Feta and Quinoa Stuffed Mushrooms
A bite-size morsel of warm mushrooms filled with salty feta, nutty quinoa, and sweet red peppers is a tasty way to begin any evening. This easy appetizer is ready in under 15 minutes and is always a crowd-pleaser.
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 360°F.
- In a small bowl, combine the bell pepper, garlic, quinoa, salt, and oregano.
- Spoon the quinoa stuffing into the mushroom caps until just filled.
- Add a small piece of feta to the top of each mushroom.
- Sprinkle a pinch bread crumbs over the feta on each mushroom.
- Spray the basket of the air fryer with olive oil cooking spray, then gently place the mushrooms into the basket, making sure that they don't touch each other. (Depending on the size of the air fryer, you may have to cook them in two batches.)
- Place the basket into the air fryer and bake for 8 minutes.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve.
AIR FRYER HACK:
If your air fryer comes with a tray to sit inside the basket, you can place the mushrooms onto the tray, then place the tray inside the air fryer to bake. This makes it easier to remove them for serving.
