AIR FRYER PROSCIUTTO AND MOZZARELLA GRILLED CHEESE



Air Fryer Prosciutto and Mozzarella Grilled Cheese image

So easy to make and no mess! My favorite Italian deli made a similar sandwich but unfortunately they closed down, so I decided to make a dupe in my air fryer. This makes a very filling lunch, or you can cut it in half and share if pairing with a bowl of soup.

  • You can use any type of prosciutto that you like. If you're using pre-sliced prosciutto, be sure to cut it into small pieces before adding it to the tortellini.
  • The cooking time for the tortellini will vary depending on the size and type of tortellini that you're using. Be sure to check the package instructions for the recommended cooking time.
  • Serve the tortellini immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some good options include marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, or pesto.
