Accessories for Ninja Foodi

Ninja Foodi accessories

1. I use this Ninja Foodi egg mold all the time!
2. Having a vegetable steamer basket is a must. You’ll use it regularly for vegetables and making hard boiled eggs so they stay in place.
3. Using a pressure cooker bundt pan is great when you’re baking in your Ninja Foodi. See our cake below??!!
4. Making dishes like scalloped potatoes or baking cakes I use this springform pan

These are the top 4 I would definitely buy. If you only want to invest a little then go with these because they will work for a variety of meals and side dishes.

1. Not entirely a MUST but very helpful is this Foodi lid holder to keep it out of your way.
   1. I prefer this vs. putting it on my countertop when it is hot.
2. If you want an extra I like this package that includes an air fryer rack and pizza pan so you can make bacon easily and Ninja Foodi pizza is always fun!

Of course you can find Ninja foodi replacement parts too online if you need them. I have yet to need anything since you only have two pieces essentially but if you’re moving or have kids something may disappear. I get it.

Pressure Cooker accessories for the Ninja Foodi

• The least expensive and favorite Ninja Foodi accessory I use all the time is this (seen below) trivet with handles
  • I like it the best because it is small without any pieces sticking up on the sides. This allows me to put a larger pan/pot on top and it will sit flat.
  • You can also fold the handles in so the trivet is completely flat. This allows you to put an even larger pan/pot on top without it impeding the size on the sides.
• These pressure cooker stackable pans aren’t a must either but I’ve used them to make pressure cooker fish with vegetables at the same time.

You can use high trivets to do this same thing too like making fish and chips in it. Putting rice and water in the bottom with the meat or vegetables above it so they aren’t submerged into the liquid below.

These first few Ninja Foodi accessories I’m talking about are primarily for making pressure cooker recipes or “baking” in your new machine. I will speak briefly in a bit regarding the best air fryer accessories as well.

Here is one of my favorite things to use in my pressure cooker!!

I will share a few easy Ninja Foodi recipes I’ve created using this little blue guy. It’s not just for eggs as it states in it’s description, believe me.

Now if you’re wondering what you would use a Ninja Foodi egg mold for other than egg bites, let me tell you the possibilities are endless!

• I have made pressure cooker churro bites in them which are great for breakfast or dessert
  • These pressure cooker muffins were made one morning and the kids loved them
  • Pressure cooker pancakes are so fun and great for on the go mornings
• If you want to something like a Ninja Foodi cake you’ll need a pressure cooker bundt pan. I’ve used this to make air fryer banana bread as well. A springform pan is nice too.

I have this pretty springform pan on order. That takes a bit longer to cook since it is thicker in the middle.

Air Fryer Accessories

As for Ninja Foodi air fryer accessories these are the ones I recommend and have used.

• I actually really like the air fryer basket it comes with so there’s no need to buy an extra accessory as far as that is concerned.
  • I’ve used it for many things like
    • Ninja Foodi french fries
    • these air fryer breakfast stuffed peppers 
    • and Ninja Foodi kale chips were a real hit

If you cannot afford to buy any other Foodi accessories at the beginning, do not worry.

You can use what it comes with for almost everything, just not a few out of the box ideas you might find like pressure cooker egg bites.

• The trivet it comes with works ok for some things like Ninja Foodi baked potatoes if turned upside down. But for anything larger I suggest getting the trivet with handles I mention below.
• Not a necessity but I love this air fryer rack and pizza pan as it’s great for air fryer bacon as well as the kids love air fryer pizza for dinner.

You can also use the air fryer basket included to make your oinker slices, either way it’s the way to go!

The reason I prefer this method as opposed to a pan on the stovetop is the grease drains away! The slots in the basket ensure that every slice is CRISPY as ever, the rack follows the same concept.

As for other accessories I have tried there have been a few that were okay but I didn’t use them often enough to recommend you spending your money on them.

Yes you can buy an egg rack but if you just use this pressure cooker vegetable steamer then you’re set for both veggies and laying eggs in it.

All of these work well in a 6 or 8 quart pot, we have the smaller version and it works just fine.

I will point out that the majority of all things cooked with the air crisp mode just need the air fryer basket included. When we made air fryer okra, that’s what was used. It cleans up well and can be thrown in the dishwasher too.

When you make frozen food in Ninja Foodi pots, the basket works just fine too! My kids make snacks and their own lunches like air fryer fish sticks or air fryer corn dogs.

• If you haven’t tried cooking your favorite frozen foods in there you’ll be amazed at how much better they taste.
• We prefer this method WAY over and above cooking them in the oven now.
• The crunch is out of this world, like you get them in the restaurants I tell you.
