If potato chips were healthy for you, a lot more people would not be searching for dietary advice. People love to snack, though, and chips are highly addictive. With this recipe, we are aiming to give snackers a more nutritious option to satisfy their salty, crunchy cravings. Air fryer peas are seasoned perfectly and easy to prepare. They won’t last long if you have people over, so make sure to hide them for yourself or make extra.

Unlike a bag of chips, these air fryer peas are only good for about three to four days, so long as you store them in an airtight container. That is because they do not contain preservatives, flavoring agents, excess sodium, and other ingredients that extend their shelf life. Should you have specific seasonings that you want to use instead of the ones listed in the recipe, feel free to do so. For example, you can use chili powder, a squeeze of lime juice, and sea salt if you want a chili lime seasoning. You can also keep it simple and only season the peas with sea salt and black pepper.

A lot of people neglect green peas, and we don’t know why. They have classically been the vegetable in frozen TV dinners, cafeteria lunches, and other similar meals. People just leave them and focus on the other components of the meal. They happen to be rich in vitamins A, C, and K, folate, manganese, fiber, thiamine, protein, and polyphenol antioxidants. Because they are rich in both fiber and protein, they help fill you up and curb cravings. By snacking on these, you may realize that you don’t need to eat the entire batch because they actually fill you up, unlike chips.
