Perfectly tender inside, golden and lightly crisp on the edges — this air fryer salmon recipe has officially become our family’s favorite way to cook salmon. ♡

I’m honestly so impressed with how reliably the air fryer cooks salmon to perfection. The fillets come out juicy and flaky on the inside with that irresistibly crisp, caramelized surface on the outside every single time. No splattering oil, no babysitting the pan, no guesswork required. And it all comes together easily in just 10 minutes!

All you need are a handful of pantry spices, a drizzle of olive oil, and a squeeze of fresh lemon to make it shine. Serve it up with some roasted (or air-fried) veggies with a green salad, add the salmon to your favorite pasta or grain bowl, tuck it into tacos with a squeeze of lime — however you serve it, this all-purpose air fryer salmon recipe is absolutely a keeper.

This air fryer zucchini recipe makes perfectly seasoned slices that cook up tender, lightly crisp, and irresistibly delicious in just minutes.

We have a bumper crop of zucchini in our garden right now that our 4-year-old absolutely loves picking. So whenever he proudly runs in with his harvest just before dinner, air frying has become our favorite way to cook it up quickly. ♡

This simple method couldn’t be easier — just slice up the zucchini, toss it with a drizzle of olive oil and a few seasonings, then let the air fryer work its magic. In less than 10 minutes, you’ll have zucchini that’s tender on the inside with irresistible golden edges. It’s so simple but remarkably good!

Pair it with any weeknight dinner, toss it into pastas, salads or grain bowls, or enjoy it warm straight out of the basket (our personal favorite). However you serve it, this air fryer zucchini is a quick, healthy, and delicious way to put the season’s produce to good use.

Air Fryer Green Beans

This air fryer green beans recipe turns out perfectly each time and can be on the table in just 15 minutes!

We can’t stop making these air fryer green beans! ♡

They’ve become an absolute staple in our weeknight dinner routine lately — easy to make in 15 minutes total, perfectly tender in the middle, and irresistibly crisp and golden around the edges every time. I always used to roast green beans in the oven, but the air fryer version is faster and easier. And honestly, just as delicious every time.

I highly recommend using French green beans (haricots verts) here, since they cook quickly and stay extra delicate, but regular green beans work just as well if that’s what you have on hand. We most often make ours simply with salt, pepper, and a hint of garlic powder, but you can absolutely play around with other spices to make them your own. However you choose to season them, air frying is the way to go!

These potatoes cook up with irresistibly crisp, golden skins and tender, pillowy insides in about 45 minutes — with zero need to heat up the whole kitchen.
