Try my air fried brussels sprouts, crispy air fried rice, or crispy air fried french fries! This appliance makes food so crispy and delicious without all the extra calories from the deep fryer.

This air fryer parmesan asparagus is part of my Valentine’s Day menu that i’m serving with fresh lobster tails and garlic mashed potatoes. Using the air fryer to make these asparagus not only makes them taste 100x better, but it’s also quick and easy!
