Editorial Reviews

The Ninja Air Fryer is used more in my kitchen than any other appliance because it’s convenient, fast, and yields restaurant quality results. And the Ninja Air Fryer Cookbook for Beginners is the ultimate guide to start unlocking the potential of this machine. Linda’s recipes are thoughtful, simple, and still spectacular for when time is of the essence—which it always is!”—Nikki Dinki, chef, TV host, and author of Meat On The Side

“I had looked at other air fryer cookbooks, but many were filled with recipes that didn’t seem like the things a typical family of four would eat on a regular basis. Not only does this cookbook contain recipes for family favorites, like barbecued ribs, it also contains recipes for things my family enjoys, but I hadn’t thought about being able to prepare in an air fryer, such as taco pizza and General Tso’s chicken.”—R. Hicks, Amazon reviewer

“This is a super reference; beyond just fryers, beyond just recipes, filled with photos, and filled with knowledge, it reads more like a storybook than a cookbook. . . . I'm impressed.”—Mike, Amazon reviewer

“I have spent my life perusing cookbooks. This one for use with an air fryer is the most thorough I have ever seen. Not only are the over seventy recipes all practical and delicious, but there is a comprehensive section at the back that lists dozens of foods and how to cook them in the appliance, including temperature and time.”—Mary Ann, Amazon reviewer
