Air fryer broccoli changed my lunch routine for the better

I eat it every day now and feel more energetic in the afternoons.

Ever have a piece get SO dark it sets off the smoke alarm? My entire kitchen smelled like a campfire last week because I got distracted. Still ate it though, kinda crispy and bitter, and I did feel pretty good after.

I just toss it out when it gets that dark. Burnt food might make you feel weird later even if it seems fine at first. Not worth the risk for me.

Is the smoke alarm just your way of adding extra seasoning, @mileslane? That charred taste is really something.

Reading how your burnt food set off the smoke alarm, @mileslane, I always threw out anything with more than a light brown color. Then I accidentally left some Brussels sprouts in the oven until they were nearly black, and they had this sweet, almost nutty taste. @the_brooke, your line about extra seasoning hit home after that. I started letting my grilled cheese get a dark crunch on the bread, and it just tastes better to me now. A little char can turn something simple into a real treat.
