Air-Fried Stuffed Mini Sweet Peppers

2 Points

Serves 4

Air-Fried Stuffed Mini Sweet Peppers  are delicious—especially when they’re vessels for cheese.

Here, sweet baby bells are parcooked in the air fryer to soften, then stuffed with a blend baby bel cheese, creamy yogurt, and fresh herbs.

Pop the peppers back in the air fryer until they’re lightly browned and melty and your dream snack is served.
