  • Cook the Bites:

    • Place the coated mac 'n' cheese bites in the EaZy MealZ crisper basket, ensuring they are not touching.
    • Cook in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through the cooking time.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
      • Remove the bites from the crisper basket and let them cool for a couple of minutes.
      • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy the gooey, cheesy goodness!

    Tip: For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding cooked bacon bits or sautéed vegetables to the mac 'n' cheese mixture before shaping into balls.
