[@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel]

Well how kind you are, thank you SO MUCH for this sweet comment. It blesses my heart to know that my videos are helpful and yes, the holy spirit is in me ❤️👍🏼🤣

[@ceciliawerner4717]

Also just a tip, they have precut aluminum sheets at the DG store and Dollar Tree so much cheaper than the Reynolds brand especially with the ridiculous cost of items now! They work just as good, too!

[@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel]

@ceciliawerner4717 I get the Dollar Tree ones, love them!

[@pamking8137]

I love these recipes! Yes…the air fryer is a life changer! I have a similar version of your air fryer and have found that I don’t have to flip my food if you don’t put foil down. The air cooks the underside of the food. Just have to spray your metal rack!

[@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel]

Yes, same here. 👍🏼😊

[@karenwest5912]

Greetings from North Carolina! Just this week I received my first air fryer. I don’t have any idea what I’m getting myself into. So I’ve turned to KZbin to not only find recipes but also how to use the air fryer. Thank you for your tips and new recipes.

[@InTheKitchenWithMommaMel]

Oh you are in for a treat, I hope you enjoy all these recipes. I tried to include some real easy beginner every day use type recipes and some snacks as well as some actual dinner meal ideas, too!

[@brendamaun5455]

I love how you use the split screen to show the exact ingredients in their own containers. Very helpful. I love my air fryer, too. I think I'll try your potatoes first from this video.

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

These are amazing recipes. Like you, my airfryer just sat and collected dust. I eventually put it away. Lately, I brought it back out and have used it more. I love these recipes. Pop Jones is also a lover of PBJ sandwiches so i need to try this for him. I was drooling over the tortilla cheese bread, tastes like Papa Johns, I'm in. Great, delicious, beautiful airfryer meals. I must try some soon. ❤❤❤

[@nancyb4781]

I paused the video right after watching the tortilla garlic bread recipe and ran and made myself some. Then I came back and enjoyed the food and the rest of the video. It was so good.

[@danasandlin2435]

I absolutely love my airfryer! The dollar tree has unbleached parchment paper liners not. I picked up some today in both sizes. I heated a couple chicken tenders for my husband and it worked great and no clean up. ❤

[@vallis1469]

LOVE this Air Fryer video. Please do more. Thanks so much. Now!....which air fryer to purchase?

[@Lecon60]

I just used my air fryer for the first time. I did frozen chicken wings. I followed the directions on the bag and it came out great. Gourmia 7 quart. I have some Alaskan salmon and I'll be trying that next.

[@catinacheatwood3084]

Good recipes come to those who wait patiently 😊 Thanks, Mel!! ❤

[@kittymommax2]

I started a fire in my air fryer a few weeks ago using parchment paper! It burned up really fast so it was almost over as soon as it started, but I’ll never do that again. My instruction manual says not to use aluminum foil because it can raise the temperature & cause it to overheat. I hadn’t thought about a silicone liner, but I might give that a try! That salmon looked amazing! Gonna have to try that recipe for sure! Thanks for another great video!

[@jhayft0703]

That happened to me also. I had the parchment paper to closer to the top and it started to burn a little also!! When I used it earlier it was fine!!

[@dejonscales5217]

I want to thank you for all the recipes .I will have to put my airfry to work this summer. Thank you again for all the wonderful recipes. Take care, and I can't wait to see more of your recipes this year .

[@betty4gators]

Well once again you have been hyped up to cook! Your tips are out of this world - I never knew to spray my food in air fryer or lining with tinfoil (btw thanks for the honesty because my air fryer basket NEVER gets washed. I just wipe out and used liners). The recipes are great again - not a fish eater but the others we will try. Oh yea I am totally going to use the Upside App. Your sponsors are truly the only ones I ever use and do not get mad about having to listen to - this goes to what you allow on your channel.

Hi Mel! I just bought a toaster oven that can also air fry so I am brand new to air frying. This couldn't have come at a better time. I can use all the tips I can get. I haven't even used it yet because I was nervous. This video was so helpful. Thank you so much!!The tortilla cheese bread looks absolutely delicious. I will be trying that for sure. Gonna try the garlic toast pizza too. Honestly, all of these would be perfect for when I get home from work and don't feel like cooking but want something quick and yummy. Thanks again, Mel for all you do. I'm now excited to try my air fryer! I'm even excited to try the zucchini and it's not my favorite veggie! I hope you have a beautiful and blessed week. 💞

I hope we can still be friends, LoL, we rarely eat out, so no condiment packets. I've been working at using my air fryer more. I especially like it for cooking bacon, grilled cheese sandwiches, hot dogs, toasting buns. Lately I've been meal-prepping waffles and it's great for reheating. Today I meal-prepped beef taquitos using the air fryer, and these will reheat well in same. Quiche is another thing that reheats well in the air fryer vs. microwave.

[@melaneymattson3733]

Thanks so much Mel for the great air fryer recipes!! I love using my air fryer, haven't used my old "undependable" oven for a couple of years!! (Landlord won't replace it). Also, less energy used and doesn't heat of the whole kitchen. If you don't have one, you are missing out!! Melaney from SoCal

Honey we were in the same boat, I got this one a long time ago when we were waiting on parts to fix my oven. I baked in it, it does a bunch of different things. Once my oven got fixed I didn't think about it again and my momma kept telling me how much she used hers so I started using mine and now I'm hooked 😅

[@kippaseo8027]

If you have the drawer style air fryer you can use those unbleached coffee filters as liners. They help to absorb grease as well as excess moisture which helps the food get crispy rather than just steaming

I have the oven type air fryer sitting on my counter. Sure is pretty. I never use it. Your recipes look good so I’m willing to get it dirty to try it out. There were no instructions or recipes when I purchased it. I know everybody says not to use parchment or foil so it sits. Tomorrow night I will make the chicken with mayo and cheeses.Thank you for a dose of bravery.

[@apples.oranges]

Good evening Mel, Love watching your videos. Mel, happy for you getting your air fryer. We love ours too. Out of concern would you please find out about using foil on top of the air fry basket. Is it safe to do that? I tried this in mine and it blocked air flow. Mine is a different brand. Just concerned. God Bless and thank you kindly for sharing your yummy recipes 😊. Look I found this info online: What do you put under an air fryer basket in the oven? Place a foil-lined baking sheet on the rack below your air fry basket in a full-sized oven to help simplify cleanup. Make sure to leave space between the basket and the baking sheet for proper air flow.

So funny. I bought this toaster oven/air fryer hybrid 2 years ago. I tried to make wings and set off the smoke alarm and never pursued the air fryer option after that. I just used it to make sheet pan dinners, toast bread and heat up frozen pizza. I recently bought another air fryer and then came across your videos 😅. Probably could have save me a few bucks if I had seen your delicious recipes before hand but it's all good. I will probably use both anyway since I have two sons who come visit and have a good appetite.
