t seen that size yet, but will check out your link. Home cooked meal with less hassle and easy clean up. My kind of cooking!

[@susanfender5901]

I would definitely like to see more recipes for one or two people. This was awesome!

[@kimberlygorcey4290]

As my late husband, who was a professional chef, would even tell his cooks, " it is easier to add than subtract while cooking . "

[@mar4kl]

Timely video! One of my older daughters came home for a visit, so I've been making small quantities of some things that my wife and youngest daughter won't eat. I found an interesting-looking sweet potato recipe, and modified it for one or two servings: 1 medium to large sweet potato, about a tablespoon each of brown sugar, oil (I used canola) and rosemary, and 1/4 cup chopped pecans (which I forgot). Cut the sweet potato into 1 inch cubes, mix with the other ingredients in a bowl until everything is well coated, and cook in the air fryer for 10 minutes at 375F, shaking after 5 minutes. It was delicious, even without the pecans. Next time I cook this, in addition to remembering the pecans, I will probably spray some oil in the air fryer just to prevent sticking, as the carmelized sugar was a bit hard to clean out afterwards.

[@empoweredcooks]

Mmmm, sounds so tasty! I will add this one to the list!

[@lynardok6654]

Oh yes Please! More AF meals for 1-2!! Love 💕 these . Thank you!

[@MultiLadybug72]

I love my Cosori Blaze....BUT....if I didn't already have the Blaze, I'd definitely get the new small Cosori you used in this video. It's a perfect size for a retired couple as well as college kids .

[@empoweredcooks]

Yes! The only difference is that you'd still need to flip/rotate.

[@dotmorton4540]

Dot from UK Another great video, I'm a retired widow so more recipes for one or two persons please. Thank you for sharing, lots of love Dot x

[@jamesblondeau1029]

Yes please. More cooking for two recipes.

Thank you so much for the internal dimensions of the cosori lite!! I have searched, I couldn't find it, even on their website. Love your videos

You are REALLY making me get creative with my recipes. It is absolutely the best appliance in my kitchen. I have the Instant pot air fryer. Thanks for all the hard work.

[@nicoletierheimer3546]

I love this and all your kids are so cute! Mine is a junior in college and I bought him a Cosori air fryer for him and 4 roomies!

[@empoweredcooks]

I bet they love it! I gave my siblings air fryers for Christmas and now all their college aged kids are wanting them. :) (So yes, I gave two of these away)

[@aferouge]

Hailey seems so sweet, good job Mom!

[@empoweredcooks]

Thank you! She is awesome!

Would like more meals for one or two. Great video! I've been using your cookbook for all my air fryer meals. God Bless you and your family. Keep up the great work and I'll keep cooking.

This was so awesome with your kids!!, Have Hailey email you some of her stuff and you could add it in with yours. Those recipes were marvelous!

Super great ideas! We are a family of five so I can just double or triple some of these

[@empoweredcooks]

Yep!

[@pattiwilkinson6753]

I plan on getting a Cosori air fryer for my son and DIL for Christmas, and one for me too! Your dog is adorable, looks just like my sweet and sassy maltipoo!

[@charmainemrtnz]

I liked that you could cook in the container without a basket. I cannot do that with mine.

[@francisraffle2948]

I've got the corsori 5.5 the controls are on the front it's the best thing jve ever bought

[@nancyberg2942]

There are two of us empty nesters. Would love more air fryer meals for 2. Just found your channel and love your videos!

[@kathmann7402]

Cathy I bought the Cosori air fryer because of your videos and purchased your cookbook and love it. I would have loved a small section on reheating items. I had leftover restaurant garlic bread and Stromboli and was afraid I would burn it…..chickened out and used the microwave. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@lindaevans6461]

Awesome, yes need more recipes for one. I have a smaller air fryer and love using it.

[@1daizie]

Great idea!!! Love ALL you do for others!!!

[@empoweredcooks]

So glad! And thank you! :)

[@christinaobrien615]

Please do more one or two serving sizes for the air fryer. It would be greatly appreciated.

[@eldonacronemeyer9638]

I’ve had the cosori late for court for about a month now and I have made almost everyone of those air fryer recipes that you showed today in your video and let me just say thank you for introducing me to cosori it made my life a whole lot easier even though I love my smart 7quart cosori when I don’t have my kids comming over thank you for this video keep up the good work and a blessed weekend

[@empoweredcooks]

Aw, you are so welcome, Eldona! Glad to have you as a subscriber!

[@greattattoos]

This is amazing! Lot of great tips. Kids did amazing job as well. I love your son’s tip about can use it to meal prep.

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

Good morning Kathy. That looks delicious. Happy Labor Day.

[@freshenuf1]

I have a 4qt. air fryer that I suspect is an off brand of Cosori. Just about everything is the same, size, basket, digital readouts, wattage, etc. The name is Fabuletta and cost me about $69 on Amazon. I am an experienced air fryer user and had a top brand previously. That's why I love my "off" brand because it looks and performs like one of the top 10 brands in this category. I even use the Cosori air fryer cookbook that I downloaded. There's just 2 in our household so it's perfect.

[@xcsglee]

Hello Hayley you're a great model behind your mum there.

[@empoweredcooks]

😂

[@xcsglee]

@@empoweredcooks thank you for giving me a like on your video I found it very interesting because I like shopping on a budget one reason is I don't have much money and a second reason is I try not to eat too much here in England where I live there is lots of fruit and vegetables around so I like to eat healthy if I can but I do like chicken wings and I make them from scratch.

[@wendyk3657]

I have a 1.2 L air fryer (it’s small). I find it hard to cook for one, but these meals are great. Can’t wait to try them.

[@anitaholmes6824]

This was so enjoyable....thanks for sharing!

[@empoweredcooks]

[@DianeC.]

Hi Cathy!!! You have a nice big family. That's wonderful you all got together. Nice family. Thank you again for all the great recipes. I think the bigger AF are way better. That's the only think I would say I dint like about my AF. Not enough room!!! I will be trying your recipes and sending this video to my family. Great video my dear friend!!!...

Great video! Loved seeing more of your family. It would be great to see more keto meals, too.

[@GregoriusAM]

I love your videos. I really wish you would review toaster ovens and smart ovens, like Breville, Cosori, etc. There are tons of them that I’m trying to figure out which one is best for me. I have the Cosori 5 qt LE air fryer but want to move up to a smart oven. 😊

[@dianam9028]

Oh wow I just finished eating air-fryer tater tots with some chicken. Tater tot casserole looks amazing!! 🤗 Your food always looks delicious and I really appreciate all that you do. 🌻😊 Cute dog btw. 💜

Just bought a Cosori Lite based on your video. I'm autistic and need something simple, and this seems like it fits the bill. Thank you for showing these off, and I'll be making the Totchos after I get the air fryer in.

[@empoweredcooks]

Glad you were able to find one you like! Hope the totchos go well!

[@nathanieleslavik]

@@empoweredcooks Thank you!

[@JP_813]

Being Single and cooking a lot for myself, I love these Recipe for Two. I may have to get the Cosori Lite, I think I may be able to do better (cleaner) then using my Ninja 9in1 Air Fryer toaster oven.

[@smichel4529]

I'm curious what you think of the Lite air fryer compared to the Pro 3.7qt air fryer? I can see that the design of the Lite is sleeker but the Pro 3.7 is also a smaller unit that would be good for 1-2 people. I like that there is a removable basket in the Pro version and there are more pre-sets but is the technology in the newer "Lite" more advanced? Would the removable basket be handier than the tray at the bottom of the Lite version? Thanks for your input! I'm excited to get one ordered for myself as an early Christmas present!

[@stephanie2]

Awesome video. Hailey did an amazing job

[@empoweredcooks]

Hey Cathy I got baptized in a river too just a couple of weeks ago it looks very similar to where you were with your family. Awesome recipes as well!!

[@empoweredcooks]

That's awesome, congrats!

[@barbaralu8383]

Which one would you recommend, this new smart 4qt one but with less preset recipes or the old 3.7qt one with more preset recipes but not “smart”? I don’t really find the “smart” feature adds a lot of value, but I do like it to be a little more spacious. Scratching my head to make a decision here…😅

[@minnesotagal507]

Love the chick pea recipe.

[@michaelb4512]

Do you have any videos on the instant vortex mini or can tell me is it worth it?

[@htz70]

I know you like the Cosori Lite 4-qt, but what are your thoughts on the Instant Vortex Plus 4-qt? It has dehydrate, it can disable the loud beeps, and its dial controller looks nice.. but reviews complain the bad smell and the sticker on the basket are both hard to fully remove. I'd love to see these two compared.

[@camiladias5724]

I'm new to the air fryer world, and your channel has been incredibly helpful. I'm on the fence between the LITE 4Qt and the 5Qt, - They both feature a sleek design, which I love, so it's hard to choose! Are there any major differences (besides size) between them? Performance, noise, cleaning etc. Thanks

[@sarahnichols8485]

Try adding a little salt to those chopped tomatoes before they sit and wait on the rest of the meal coming out of the air fryer. Easy addition of flavor.
