Ok, we are enjoying the air fryer.

Ingredients:

• 1 package uncured chicken, bacon and cheddar sausage
• 1 green pepper, sliced
• 1 yellow pepper, sliced
• 1 sweet onion, sliced
• Salt and Pepper to Taste

Directions:

Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees (takes about 3 minutes).

Slice the peppers and onions.

Add the sausage to air fryer and cook for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, flip the sausage and add the peppers and onions.

Cook an additional 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper

The local market has slowed a bit during the past few weeks, probably due to the beginning of summer, Father’s Day, slightly higher mortgage rates (up to 3% now approximately from a low of 2.5% in February), and a weaker stock market. Local inventory levels are up a little bit, as they are also up nationally. I saw a statistic last week which said that inventories are up about 6% in the nation. A 6% increase is not huge considering the extremely low levels we’ve had for such a long time.
