Air fryer mushrooms are a quick side for soup, toast or a larger meal. I start them with a little oil, then add the chives and chipotle seasoning partway through so the mushrooms can release some moisture before the final seasoning.
If you do not have an air fryer you can make it in oven too.
You can use the airfryer to cook different vegetables such as air fryer brussel sprouts, air fryer potatoes, air fryer asparagus, air fryer corn, air fryer zucchini , air fryer yellow squash.
