My first go in the Vortex was a simple Garlic Parmesan Cheesy Bread. It came out perfect – I watched it like a hawk because I was not at all sure of the time or temperature I should be employing. I used the Broil function which only works at 400 degrees for 1 minute. Delicious – (Sadly no pics)
My second go at it was some Parmesan Zucchini Zoodles. Now these were AMAZING … I mean some seriously delicious grub …

Nutrition per portion
Ingredients
- 1 lb zucchini (about 2) Zoodled
- 1 cup AP Flour (for dredging)
- 3 eggs (lightly beaten for dredging)
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs (for dredging)
- 2 tsps Italian Seasoning
- 1 tsp Oregano (optional)
- 2 ounces Parmesan Cheese grated (or the cheese of your choice)
Method
- Make Zoodles out of your Zucchini
- Mix Breadcrumbs, Italian Seasoning, Oregano and Parmesan Cheese.
- Lightly Beat Eggs
- Dredge a few Zoodles at a time in the flour.
- Shake off excess flour.
- Dip in the Eggs (Shake off excess)
- Coat with the breadcrumbs. (Shake off excess)
- Then onto the Vortex tray in a single layer. (don't pile them on top of each other)
- Keep doing this till all the Zoodles are coated and on the tray. (I had to do two batches)
- Select the Air Fry function at 400 and take the time down to 4 minutes.
- It will tell you to switch the trays at some point so you get an even cook - do it.
- Cover the door with foil before you take the tray out as crumbs will fall through the tray.
[…] I am finding the Vortex fairly easy to use. Of course there is a bit of a learning curve such as what program to use and what time and temperature to set it at. Being a novice in the kitchen I first read the manual and I also looked online for recipe and advice. Then as the dish is cooking I sit with my eyes glued to the window watching it cook so to be sure I don’t burn anything. So far – NO disasters. Everything I have cooked has come out delicious. Especially the Parmesan Zucchini Zoodles. […]
I love the descriptions of your evolution with the Instapots! Your descriptions give me confidence to begin with my pot that is still in the box due to my being a bit intimidated by a new way to cook. However your recipes, the pictures of the meals, and the descriptions are giving me both appetite and courage! Thank you!
