ROASTED SALMON & ASPARAGUS with CRISPY POTATOES OVER LEMON VINAIGRETTE SALAD
This meal is layered with flavor. You will definitely take more than a few bites! It is just…YUMMY! Spring is upon us and this always steers my meal prepping toward lighter meals. Now I used the air fryer for this meal because I just love the crispy-ness of the potatoes that I do not get when oven roasting. Also for the asparagus. Not to mention it cooks faster. So for me I can put the potatoes in the air fryer while I am prepping the salmon. I did try a couple of air fryers and have found my favorite because it has two racks, and does not span the length of my counter space and it is not outrageously expensive. I am funny about my counter space. I do not like cluttered counters.. Who is with me on that.
Here is the commissionable link for the Air Fryer.
