Air Fryer Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients Used:

Simple Instructions:
Start by cutting the top of the pepper, and then removing the seeds.
In a skillet, add the olive oil, and saute the onion, and ground beef, until browned. Drain if you have a lot of fat, then add it to a small mixing bowl, add in the tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salat, and pepper. Mix well.
Add the meat mixture to the inside of the hollowed-out bell pepper.

- If you have a hard time getting the pepper to stand, just cut the bottom, and make it even.

I generally use a regular-sized bell pepper. All full-sized bell peppers will all cook about the same. You can make it a colorful meal by switching up the colors and making dinner more playful. They come in a variety of colors, depending on which grocery store you visit. I have been lucky and found yellow, orange, red, and green.
