Quinoa-stuffed peppers

Pretty easy to make stuffed peppers

The air fryer was able to roast the outside of the peppers while getting the insides very hot.

Even better: minimal cleanup!

Ingredients

• Leftover quinoa
• Large peppers
  • Here we cut the tops off
  • You can slice them in halves, making scoops/boats
• Salsa to mix into the quinoa
• Cheese as a topping

Procedure

• Prepare the peppers
• Mix the quinoa with the salsa in a bowl (this is the stuffing)
• Stuff the peppers
• Top the stuffed peppers with the cheese
• Air-fry for
  • 12 minutes at 350F for well-cooked
  • 20 minutes at 550F for nicely roasted
• Let cool for at least 10 minutes

It's best to leave a lot of room for the air to circulate.

After 10 minutes things have gotten hot.

After 20 minutes, the peppers have started to roast on the outside. There is a clearer photo below.

You can see how the skin of the pepper has roasted.
