Savory Air Fryer Cauliflower Meatballs

Today I prepared these very tasty cauliflower meatballs, a delicious way to use up the cauliflower I had boiled a couple of days ago, but was forgetting in the fridge. Very flavorful, easy, and quick to prepare. I cooked them in the air fryer but you can bake them in the oven or fry them directly. Either way, they will be delicious.
