Ninja Foodi - it’s a thumbs up from me
5/5
Ok, so my love for the Ninja Foodi has most certainly grown and I can now honestly say I love it. I think at first the fact that this multi-cooker can do soooo much made the concept daunting and intimidating – I put that down to lack of knowledge! As soon as I dedicated some time to educate myself on how to use the many functions of the Foodi I feel like the options are endless.
My slow cooker and air fryer had broken within the same week and I also wanted a pressure cooker to add to my kitchen gadgets so the Ninja Foodi has replaced all of these saving me valuable kitchen space and money.
I love that fact that you can do it all in the one pot – I made a lasagne and was able to sear the meat, pressure cook my lasagne in a fraction of the time and then crisp the cheese at the end. I now cook all my vegetables in the same pot, cook my whole chicken in no time and crisp the skin to perfection and then use the juice for the gravy – my cooking time and dishes are halved.
I did originally purchase the standard 6 quart Foodi but I found for a family of 4 (and I cook for my Grandmother) the deluxe/max version was better suited for my family as it is slightly bigger and has the dehydrator and yoghurt option.
The CONS;
Bulky and Heavy – so you either need a good sized kitchen or like me this replace all other gadgets.
Takes a little bit of sussing out - but it’s definitely worth the effort
An expensive kitchen gadget – but has so many uses and replaces a host of other appliances
