My parents got me one of them fancy countertop air fryer/oven things and idk what to cook first when I get it set up. According to the box, it does everything a normal oven does as well as air fries. It can hold two whole chickens or 1 frozen pizza. It came with a rack for things like toast and a baking sheet. I also have a bunch of pans and stuff that I was given when I got my house that I've never used.

I don't know much about actually cooking food other than chicken should not be medium rare and that the cereal goes before the milk.

Brussels sprouts in the airfryer are amazing - but pretty much any vegetables go well, are quick, easy and healthy. If healthy is not your thing, anything in the frozen aisle (chips, hash browns, onion rings, chicken nuggets and fish fingers, etc) are also incredibly easy and always work.

I'll second this. Try veggies, esp. brussels sprouts for sure. A little salt and pepper is all you need when they're roasted properly.

Then if you think you can safely live with the knowledge that you can make fast food restaurant onion rings at home, try that next. It's kinda amazing.
