This recipe combines my two favorite things: fresh garden produce and an easy weeknight side dish. We planted over 200 snap pea plants this year in our garden, and they’ve been producing like wild. I love eating them plain, pickling snap peas, and now air frying them for dinner.
 
We absolute LOVE our Air Fryer and I’ve been trying all kinds of delicious vegetables in it.  I’ve been having a lot of fun trying out new ways to use it, and let me tell you, the air fryer is made for snap peas. These peas were an amazing side dish with out pasta night!  The air fryer gets the peas crispy on both sides, and tender in the middle.
