Ingredients

  • 1 medium zucchini cut into slices
  • 1 bell pepper cut into strips
  • 1 medium carrot peeled and cut into sticks
  • 1/2 head of cauliflower cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Prepare the vegetables: Start by cutting all the vegetables into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking. Zucchini should be sliced, bell pepper cut into strips, carrots into sticks, and cauliflower into florets.

  • Air fry the vegetables: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the seasoned vegetables in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Depending on your air fryer’s size, you may need to do this in batches.
  • Cook: Air fry the vegetables for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure they cook evenly. The vegetables should be golden and crispy when done.

Notes

  • You can mix and match any vegetables you like—sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, or even asparagus work well.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or sprinkle with fresh herbs after cooking.
  • Adjust the seasoning based on your taste preference; adding a pinch of red pepper flakes can give the dish a nice kick.
  • Ensure that the vegetables are cut to similar sizes to guarantee even cooking in the air fryer.
