Ingredients

4 servings
  • 2 large bell peppers (or 4 small bell peppers)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • ½ onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ½ cup instant rice (or minute rice)
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 cups pasta sauce (divided)
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps

  1. Preheat air fryer to 320°F.

  2. Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise and scrape out seeds (if using small peppers, cut off tops instead).

  3. Brush peppers with olive oil and place in the air fryer basket. Cook 5-6 minutes.

  4. While peppers are cooking, brown beef, onion, and garlic in a medium saucepan until no pink remains. Drain fat.

  5. Add instant rice, Italian seasoning, water, and 1 cup pasta sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 3-4 minutes.

  6. Scoop the mixture into the peppers and top with remaining sauce. Turn air fryer up to 350°F and cook 8-10 minutes or until heated through and peppers are soft. Top with cheese and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
