Description

Air Fryer Lasagna Stuffed Peppers are a low-carb, flavorful twist on classic lasagna, filled with seasoned beef, ricotta, and marinara sauce, all perfectly cooked in the air fryer.

Ingredients 

  • 1 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 14.5 ounces canned tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 bell pepper halves
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they become translucent.
  • Add the ground beef to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 7-8 minutes, breaking up the meat, until it is fully cooked.
  • Stir in the tomato sauce and Italian seasoning, and simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  • In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, and Parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth.
  • Spoon some of the meat sauce into the bottom of each bell pepper half. Add a layer of the ricotta mixture, then top with the remaining meat sauce.
  • Place the stuffed peppers in the air fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 350°F and cook for 8-12 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
  • Top each stuffed pepper with shredded mozzarella cheese and return to the air fryer. Let the residual heat melt the cheese, or if needed, set the temperature to 250°F and air fry for a few more minutes.
  • Plate the stuffed peppers, serve, and enjoy!
