How to make Air Fryer Veggie Quinoa Bowls

So, the veggies are the “air fryer” part of this meal.

But first make 3/4 cup of dry quinoa according to the package directions on the stove.

I like to drizzle some olive oil in mine and season with salt and pepper when it’s done.

Then slice some mushrooms, a red pepper, and half of a red onion and put them in a bowl.

Drizzle in 2 tablespoons each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

And season with oregano, garlic powder, kosher salt, and pepper before tossing it all together.

Then set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 14 to 16 minutes, mixing it a little halfway through.

Ahhhh, yum!

I mean they would be scrumptious just served by themselves!
