# # Pro Tips for the Perfect Spinach
-
Don't Overcrowd the Basket: 16.0 oz (454 g) of spinach is a large volume when raw! If your air fryer basket is on the smaller side, cook this in two batches. Overcrowding prevents the hot air from circulating efficiently, leading to soggy greens rather than perfectly wilted ones.
-
Watch the "Flyaways": Air fryers work by circulating strong fans. Because spinach leaves are lightweight, they can sometimes fly up into the heating element. Since this recipe uses a pan inside the fryer, you are mostly safe, but it helps to press the spinach down slightly into the pan before cooking.
-
Dry Your Greens: If you wash your spinach beforehand, make sure it is completely dry before adding the mustard and vinegar mixture. Excess water will "steam" the spinach too much and dilute that tangy mustard flavor. A quick spin in a salad spinner works wonders.
-
Check at the Halfway Mark: Every air fryer model varies in power. While the recipe calls for 10 minutes, peek at your spinach around the 5 or 6-minute mark. Spinach wilts incredibly fast, and you might find it’s done to your liking a bit earlier!
-
Upgrade Your Mustard: For the best flavor profile, swap generic yellow mustard for Dijon or a coarse stone-ground mustard. It adds a deeper, slightly spicy kick that pairs beautifully with the acidity of the apple cider vinegar.
# # Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use frozen spinach instead of fresh for this air fryer recipe? It is best to stick with fresh baby spinach. Frozen spinach retains a lot of moisture, which can make the dish watery and soggy when cooked in an air fryer. If you must use frozen, ensure it is completely thawed and squeezed dry of all excess liquid before mixing it with the mustard dressing.
2. Is this Mustard Spinach Side Salad keto-friendly? Yes, absolutely! This recipe is naturally low in carbohydrates and high in healthy nutrients. With only 160 calories and minimal net carbs per serving, it makes an excellent side dish for Keto, Paleo, and low-carb diets.
3. What can I use if I don't have an air fryer? No air fryer? No problem. You can easily make this on the stovetop. Simply grease a large skillet with cooking spray, add your seasoned spinach mixture, and sauté over medium heat for about 3 to 5 minutes until the leaves are wilted and tender.
4. How do I store and reheat leftovers? Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, you can pop it back in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes at 300°F or microwave it for 30 seconds. Keep in mind that reheating may make the spinach softer than when it was freshly cooked.
5. Can I substitute the apple cider vinegar? Yes. If you don't have apple cider vinegar on hand, white wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice are great alternatives. They provide the necessary acidity to balance the sharp flavor of the mustard.
There you have it—a nutrient-packed side dish that proves healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated or boring. This Mustard Spinach Side Salad has truly earned a permanent spot in my weekly rotation, and I have a feeling it will in yours, too.

0.25 cup (approx. 1.0 oz / 28 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded

Pro Tips for the Perfect Low-Carb Risotto
-
Fresh vs. Frozen: For the best texture, use a fresh cauliflower head rather than frozen riced cauliflower. Frozen cauliflower releases significantly more water during cooking, which can make the risotto soupy rather than creamy. If you must use frozen, thaw and squeeze it out in a cheesecloth first.
-
Don't Skip the Sauté: The recipe calls for starting on the stovetop for a reason. Sautéing the mushrooms and cauliflower in the 2.0 tbsp of olive oil allows the mushrooms to brown slightly and develop deep, savory flavors (the Maillard reaction) that you won't get from boiling them in the broth immediately.
-
The Right Vessel: Ensure your pan is oven-safe and allows for good air circulation. A standard 7-inch cake barrel usually fits perfectly in most 5-quart or larger air fryers. If you don't have a pan that fits, you can use a folded heavy-duty aluminum foil boat, though a pan retains heat better.
-
Stir for Even Cooking: Air fryers heat from the top down. To ensure the "rice" absorbs the chicken stock evenly, open the basket halfway through the cooking time (around the 10-minute mark) and give the risotto a gentle stir.
-
Boost the Creaminess: The mozzarella provides the binding, but for an ultra-rich finish, stir in 0.5 oz (approx. 14 g) of grated Parmesan cheese or a splash of heavy cream right after taking it out of the air fryer.
-
Watch the Salt: Chicken stock varies wildly in sodium content. Taste your risotto before adding the final pinch of salt to avoid over-seasoning, especially since the mozzarella adds its own saltiness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen cauliflower rice for this recipe? While you can use frozen cauliflower rice, fresh cauliflower is highly recommended for the best texture. Frozen cauliflower tends to release significantly more water, which can result in a "soupier" risotto. If you must use frozen, thaw it first and squeeze out the excess moisture using a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel before cooking.
How do I store and reheat leftovers? Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the risotto in a pan on the stovetop over medium-low heat. You may need to add 1.0 tbsp of water or broth to loosen it up as the cheese creates a tighter texture when chilled. Avoid the microwave if possible, as it can make the cauliflower rubbery.
Can I make this recipe vegetarian or vegan? Yes. To make this vegetarian, simply swap the 1.0 cup of chicken stock for vegetable broth. To make it vegan, use vegetable broth and substitute the mozzarella cheese with a high-quality vegan melting cheese or nutritional yeast for that cheesy flavor.
What if I don't have a pan that fits my air fryer? If you don't have a specific air fryer accessory pan (like a cake barrel), you can use any oven-safe baking dish that fits inside your basket. Alternatively, you can create a "boat" using heavy-duty aluminum foil, though a rigid dish is safer for handling hot liquids.
Is this Mushroom Risotto suitable for a Keto diet? Absolutely. A traditional risotto uses Arborio rice, which is very high in carbohydrates. This recipe uses cauliflower rice, bringing the net carbs down significantly. With high-fat ingredients like olive oil and mozzarella, it fits perfectly into a Keto or Low-Carb macro profile.

Pro Tips for Success
-
Uniform Sizing: Cut your broccoli and cauliflower florets into similar sizes (about 1 to 1.5 inches). This ensures they cook evenly so you don’t end up with some mushy pieces and some raw ones.
-
Prevent Burnt Cheese: 20 minutes at 380°F is a long time for cheese to be directly under the heating element. For a perfectly gooey melt, try covering the pan with foil for the first 10 minutes, or simply hold off on adding the shredded mozzarella until the last 5–7 minutes of cooking.
-
Moisture Control: If you are washing fresh vegetables, pat them completely dry before mixing with the butter and sour cream. If you substitute frozen vegetables, thaw and drain them thoroughly first; otherwise, the sauce may become watery.
-
Check the Airflow: Make sure the baking pan you use leaves at least an inch of space on all sides within your air fryer basket. Air fryers rely on circulating hot air; if the pan fits too tightly, the bottom and center of the dish won't cook properly.
-
Mustard Choice: For a smoother sauce with a sharp kick, use Dijon mustard. If you prefer a milder flavor with a bit of texture, a whole grain mustard is a great alternative.
Common FAQs
Can I use frozen broccoli and cauliflower? Yes, you can. However, frozen vegetables release significantly more water than fresh ones. To prevent the sauce from becoming watery, thaw the florets completely and pat them dry (or squeeze out excess liquid) before mixing them with the other ingredients.
Can I make this in a regular oven instead of an air fryer? Absolutely. If you don't have an air fryer, preheat your standard oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the dish for 20–25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
What can I substitute for sour cream? If you don't have sour cream, full-fat plain Greek yogurt makes an excellent 1:1 substitute. For a richer flavor, you can also use softened cream cheese or heavy whipping cream, though the texture may vary slightly.
How do I store and reheat leftovers? Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For the best texture, reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–4 minutes. You can also microwave it, though the cheese may lose some of its crispness.
Is this recipe Keto-friendly? Yes! With low-carb vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower, combined with high-fat ingredients like butter, sour cream, and cheese, this dish fits perfectly into a Keto or low-carb diet.
Sticking to your macros has never tasted this good. This Mustard Broccoli and Cauliflower bake is the ultimate Keto-friendly side dish, delivering satisfying high-fat creaminess with low-carb veggies.

Pro Tips for Perfect Creamy Sprouts
- Don't Lose the Sauce: Since this recipe involves liquid ingredients (coconut cream and melted ghee), use a silicone air fryer liner or a small, heat-safe baking dish that fits inside your air fryer basket. If you place the mixture directly on a standard wire rack, the delicious creamy sauce will drip through to the bottom before it coats the vegetables.
- Uniform Sizing is Key: Try to select Brussels sprouts that are roughly the same size. If you have a mix of large and small sprouts, cut the large ones into quarters and the small ones in half. This ensures they all cook at the same speed so you don't end up with some mushy and some crunchy.
- Shake Halfway Through: To ensure the sprouts roast evenly and get that nice golden color on all sides, pause the air fryer around the 10-minute mark and give the basket (or pan) a gentle shake or stir.
- Watch the Garlic: Minced garlic can burn quickly at 370°F (188°C). To prevent this, make sure the garlic is well-mixed into the coconut cream and ghee sauce rather than sitting dry on top of the sprouts. The fat in the sauce helps protect it from scorching.
- Thick Coconut Cream: For the richest texture, use canned coconut cream rather than coconut milk from a carton. If your can has separated, mix the thick solid cream with the liquid water in the can until smooth before measuring out your 0.5 cup.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts for this air fryer recipe? A: While you can use frozen sprouts, fresh is highly recommended for the best texture. Frozen Brussels sprouts tend to release significant moisture when cooking, which can water down the rich coconut cream sauce and prevent the sprouts from caramelizing properly. If you must use frozen, thaw and pat them very dry before mixing with the ghee and spices.
Q: Is this Creamy Brussels Sprouts recipe dairy-free? A: This recipe uses ghee (clarified butter), which removes most milk solids but is still derived from dairy. If you need this dish to be strictly dairy-free or Vegan, you can substitute the melted ghee with avocado oil or melted coconut oil. The coconut cream already provides a naturally dairy-free creamy base.
Q: How do I store and reheat leftovers? A: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, avoid the microwave, as it will make the sprouts soggy. Instead, pop them back into the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3–4 minutes to warm them through and restore a bit of the texture.
Q: Can I make this recipe in the oven if I don't have an air fryer? A: Yes! To bake these in a conventional oven, spread the sprouts and sauce mixture into a baking dish. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the sprouts are tender and the sauce is bubbly and thickened.
Q: Is this Brussels sprouts recipe Keto-friendly? A: Absolutely. With only 6g of net carbs (approximate) and high healthy fats from the ghee and coconut cream, this dish fits perfectly into a Keto or Low Carb diet. It is an excellent way to get your daily vegetable intake while hitting your fat macros.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Cauliflower Bake
Cut Uniform Florets: Ensure your cauliflower florets are cut into similar-sized pieces (about 1-inch). This ensures they cook evenly so you don't end up with some crunchy and some mushy pieces.
Grate Your Own Cheese: Pre-shredded bagged cheese contains anti-caking agents (like potato starch) that prevent it from melting smoothly. For the best gooey texture and lower carb count, buy a block of sharp cheddar and grate it yourself.
Watch the Browning: Air fryers heat from the top down very intensely. If you notice the cheese browning too quickly before the 20 minutes are up, cover the pan loosely with foil (make sure the foil is weighed down and doesn't touch the heating element) or lower the temperature to 360°F (182°C).
Let it Rest: The cream sauce will be very bubbling and liquid when it first comes out of the fryer. Let the dish rest for 3 to 5 minutes before serving. This allows the sauce to cool slightly and thicken up, clinging better to the vegetables.
Pat the Cauliflower Dry: After washing your cauliflower, pat it completely dry with paper towels. Excess water can make the cream sauce watery rather than rich and velvety.
Check Your Pan Size: Ensure your baking pan allows for some air circulation around the edges within the fryer basket. If the fit is too tight, the hot air won't circulate effectively to the bottom of the pan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this in a regular oven instead of an air fryer? Yes! If you don't have an air fryer, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the dish for 25 to 30 minutes until the cauliflower is fork-tender and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Can I use frozen cauliflower? You can, but fresh is generally better for texture. If you must use frozen cauliflower, thaw it completely and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible with a clean kitchen towel before mixing it with the cream. This prevents the sauce from becoming watery.
How do I store and reheat leftovers? Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the portion back in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3–5 minutes to crisp up the cheese, or simply warm it in the microwave.
Can I substitute the heavy cream? If you need a lighter option, half-and-half works, though the sauce will be thinner. for a dairy-free or paleo adaptation, you can use full-fat canned coconut milk, though this will slightly alter the flavor profile.
Can I add protein to make this a full meal? Absolutely. Cooked bacon bits, diced ham, or shredded rotisserie chicken can be tossed in with the cauliflower before baking to add extra protein and make it a complete one-pan meal.
Is this recipe Keto-friendly? Yes, this recipe is excellent for a Keto diet. It is high in healthy fats from the heavy cream, ghee, and cheddar cheese, while keeping the net carbs very low.
