Costco members know the wholesale giant’s aisles are filled with great deals that can not only help you save money shopping but also be turned into quick-and-easy meals.
Add an air fryer into the mix, and those meals may become even easier and a bit healthier. If you have invested in an air fryer, you know that you can cook many meals in it that would normally take longer to make using an oven.
Following are 10 perfect Costco items to turn into quick and delicious meals if you cook them in your air fryer.
Editor's note: prices are subject to change and may vary by location.
You can make your own wings to toss into your air fryer. However, if you simply don’t have the time, Foster Farms Take Out Crispy Chicken Wings are a great solution.
At Costco, you can currently buy a 4-pound bag for just under $22. The bag also comes with classic buffalo dipping sauce.
Buying Tyson Sausage Patties for your air fryer is another way to keep the mess in your kitchen to a minimum.
Costco sells a 4-pound bag for just under $17. The patties come fully cooked and in a resealable bag.

You’ve likely heard of fried ravioli, but how about air-fried? Costco also offers deals on many different types of ravioli, including two 22-ounce bags of Kirkland Signature’s Organic Spinach and Cheese Ravioli for around $13.
Boil the ravioli for a few minutes, dredge it in some egg and then cover in breadcrumbs. Once it is ready, toss it in the air fryer for your very own air-fried ravioli.
4. Ore-Ida Bagel Bites
Bagel bites also get a nice, delicious crunch when you cook them in the air fryer. At Costco, you can nab a box of 72 Ore-Ida Bagel Bites Pizza Snacks for around $12.
