About Time

Ingredients
- 3 medium – big potatoes (about 3 cups, peeled and cut in 1-inch sizes)
- 2 medium – large Carrots
- 1 small head of broccoli (or about 2 cups)
- 2 (raw) mild Italian sausage links (you can use fully cooked sausage. If using fully cooked sausage add it towards the end)
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil (or less; I used about a tablespoon and half)
- 2 teaspoons – 1 tablespoon date syrup
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dry thyme
- ½ teaspoon Maggi (or Knorr seasoning)
- ½ All-natural Cajun seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black Pepper.
- Plus a dash of pepper, salt, cajun seasoning, and dry thyme for seasoning the broccoli.
Instructions
- Wash/Cut all the vegetables, and cut the Sausage. I typically cut the potatoes to 1 – 2-inch size; equally, I prefer them to be in cubes. As for the carrots, first, I peel them. Second, I slice off the roots and the tips. Then I cut them in chunks, about 2-inch sizes; I don’t want them too small or too big. Finally, I cut the broccoli by simply separating the thick, tough stem from the edible florets. I only cut a floret into halve if it is too big! Place the sausage on a cutting board (and ON a stable surface); use kitchen scissors to cut off the sausage casing (this won’t be necessary if you use a fully cooked sausage). Then use a knife and slice/cut into 1-inch sizes. You can obviously cut them smaller (or bigger) as you wish.
- Add the potatoes and carrots into a big bowl, and sprinkle the seasonings except for the salt and date syrup. Sprinkle one tablespoon of avocado oil and combine. Taste, and then add a little salt according to your preference. Remember always to add salt last if some of your seasonings contain sodium.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350, add the seasoned potatoes and carrots into the air fryer basket. Use a spoon or spatula to gently drop the cut sausages into the air fryer basket as well. Then air fry for 15 minutes; remember to flip or turn midway.
- While the potatoes, carrots, and sausage are cooking in the air fryer, season the broccoli. Sprinkle a dash of salt, black pepper, cajun seasoning, dry thyme, date syrup, and a teaspoon of avocado oil. Mix well, and set aside.
- After 15 minutes, add the seasoned broccoli ensure to distribute it evenly. Spray a little avocado oil spray if needed. Then, air fry for 8 more minutes. Turn or shake halfway, as well as taste/adjust flavors.
- These air fryer potatoes, sausage, carrots, and broccoli meal are ready when they look crisp/shiny on the outside and tender inside! Best to serve warm with or without sauce; my kids like ketchup, and we opt out for a little of this homemade pumpkin seed salad dressing!
