Having that new air cooker has given me an entire new way of cooking, enjoying some great recipes in a new way, and still keeping my diet filled with the vitamins and minerals that are so necessary for eyesight. Even with all the greens, oranges and yellows I’m consuming, my eye surgeon still urges AREDS2 twice a day, an easy thing to do with an inexpensive OTC medication. But for fun, for an easy dish that serves four, try this
SWEET POTATO VEGGIE HASH
Set Air Cooker to 400 degrees and preheat.
Peel and chop 3 potatoes (Yukon Gold are great) and toss them with 1 T. olive oil.
Put in basket and cook potatoes 15 minutes, until tender, stirring every few minutes.
Add and toss with potatoes: 1 sweet potato, 1 onion, 1 red pepper, all chopped or diced, 2 garlic cloves, 1 teas. thyme, some black pepper.
Bake another 10 minutes or so, stirring once or twice3. Potatoes will be browned, and with the vegetables, crisp tender.
Or how about Sweet Potato Tots that can be made with canned sweets.
SWEET POTATO TOTS
Preheat Oven Cookers to 400 degrees.
Drain 1 can sweet potatoes, put in bowl and mash. Stir in until well mixed: ½ Cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 egg white, 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, sea salt if you must.
Form rounded tablespoon size tots with the mix, and roll in a plate of 1 Cup crushed cracker crumbs. (Ritz are great, so are saltines).
Put in single layer in basket, spray with cooking oil, and cook about 15 minutes, stirring once. Tots will be crisp and golden in color.
