Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Total time: 25 minutes

Ingredients
4 Bell peppers
1 cup cooked long grain rice (leftovers work well for this)
1 cup black beans
1/2 cup corn
1/2 cup salsa
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup vegan cheese (optional)

Directions
In a medium bowl, mix rice, black beans, corn, salsa, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.
It’s helpful for this mixture to be warm before it goes into the peppers, but since there’s no meat to cook, you can warm it in the microwave for two minutes and save on dishes.
Alternately, pour the mixture into a skillet on medium heat and stir occasionally until warmed through.

Wash the peppers thoroughly and cut a thin slice off the top of each.
Scoop out the seeds and discard the seeds and the tops.
Stuff the rice mixture evenly into the four peppers.

Place the peppers into a dish that will fit inside your air fryer’s basket for easier clean up, or place the stuffed peppers into the basket directly.
Set the air fryer to 375 degrees and cook for 10 minutes.

Once the cook time is complete, remove the tray from the air fryer and top each pepper with vegan cheese (or use regular cheddar cheese to make the dish vegetarian)
Replace the tray in the air fryer and cook for an additional 3 minutes.

Makes two servings as a main dish or four as a side dish.

Once the stuffed peppers are on your plate, you’ve now got a marvellous meal to enjoy as you read some of the interactive digital magazines and some of the thousands of articles on the Modern Mississauga website.
