Air Fryer Crustless Pizza Bowl

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).

6. Divide the meat and vegetable mixture evenly into the bowls.
7. Top each bowl with shredded mozzarella cheese and add optional pepperoni slices on top.
8. Place the bowls in the air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
9. Carefully remove the bowls from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
