When the days get shorter and darker, I find it harder to eat well. By 6 pm, I’m craving takeout and the couch.
Some appliances are designed to make healthy habits easier and more sustainable. Now discounted, the $49.95 the Bella FitsAnywhere Air Fryer is one of them.
Petite, practical, and impressively priced, it’s one of the best non-toxic air fryers our experts have tested. The ceramic EverGood coating lets you crisp vegetables and proteins with minimal oil – and clean up in minutes. No takeout bill, no guilt.
Our expert air fryer tester, Tobey, tested this one for us, and she sang a lot of praise in her Bella FitsAnywhere Air Fryer review. She says: 'I first noticed this air fryer on Demi Lovato's countertop. It looked tiny in her spacious kitchen. I can confirm, it is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a low-cost, space-saving way to air fry.'
When I asked nutritionists to reveal their air fryer secrets for healthier cooking, they all recommended air frying for quick vegetables and crispy proteins.
The Bella FitsAnywhere Air Fryer easily crisps vegetables, chicken, and tofu in under 15 minutes, helping you eat a more balanced diet. (Top tip: cut veggies into thick chunks, as this model cooks fast and can burn thin slices if you don't keep an eye out).
'Not only does it cook well, it looks great with its soft, rounded edges and colorful options,' Tobey adds, 'It also slips under cabinets and into tight corners, which is great for small kitchens. After a month of testing, I even sent it with my son to college.
Tobey says in her experience, it's best for serving one or two adults, but you can look to the 6-quart Bella FitsAnywhere Air Fryer (also on sale at Walmart) if you need to serve a larger family of four or five.
Our favorite non-toxic air fryers, tried and tested
If you need something larger than this slim, speedy air fryer, you might need to pay a little extra, but these air fryers are reliable options we love (and some are on sale, too).
If you stretch your budget by another $20, you can get another two quarts of space with a 6-quart Bella air fryer. It is still designed to be slim and space-saving, so you can rest assured it won't be an eyesore in your kitchen.
This spacious French door air fryer can bake, roast, reheat, or air fry enough for the whole family. We loved the accessible design, stainless steel racks, and reasonable price tag for the capacity and power.
If you prioritize performance over compact size and price tag, we think the Ninja Air Fryer Pro is the best choice out there. Slightly larger and more utilitarian than the Bella air fryer, its 5-quart basket easily serves a family of 3-4 and cooks food more evenly.
At just $49.95 for Amazon Prime Day (ending tonight at 11:59pm) this little appliance can pay for itself in a single week of skipping takeout, making healthy, home-cooked meals not only quicker but also cheaper than delivery.
As a cook myself, I've come up with some ridiculously easy air fryer recipes I swear by when I'm tired or busy (like chocolate peanut air-fried bananas and crispy chickpeas), if you need some healthy meal inspiration to get you started.
