A quick, tasty, and healthy side dish that goes well with practically any main. If preferred, immediately after removing from the air fryer, top with fresh Parmesan cheese and drizzle with balsamic glaze for a more luxurious dish. Yum!

Very salty, ingredients were expensive. Maybe I expected too much. Was just okay, considering the prep. Maybe just too enamored with mac and cheese and did not consider alternatives. Will not make again.
