    This time of year, yellow squash and zucchini seem to run wild in neighborhood backyard gardens.

    Even if you do not have a garden, you can typically find squash at your local grocer any time of year!

    I personally really like how yellow squash (in particular) cooks up in the air fryer.

    I feel it gets tender without getting overly mushy! You might remember we posted some air fryer zucchini a while back.

    This recipe is similar! If you are searching for holiday themed dishes, you might pair this with our air fryer creamed corn casserole!

    1. Wash the squash and remove any bad spots.
    2. Dice your squash and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Add the veggie pieces to your air fryer basket.
    3. If you want to use a spray oil or seasonings, now is the time! If so, give the basket a shake to distribute everything evenly. Cook vegetables in the air fryer for about 12 to 15 minutes at 400 degrees F. Shake the basket during cooking to reduce sticking.
    4. Serve immediately and enjoy!

    Pro Tips

    • Use Any Air Fryer: This recipe can be made in an air fryer unit with a basket or an air fryer oven. If you're using an air fryer oven, place your food on the middle rack and select the "air fry" function.
    • Check your food as it cooks! Since each air fryer runs differently, sometimes air frying is a trial and error-process. When cooking a new recipe, be sure to check on your food often. This will help you avoid over or undercooking, and help you learn your air fryer's specific ways!
