Air Fryer Stuffed Peppers

🧂 Ingredients

• 4 bell peppers
• 4 cloves minced garlic
• ⅛ cup red onion

  diced
• 1 pound extra lean ground beef

  96%
• ½ cup crushed tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons Taco Bell
• 1 cup cooked rice
• ⅓ cup shredded lite Mexican cheese
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon oregano

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees (375 degrees if you like the peppers
  toasty/softer). Cut the tops off of the pepper. Then, remove the seeds and the
  core. 
• 2 Cook the peppers in the air fryer for 10 to 14 minutes, depending on how soft
  you like your peppers. Try not to let the peppers touch as they need as much air
  flow as possible. 
• 3 Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium high heat. Drizzle with oil or grease
  with cooking spray. Once heated, add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes,
  until softening. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until
  fragrant. 
• 4 Add the ground beef and start breaking it up. Sprinkle on the seasonings and
  continue to breakup while cooking. Continue to break up and mix in the
  seasonings until the beef is fully cooked. 
• 5 Once cooked, add in the sauce, tomatoes and cooked rice. Then, toss everything
  together and bring to a slight simmer. Simmer for 3 minutes. 
• 6 Once the peppers are almost done, stuff the meat mixture into each pepper. Top
  with shredded cheese and air fryer for another 3 minutes, until the cheese is
  melted.
