Nom, Nom, Nom! These were awesome! The simplicity and clean-up are a breeze when using the Ninja Foodi, or most all other Pressure Cookers. Today our family enjoyed a nice comforting Sunday supper.
How to make stuffed peppers in the Ninja Foodi

Topped Off with Baked Mozzarella Cheese
Topped off with a little baked on mozzarella cheese made this meal complete. Keep in mind this recipe can be made in any Pressure Cooker, Instant Pot, and other brands. Directions remain the same, except you will not get that baked-on cheese as you do with the Ninja Foodi bake option. It will simply be melted, but yummy too!

My prep time
My prep time was less than 15 minutes. Cook time total, less than 20 minutes. You can’t beat a hot delicious comforting meal all done in one pot, in less than 45 minutes.

I could have used yellow, or orange peppers as well, however, I decided to go to typical and traditional green peppers for this recipe. I hope you give it a try and let me know how they turned out. Enjoy.

What Sauce are you saying to add? there is no sauce in the list of ingredients.
She means for you to use ketchup or a tomato sauce on top once you’re done, if you desire.
Arrange your peppers in the crisping basket in the Foodi comes with, or a strainer basket that fits in your pot. Set right on top of the sauce in the pot. —This indicates sauce as part of cooking process. Do the mashed up plum tomatoes create the sauce?
Hi Teri Jean,
We have plans to redo this recipe.
I believe that she left out that you would need a can of tomato sauce. I would guess an 8 oz can to flavor the water that is required for the inside of the instant pot.
