- 1 16 oz bag frozen vegetable medley
Instructions
- Preheat an air fryer to 350F for 5 minutes.

- Add butter or seasoning to the veggies if desired, serve with your favorite air fryer dinner foods.
Notes
Cooking vegetables in an air fryer from frozen helps to keep them soft and retain their moisture.
We used a 1 lb frozen bag of the Trader Joe's foursome vegetable medley, any frozen vegetable mix will work whether it's pre-seasoned or not.
Air frying using this method includes cooking a medley of veggies or a single frozen vegetable variety such as carrots, corn kernels, or peas.
Buying pre-cut air fryer parchment paper rounds (or squares depending on your model) is a great way to skip having to cut parchment paper to fit the shape of your unit, plus they have holes in the bottom of the paper for increased air circulation.
