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.

Be sure to preheat it before use! You can prep while it's preheating and it really cuts down on cook time.

One of my favorites is sweet potatoes and kielbasa. Cut up the sweet potato into 1/2 inch chunks, toss with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper (I also like thyme and a little rosemary, but that's up to you). Toss em in for 14 minutes at 400 or so, until they're fork tender and the sugar has started to caramelize on the outside.

While that's going on, slice the kielbasa into ~3 inch sections and slice each section in half length-wise. Fry in a bit of olive/vegetable oil until warmed through and crispy on the cut side. Combine and serve.

Might find it's not to your taste, but I find the sweet and salty combo to be a real winner.
