Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

This Air Fryer Corned Beef Brisket is hands down my new favorite way to cook our favorite St Patty’s meal! It is easy, requires no extra ingredients, and takes 1/4 of the time it would take with my Crock-Pot! I just love how juicy and tender the brisket turns out in only 90 minutes.

Air Fryer Corned Beef

Ingredients

• 3 lb Corned Beef Brisket I used a flat cut

Instructions

• Rinse corned beef with cold water to remove any excess salty brine. Then pat dry with paper towels.
• Sprinkle with included seasoning packet that comes with the brisket.
• Wrap the corned beef in a large sturdy piece of  aluminum foil, seasoning side up.
• I do not preheat my Air Fryer but you can preheat it a few minutes before at 370 degrees.
• Place the wrapped brisket in the Air Fryer and cook for 1 hour at 360 degrees.
• Open the Air Fryer, open the aluminum foil (careful of the steam) and spoon some of the juice onto the top of the brisket.
• Wrap up the aluminum foil again and cook for 20-30 more minutes or until the internal temp is 145 degrees.
• Remove carefully from the air fryer basket and allow the corned beef to rest for at least 10 minutes.
• Unwrap and slice against the grain to your desired thickness. Serve warm with cabbage, potatoes, and horseradish sauce.

I purchased my corned beef brisket from Aldi. I got a 3lb flat cut and it turned out tender and juicy in the Air Fryer!

Rinse corned beef with cold water to remove any excess salty brine. Then pat dry with paper towels.

Sprinkle with included seasoning packet that comes with the brisket.

Wrap the corned beef in a large sturdy piece of  aluminum foil, seasoning side up. 

Place the wrapped brisket in the Air Fryer and cook for 1 hour at 360 degrees. 

Open the Air Fryer, open the aluminum foil (careful of the steam) and spoon some of the juice onto the top of the brisket.

Wrap up the aluminum foil again and cook for 20-30 more minutes or until the internal temp is 145 degrees. 

Remove carefully from the air fryer basket and allow the corned beef to rest for at least 10 minutes.

How amazing does that look? It cooked in 1/4 of the time it takes me with my Crock-Pot too!

Unwrap and slice against the grain to your desired thickness. 

Serve warm with cabbage, potatoes, and horseradish sauce.

Without further ado here’s Ashton and his recipe for an Air Fryer Family Size Omelet !

First ever blog takeover by the man behind the lady behind the camera! It’s eggs!

All my homies know I love eggs, I’ll eat a few dozen due to being roughly the size of a barn. This air fryer omelet is easy, easy like Sunday morning.

Air Fryer Family Size Omelet

Ingredients

• 8 eggs
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese ¼ goes in, ¼ goes on top
• ½ cup bacon chopped ( ¼ goes in, ¼ goes on top)
• 2 tbsp milk
• 2 tbsp chives diced (optional)

Instructions

• Crack the eggs, semi aggressively. They taste better that way. Add to a large bowl.
• Toss in the ¼ cup of cheese and ¼ cup of bacon. An utterance of “boom” and “pow’ as those go in are helpful, for flavor.
• Pour in the milk 2 whole TBS of it.
• Mix it all together till there isn’t a distinguishable difference between the white part of the egg and the good part.
• Spray your air fryer pan with some cooking oils, WD-40 isn’t recommended.
• Pour all those mixed pretties into to pan and send it, right into the machine. 350⁰ again, same as the optional (device dependent) warm up. 10 minutes on the clock and GOOOOOO! While that 10 minutes is dwindling by, don’t sit on your hands. There’s things to see, dishes to do. Yeah, clean up that work space, you’ve got time!
• When the 10 minutes is up, dramatically open the lid. Not too dramatically. Sprinkle on the remaining bacon and on top of that give those lil bacons a blanket of cheese. You can also add in some chives.
• Back into the fire (fryer) it goes! For just 5 minutes this time and still at 350⁰.
• 5 minutes goes by and we have achieved greatness! I use a large silicone or other soft flipper to get the omelet out. Using metal flippers can scratch your pan!
• Place it on a plate and snap a pic for the Insta.
• Cut it like a pizza and serve!

Notes

Notes: I used packaged bacon chunks and they have plenty of salt but feel free to add some spice if you think that would be nice.

Some air fryers need to be preheated, I use the Ninja Foodi and I’ve determined that it’s superior and does not require such a thing.

But, if you do want to pre heat your air fryer go for 350⁰ for 3-5 minutes while you combine the ingredients.

Crack the eggs, semi aggressively. They taste better that way. Add to a large bowl.

Pour in the milk 2 whole TBS of it.
Now because it’s a recipe I have to put a measurement on it but all these thing are usually subject to my current mood.

Toss in the ¼ cup of shredded cheese… 

and ¼ cup of chopped bacon. An utterance of “boom” and “pow’ as those go in are helpful, for flavor.

Mix it all together till there isn’t a distinguishable difference between the white part of the egg and the good part.

Spray your air fryer pan with some cooking oils, WD-40 isn’t recommended.

Pour all those mixed pretties into to pan and send it, right into the machine. 350⁰ again, same as the optional (device dependent) warm up.

10 minutes on the clock and GOOOOOO! 

While that 10 minutes is dwindling by, don’t sit on your hands. There’s things to see, dishes to do. Yeah, clean up that work space, you’ve got time!

When the 10 minutes is up, dramatically open the lid. Not too dramatically.

Sprinkle on the remaining bacon and on top of that give those lil bacons a blanket of cheese.

You can also add some chopped chives because why not?

Back into the fire (fryer) it goes! For just 5 minutes this time and still at 350⁰.

5 minutes goes by and we have achieved greatness!

I use a large silicone or other soft flipper to get the omelet out. Using metal flippers can scratch your pan!

Place it on a plate and snap a pic for the Insta.

Lookin’ good!

Cut it like a pizza and serve!

Breakfast is served! Thanks for reading all the way to the end. I hope it was as fun for you as it was for me!

Grilled Cheese is hands down the most requested sandwich in our home. I jazz mine up with multiple cheeses, fancy thick bread (sourdough is my favorite), and salted butter.

Now that I am an Air Fryer owner (finally), I have mastered the ultimate air fryer grilled cheese and it was so good I may never cook it in a skillet again! Give it a try for lunch today.

I am loving my new Christmas gift: my Ninja Foodi! It has a lot of functions but my favorite is the air fryer!

How did I ever cook without one before?!

3 Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich in the Air Fryer

Makes 2 sandwiches

Ingredients

• 4 slices of sourdough bread
• 1 tbsp salted butter softened
• 2 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 slices muenster or monterey jack cheese
• 2 tbsp parmesan cheese shredded

Instructions

• Butter all four slices of bread on one side only.
• Place the two sliced cheeses on the unbuttered side of two slices of bread and cover with the other two slices of bread, buttered sides up.
• Add the two sandwiches in the air fryer basket.
• Cook at 375 degrees for 4 minutes.
• Open air fryer, flip sandwiches, add 1 tbsp shredded parmesan to the top of each sandwich, spreading to cover.
• Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until melted and golden.
• Remove sandwiches, slice, and serve warm.

These sandwiches are so delicious and absolutely a cinch to make! The secret: salted butter and sourdough! 

Butter all four slices of bread on one side only.

Place the two sliced cheeses on the unbuttered side of two slices of bread.

Cover with the other two slices of bread, buttered sides up.

Add the two sandwiches in the air fryer basket.

Cook at 375 degrees for 4 minutes.

Open air fryer and flip sandwiches.

Add 1 tbsp shredded parmesan to the top of each sandwich, spreading to cover. 

Shredded parmesan adds another delicious layer of flavor to this grilled cheese!

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until melted and golden.

I love crispy melted cheese on top of hot sandwiches.

Remove sandwiches, slice, and serve warm.

    Lunch is served and in under 8 minutes!

I’ve got a monster sized dessert to share with you today!

We have this restaurant that we love when we go home to Florida called BJ’s Brewhouse. It’s been so long since we’ve been there that I can’t even remember all our favorite menu items except their signature dessert: a Pizookie! A Pizookie is a giant cookie topped with ice cream and served in a pie pan. Basically it’s a pizza style cookie (get it?!) and it is amazing! I have wanted to make one at home and when I saw a video on Tiktok showing that you could make one in your AirFryer, I knew I had to try! It came out spectacular, brown and crunchy on top and warm and gooey inside. 

If you love chocolate and have a sweet tooth give this recipe a try at home and let me know what you think!

Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Pizookie

Makes 4-6 servings

Ingredients

• 1 16 oz package chocolate chip cookie dough
• aluminum foil
• ice cream for topping
• chocolate and caramel sauce for topping

Instructions

• Spread a sheet of aluminum foil in the bottom of your air fryer basket.
• Remove cookie dough from the package and press into the bottom of the foil lined basket, spreading to cover.
• Turn your Air Fryer to 350 degrees and bake for approx 16 minutes.
• When your cookie is done carefully lift both sides of the foil and remove the cookie from the Air Fryer basket.
• I placed ours on a platter and topped with a few scoops of ice cream.
• Finally drizzle with chocolate and caramel (if you'd like) and serve with spoons so everyone can dig in!
• If you don't care about presentation or want an easier way to serve, just scoop some soft cookie and ice cream topping in a bowl and serve!

Notes

The Tiktok video said to cook for 10 minutes but that was definitely not enough time for ours. I did 15-16 minutes and it was perfectly crunchy on top and gooey inside!

This recipe works with any flavor cookie dough but I love a classic so we went with Chocolate Chip cookie dough!

Spread a sheet of aluminum foil in the bottom of your air fryer basket. 

Remove cookie dough from the package and press into the bottom of the foil lined basket, spreading to cover. 

Turn your Air Fryer to 350 degrees and bake for approx 16 minutes.

Boiled eggs in the Air Fryer?! Sounds crazy I know but they are so easy to make and they come out perfect Every. Single. Time. 

Check out the details below to make Air Fryer “Boiled” Eggs 3 different ways – hard, soft, and runny. You’ll never want to make them any other way again! 

Print

Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs 3 Ways

Ingredients

• 4-8 large eggs depending on the size of your air fryer
• 1 large bowl of ice water

Instructions

• Preheat your air fryer to 300 degrees F.
• Add eggs to the air fryer basket, spacing them out then close the lid.
• For runny eggs, cook for 8 minutes.
• For soft boiled eggs, cook for 12 minutes.
• For hard boiled eggs, cook for 14 minutes.
• Remove eggs from the air fryer and add them to the ice water bowl for a few minutes. This stops them from cooking and makes them easier to peel.
• Now your eggs are ready to peel and eat or store in your fridge for recipes later in the week!

Notes

These are estimated cooking times using my personal Ninja Air Fryer. Cooking times may vary slightly. 

Start by adding your eggs to the air fryer basket. I made 4, spaced slightly apart. 

Cook at 300 degrees F for 8-14 minutes according to the doneness you want (see recipe instructions above). 

Remove eggs from the air fryer and add them to the ice water bowl for a few minutes.

This stops them from cooking and makes them easier to peel. 

Now your eggs are ready to peel and eat or store in your fridge for recipes later in the week! 

I cooked my boiled eggs 3 ways- hard, soft, and runny. What’s your favorite?  

I use hard boiled for egg salad, soft for topping avocado toast, and runny for noodle bowls.

I love them all but the runny eggs are my favorite especially served on top of ramen.

I know what I’m having for lunch today!
