Notes

  • Wipe the mushrooms with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. 
  • Quarter or half the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. 
  • You do not need to remove the mushroom stems.
  • Not a fan of onion salt? Use kosher salt to taste instead. 
  • Balsamic vinegar is optional but adds to the rich, earthy, umami flavor. 
  • Preheat the air fryer for the best results. 
  • Cook the mushrooms in a single layer. You may need to cook in batches.
  • Give the mushrooms a shake every few minutes, so they cook evenly. 
  • Serve hot or warm. Garnish with fresh herbs for presentation.
  • Air Fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model. Use the cooking time listed as a guide, check for doneness, and adjust as needed.
  • Storage - keep leftovers in an airtight container inside the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • There is just 1 WW Blue Plan SmartPoint in one serving of this.
