Simple Mediterranean-inspired chicken salad prepped in the air fryer.

Meddy Air Fryer Chicken Salad
500g boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 smallish cucumber
Hand full snipped chives
1 small red onion
3 heaping Tbsp vegan Greek-style yogurt (I use Al-Pro, because that’s what is available where I live. Go for something unsweetened and thick)
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
3 cloves crushed garlic
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
Salt & pepper to taste
Spray avocado oil
Your favorite wrap (mine is a cassava blend)
Preheat your air fryer on 400F for 3 mins. Blast the basket with avocado oil. Salt and pepper your chicken and add to the basket. Blast again with oil.
Cook 10-ish mins or until cooked through but still juicy. Let rest until cool and shred with forks.
While the chicken is chickening, dice the onion and cucumber – add to a large bowl with the remaining ingredients.
Add the chicken when ready and toss to coat. Taste for seasoning and add more acid or salt to taste.
Serve in a wrap for a light lunch, or straight out of the bowl for one that’s even easier.
Serves 2-3







Another quick n dirty air fryer salmon recipe I’ve been making on repeat lately. Fantastic served with last week’s recipe for carrot salad with pistachios.

Air Fryer Dilled Salmon
Salmon – however many servings you’d like
Spreadable mustard – my love isn’t quite right here, so I used my second favorite: Chinese-style spicy mustard
Fresh dill
Salt & pepper
Spray oil – I use either avocado or garlic flavored olive
Lay your salmon out and pat dry. Top with a generous slather mustard, a bunch of fresh chopped dill, sprinkle of salt & few cracks pepper.
Let sit for an hour or two in the fridge.
When it’s time for dinner, preheat your air fryer to 400F for 3 mins.
Spray the grate with oil and lay your salmon down, toppings side up.
Air fry 6-ish mins or until done to your liking.
Remove carefully and serve with your salad.
Serves 2-4
