Nothing fancy of course. Raid your fridge and use whatever vegetables you have there, or whatever catches your attention. Primarily, you can use all types of colored peppers, green peppers, red onion, jalapeno, and mushrooms. I use lots of chopped garlic to enhance the taste. Tofu can be used as a vegan alternative.

Grill them at 360 F in the air fryer for 7-8 minutes or till they look perfectly cooked for your taste.
