      I have never cooked an entire side dish in air fryer. This is such a wonderful idea and makes us love our air fryer even more.

      I made this recipe last night and I thought I’d have a little bit left over for my lunch today. The boys went nuts over it and there wasn’t a string bean left. I’ll definitely be putting this recipe on my rotation.
