If you need a quick and healthy side dish, frozen veggies in the air fryer are perfect! Just add in your favorite seasonings and they will be perfect in less than 15 minutes.

frozen mixed vegetables made in the air fryer and served on a white plate.

I love making vegetables in the air fryer. Some of my favorite vegetable recipes are Air Fryer Squash, Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes, Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts, and Air Fryer Zucchini. But when I am craving mixed veggies, I totally grab a bag from the freezer and make quick work out of them.

I love making vegetables in the air fryer. Air fryers cook by circulating hot air around the food, and this gives it a crisp fried texture that's healthier than deep frying.

If you don't have any fresh vegetables on hand, you can purchase a vegetable medley of mixed vegetables in the freezer section of your favorite grocery store. Choose your favorite frozen bag of delicious veggies for an easy and delicious side dish.

I love using fresh vegetables when available, but they aren't in season all year round, so frozen mixed vegetables work easily for me. You can also grab smaller bags of frozen vegetables and create your own mixture.

Air Frying Vegetables is my new favorite cooking method when I need something quick and easy.

Ingredients:

  • olive oil
  • Italian seasoning
  • ground black pepper

Add the seasoned frozen vegetables to the air fryer basket. It's ok to overlap the vegetables slightly, but try and keep as much room around them as possible to help with the cooking process. If you're using a small number of vegetables, keep them in a single layer.

Absolutely! You will want to adjust the cooking time down a few minutes for fresh produce, and check on the vegetables after 5 minutes.

What can I serve with Air Fryer Frozen Vegetables?

Healthy vegetables are a great side dish for main course dishes such as air fryer steak, air fryer chicken, air fryer pork tenderloin, or even to serve with pasta.
