Notes
- Mix it up by trying a different protein like shredded chicken, ground pork, or even plant-based crumbles. You can even change up the grain with brown rice, quinoa, barley, etc. We've also used this recipe with red or yellow bell peppers as well, so try out new combos to keep it interesting!
- Feeding more people? You can easily scale this recipe! Keep in mind that the average Foodi can fit 3-4 peppers, so you may have to air crisp in multiple batches if you're feeding a bigger crowd.
- Make this recipe even quicker by prepping the beef and rice filling in advance. You can easily refrigerate the filling for up to 3-5 days and then just stuff the peppers and air crisp when you're ready!
- Safety first! I love using my silicone oven mitts and tongs to keep myself safe while using my Foodi.
