Thank you for this one. I'm a meat lover, but with prices the way they are, I'm barely eating it once a month. Always appreciate grain/bean/frozen veg options to amp up what my garden is producing. Here is my best budget tip that I suspect will be novel. You can get 8 oz of Great Value Smoked Sea Salt for $4.84. That's expensive for salt, but about half what you'd find elsewhere for smoked salt. When cooking in the air fryer, especially for meatless meals, it adds an amazing savory grilled flavor.
I had a 2 lb pkg of ground beef to cook. So I did it in 2 batches 1 lb at a time. The first lb, I followed your lead and put foil on the bottom. It was a pain to scoop the meat out and then have to deal with the greasy grate and the teeny pieces of meat that fell through, etc. So, the next batch I put the meat directly into the bottom of the pan and cooked it down there. Then used the grate by putting it over the cooked meat (as a fitted strainer), held it in place and poured the grease into my grease can and it was a lot less messy.
I am addicted to your videos. Thank you for sharing all of your recipes and secrets!
So glad to see someone else using a scale. The best and easiest way to cook and bake
YES so easy!!! :)
I love the way you could seriously live with just an air frier or 2, in your kitchen….and that’s it! Amazing how you literally make anything in one! Love your recipes
I did some tater tot today in air fryer, cooked some bacon crumble them up and put over the cooked tots and added some cheese let it melt.. ummmm so good. Love the videos
I've been scoping out all your videos and just ordered the 5.8 Q Cosori Pro, which arrives tomorrow. SO excited to try all these recipes. Love your frugality!
This was great, would really like to see more of these meals for one or two 👍
Just got my very first air fryer...the Cosori Dual Blaze. My first try was a large bag of Brussels Sprouts and Roasted potatoes. So easy and my grandson who only eats the crisped leaves of the sprouts actually ate some of the whole ones that got nice and crispy. WIN!!!
My main money saving tip is to be sure we eat what we buy. We have thrown out a lot of food at times, but I’m really making an effort to make sure we use as much as possible before it goes bad.
This is a great video. So many simple and good ideas. I like that many of your recipes include vegetables. 🥦🥕🌽🌶
This is so true!
You're definitely an amazing lady here with air fryer cooking Kathy! Love watching you and your sweet kids throughout your videos. We got an air fryer gifted to us last Christmas and have been using it for a few things. There's just the two of us, now, but I would have loved to have this appliance when I was cooking for my family. So great of you to spend your time sharing all you do and I thank you. I do find I have used the air fryer more than the instapot we got 2 years ago. ❤
I recently found canned black beans with jalapeño by Ortega. All Mexican seasonings are included. I sliced Turkey Cheddar sausage and air fried until they where a bit toasty. Added the beans, lightly drained, and air fried until hot. Topped with cheese to melt. It came out delicious! I had found the case of beans on Amazon, about $1 a can, the sausage on sale for $3.99. This made 2 good sized meals for me.
I had the same problem with my tortilla's flying open during air fryer cooking; so I used your idea of placing a metal grate, or small metal pie pan on top of the food - works great! I love these air fryer recipes. You have some great ideas! Thanks for sharing.
My best money saving meal time is to get invited to as many cookouts and dinners as possible 😋
Love this! 😂
Thanks for the veggie forward recipes. Definitely going to try the quinoa stuffed zucchini .
Hi Cathy - thank you for teaching me how to use my air friers (yes, I own two Cosoris now)! I love your videos and cookbook! My money saver is my small, but mighty hand held FoodSaver sealer. I love the concept of the FoodSaver, but don’t always love the big machine (no room on my counter) and making my own bags. I found the little rechargeable hand held and buy the pre-made “zip lock” bags that go with it. The pre made bags are an investment, but I wash them well, air dry them and use them many times. The money I save on tossing out freezer burned food more than makes up for the cost of the bags. Thanks again! ❤️
My money saving tip is to always use what you have on hand if at all possible. I love your video's and you teach so well. Thank you. Because of you, I got brave enough to get my first air fryer to try it out. Today will be the first time I am using it. Fingers crossed.
You've got this, Marcia! Can't wait to hear how it goes!
Thank you for all these tips and recipes. I don’t have an air fryer yet. Still deciding if I want a single basket or dual basket. But have gotten use of air flyers at my friends.
I love how you let your kids be honest with their ratings through your videos, even if they give it a lower rating. Also love how you are always honest and even keep when things don’t go right.
Thanks Leo! Really appreciate your positive and kind words :)
@@empoweredcooks welcome Cathy! Of course.
I discovered something interesting with the Cosori 5.8 qt. I had to buy a new basket, because the handle broke away from the basket. I found out if that happens, save the handle! If you want to cook food without the basket, the handle comes in handy to still use the air fryer.
Thanks Cathy, for some fresh ideas! I marked and tagged the ones you used from your book so I’m all set to go with more quick and cheap meals!!! We all need them these days with the skyrocketing costs…keep them coming, kiddo! (Love your taste testers!)🥰
I tried the sausage potato and onion tonight. My husband cant stop telling me how much he loved it! Thanks.
You are a life savor for all the single guys
Hello Cathy!!! I really enjoyed your recipes for today. They all really do look so...delicious. I Thank you for doing this for us. I will be sending this to my family. What great ideas!!! What shall I make first. As always I enjoy all you nice taste testers!!! Great video my sweet friend!!!
The honey garlic meatballs with brocolli and rice is awesome and so easy to make!
Everything you made looks delicious and healthy. Thank you so much for the videos!! ✨️
Happy Birthday Logan!
Thank you, Cathy!!! I can’t wait to try these recipes!
We love “taco potato” around my home. Bake a potato like regular, and cook up your taco meat. Make up your baked potato like you would regularly eat it (butter n sour cream S&P) and top with taco meat, cheese, dollop of sour cream and taco sauce (hot or mild, whatever) and it’s super yummy, and filling!!!
I love your channel, I binge watch it!
Great recipes. Will be trying them. Thanks so much.
First of all you’re doing an amazing job man I mean you’ve built a wonderful platform and on top of that I just clicked you link to Amazon and it soo well organized and easy wow i ordered your book and the spray bottle because mines just throws a stream of oil lol
While I like all the recipes and definitely have a few favourites (Cdn. spelling! 😊), my absolute favourite is the bean and cheese burrito. Since I am the only one that eats them, I usually buy them frozen and keep some on hand for when I am making a meal for only myself. However, your recipe is so easy, I'm going to be doing them myself from now on. 😋
You’re awesome! I appreciate your videos! I always learn from you to make my life easier. Thank you for sharing. You have a fabulous day! Your children are the best and live the honesty from your youngest! ♥️
Ghee is a really awesome option for oils .. super high heat level, and tastier than oils.
Use a potato masher for the ground turkey/beef. Game changer!
Fantastic recipe ideas loved them all
It all look so delicious! 😋 I love quinoa too. Thank you for the wonderful recipes. 🌸☺🌼
Fantastic recipe ideas! Thank you sooooo much! God bless 🙏❤️🙏
I like making pork and pineapple stir fry when I'm feeling lazy 😅
Eckridge jalapeno cheddar sausage chopped
One pineapple tidbits fruit cup
Frozen snap peas
Sweet and sour sauce
Super good! Even a little charred 😂
Wonderful ideas! Yummy! Thank you!
I love your air fryer recipes. I sometimes have to Google the ingedints as Amricans sometimes use different terminology yo us in the UK. This is not a problem and I am learning something new everyday. xx
Awesome video. Looks all so delicious
Love all your recipes!
These are wonderful ideas. Thanks! 😁
Love your videos. Thank you!
I love your videos and your cookbook is amazing!!!!!!
Thank you so much! So glad to hear they are helpful!
This was great, thanks!
I made the pasta and it was a big hit thank you so much for shearing
OH so man ideas with these. Even making up a couple of my own. Wow you did it again. Great!!
I really enjoy your channel. I just shared it with another friend who just got an air fryer. Have a great day!
Great recipes!!
Love this
Thanks again!
You don’t need a tool to remove avocado pit, just place it on the counter, push your knife blade into the pit and give a twist. It will come right out. There’s probably a video on it 😄
Thank you for all of your recipes. I had just recently bought an air fryer and it's an 8 quart power XL and I dearly love it. I love how fast I can make a baked potato in it and I can do toast and I've done frozen french fries and of course biscuits and I can't wait to experiment with more things. Do you have a link to where I can get some of the accessories for my air fryer??
All I can say is Fabulous, Fabulous, Fabulous!
I do your recipe with zuchinnis with lentils instead of quinoa, you cook everything together, vegetables and lentils (i used red ones) and I f
ollow you recipe for everything else. Amazing!
fabulous kathy, thanks. i'm still bonding with my dual so this is helpful.
Thanks for another great video. Definitely going to try the honey garlic meatballs, poor man's lasagna, and the cowboy dinner next. Coincidentally, I've added 1" to my waistline since purchasing my Cosori air fryer. Hmmm......
Those honey meatballs look so delicious! Can't wait to try them :-)
Definitely going to try making most of these!! ❤ already do the ramen one!! 😋
It's so good, right!?
Have you tried making the meatball sauce by mixing cocktail sauce with grape jelly? It is so good.
Great ideas! Would you entertain the idea of doing a review on an instant pot, air fryer combo? Thinking about getting one for my college age daughter. Love your channel!!
I ordered your cookbook yesterday on Amazon
I have two questions:
If we don’t have the dual blaze, on recipes where you take the grate out, would an aluminum pan in our regular air fryers have a similar effect?
Secondly, on the items you say freeze well, do you defrost first? (Specifically the burritos and bbq burritos)
Thank you
Thank you.
You're welcome!
I make something similar to the chicken and veggies recipe but use soy-free Italian dressing and a bit of extra garlic too...for the vampires 😊
Love her videos 🙂
Aw, thanks!
I use hamburger and chicken but so expensive. I got to Costco and get hamburger and chunk it out to freeze, or cook it up, put in freezer for tacos, spaghetti, whatever. And same with chicken. I buy at Costco and then cook up and shred or cube and freeze for go to meals
...and your cookbook 😊
Hola mi amigo 👋 👋🙏
Thanks for sharing ☺️
Love your vids I've learned so much so well done
To much prosessed food is garbage nice to see fresh ingredients 😜 never ate much prosessed food n trying to eat even less now
Cheers J&D ✌️
So glad you are finding them helpful!

Keep tabs on what's already in your fridge/freezer/pantry before hitting the grocery store. I still scare/amaze myself with what I have in house, when I'm thinking "there's nothing to eat, here"..
I always learn a lot from you. I would NOT be using the airfryer like I do if not for your videos, thank you!
Mine is similar to your sweet potato dish. I oil and bake russet or sweet potatoes whole, then slice in half and break them up in the skins, then top with my beans (i cook from dried and always have a variety of cooked beans in the freezer). Then I top with scallions, plain yogurt, tomatoes, cucumber, and cheese. I think of it as potatoes and beans with a salad on top.
If I’m feeling ambitious, I’ll melt the cheese on the potatoes to bubbly before adding the salad fixins.
I mix canned chicken or tuna with sour cream..place on a tortilla, cover with cheeses of your choice,. roll like a burrito to keep it from being messy,boil spray and cook it n the air fryer. I go 3 mins on each side....kids and grand kids love them
My motto is "cook once, eat twice" so Tuesday's dinner might also be lunch on Thursday. However, my family sometimes decides they want seconds or even thirds! So much for meal prepping! Instead of letting them eat two meals at once, package up the leftovers and prep a simple dessert like fruit salad, jello, or pudding.
im going to move to russia, cheaper food and energy, none of the usa weird sexual lifestyles stuff et cetera, thats my tip to a better life
I think I've persuaded my mom to get me an Air fryer for My BIRTHDAY
I am most excited about the lasagna!
To remove avocado pit..after cutting in half...place the half with the pit on the cutting board...gently whack the seed with the blade of the knife so it cuts in just a bit..hold the avocado as you slowly turn the knife sideways, twisting the pit free...voila! Oh..and yes you can still use that pit to grow 🪴 it 👍😉😁
Hello from Australia, absolutely love your recipes, particularly the air fryer ones, do you have a video on air fryer recipes for one, best wishes, Beth
Hi Beth, I don't have a video for recipes for one. But you can cut many of these recipes in half and be able to enjoy them for one. And, you might have some leftovers to enjoy as well :) Hope this helps!
The way you said “now go clean your room” is so funny 💀

Key up good work beautiful
Mother made the cowboy dish but always called it "campfire stew" I dont care what its called. I love it.
Try using Ranch Style Beans in place of the black beans; and instead of corn add can stewed tomatoes, makes price little higher here but is so good.
Hi new to your channel. Love your videos. Also love your cheese grater. Where did you find it? I’m sure you’ve answered this before. Just couldn’t find it. Thank you and also thank you for the link to your cookbook. 👩🍳
I have links to all my favorite products here airfryertools.com/
What kind of flexible cutting mats do you use? Also the gloves to mix with your hands.
The ultimate teen complete! It's bustin! You know you scored when they say that.
Thank you for the video. Could you explain why you added a piece a foil in the middle of the air fryer? Thank you
Could you remove the basket and cook the meatballs that way? So glad you are doing recipes from your cookbook. We do less meat and more quinoa and/or bean meals.
Hi Cathy you should tri chicken breast flatten then in floore then in eggs mix and into some crush corn flake so crunchy and delicious
Finally no need for hot plates. Corsori does it all 🖤 n
I have the same air fryer as u!
We leave the water on our ramen noodles and add the seasoning so it creates a soup with the noodles:)
I used to do it like that but the sodium content is very high..if not wrong about 1000 mg of sodium or more in 1 bag...its the seasoning that's high not the noodles...I miss eating them because of high blood pressure.
@@dianapardo6872 I use 1/4 to 1/2 the seasoning packet. Still get the flavor with much less salt. I save the rest of the packet for the next ramen noodles dish. Unopened packets I save for my homemade chicken soup.
I like the broth too. I don’t eat them daily, so I don’t worry too much about the salt for one meal.
This has nothing to do with the recipes lol but we bought and LOVE our cosori air fryer thanks to you :) I think it’s the cosori pro? Anywho can you give any tips on how to touch the buttons so they work? I find myself cursing at the fryer because half the time touching the button pad doesn’t seem to do anything as far as change prompts. Is there a secret to how I should be touching this? (Sorry that last sentence reads a little weird🤣😆)
Hay Cathy have tried the gripper clamp it helps get hot things out of the air I got two I have aritjis on my hands and it makes so much easy to get pans out of my cosori
I haven't tried it yet, but I've had a couple of people recommend it!
GREAT ideas, recipes and techniques!! I'm learning sooooo much from your videos! One question - - I'm in the market for a new air fryer and have narrowed my search down to the Cosori - but - is there a way to either remove or at least tone or turn down the very loud, high pitched "beep" that the units make when pressing buttons and/or when cooking time is complete? Thank you so much for your very informative and entertaining videos!! I'll be making those delicious Honey Garlic Meatballs this evening - YUM!!
Hi Ann... unfortunately, no. :( This guy came up with a solution though! ua-cam.com/video/QpaQ6VxB54w/v-deo.html. I haven't personally tried this as I prefer not to get into the guts of my air fryer :)
@@empoweredcooks YIKES!!! Yeah, I'd prefer not to get into the guts of an air fryer either - LOL!! But - if I were brave (or desperate) enough to do it, I would probably remove that little devil. Wonder if the air fryer police would come after me... LOL!!! Thank you so much for answering so quickly and for the link... 🙂
Everything looks so easy to do. I'm going to try the lasagna. Also I have 2 eggplants I want to roast up in air fryer but don't know how. Do you have a video for that?
You'll LOVE the lasagna! And YES I have done something with eggplant before! Right here: ua-cam.com/video/k4wyggcs_QI/v-deo.html
Thank you for the smaller serving recipes. I only cook for one and dividing recipes is not as easy as it sounds.
Will you be doing a review on the Ninja Speedi or are you pretty much sticking to the Cosori - your favorite brand of air fryer ?
When you use the foil to cover the holes do you leave it in the air fryer all the time.? What purpose do the holes in the center service?
I do for each meal that may get a little messy (but find I don't do that too often). They are basically finger holes to lift the tray out.
Oh dear!!! So many great recipes. I'm hungry! Two questions: 1) when using the Pyrex baking dish, how in the world do you get it out of the air fryer without burning your fingers/hands? 2) I cook for one. If I don't have an appropriate sized rack to hold down parchment paper or tortillas, what can I use as weights? Can I use a couple nuts or bolts strategically placed? (I checked Amazon for "air fryer weights" but found nothing.) Enjoyed the video. Thank you, thank you!!!!!
Hi Barbara! I use a towel, silicone mitts, or oven mitts. A viewer recently shared this with me and they love it - amzn.to/3BPV9eh
@@empoweredcooks OMG, those plate grippers will fill the bill (as the saying goes). I tried the pot holders/towel/silicone mitts thing. There just isn't enough room... I fear burning fingers. Thank you and your viewer for that info. The nuts and bolts thing sounded weird to me after I posted it. I hope it didn't sound TOO stupid. Do you think it will be OK to place some strategically placed (clean) hardware (I'm thinking some nuts from the Lowe's hardware aisle) to keep my parchment liner from being sucked into the heating element. Had that happen last week. Fortunately I was in the kitchen and smelled the burning paper before it did any harm. Thank you for your time. Love your channel and your taste testers! God bless.
Whoops, sorry forgot to respond to your second question. I've shared my response here in this air fryer tips video - ua-cam.com/video/75ntIG0j8lc/v-deo.html
@@empoweredcooks Thanks for the reply. Dang! I found Ferrite magnets on Amazon (no surprise). I figured I'd need 5-6 at most but they seem to come in packets with enough for the entire neighborhood. I'll keep searching. Thanks again for your time!!!
What is the key to figure out the temperature for all these different meals?
Honestly, practice. I share some other tips here, ua-cam.com/video/RGCSvY7Z9F8/v-deo.html
Tuna melts... grilled cheese..use the mayo instead of oil or butter on the outside of the bread...it's cheap/fantastic
Do you have a recipe book
I just found your channel looking for a new air fryer and I am liking the cosori but I'm not sure which one. Would you recommend the blaze or the 5.8 smart 2 I think it's called
Hi Tory - here is a video that shows the differences! ua-cam.com/video/4BxYkkpno2s/v-deo.html
@@empoweredcooks thank you so much for replying. I actually found it last night and have decided to go with the blaze mostly on the ease of cleaning. I hated cleaning all those slots in my last one..lol.. hoping to learn how to use it via your channel so thank you
