Equipment

  • Air Fryer We use and LOVE our Ninja Max XL Air Fryer almost daily!
  • Glass Meal Prep Containers These single-compartment glass containers are fantastic for storing and reheating!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 (12 oz. pkg.) chicken sausage sliced
  • 2 medium bell peppers any color, cut into 1" pieces
  • 1 medium red onion cut into 1" pieces
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees. (Check your owners manual for exact preheat times, as times may vary by model.)
  • To a mixing bowl, add the chopped peppers, onion and sliced sausage. Add in the olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Using a rubber scraper, toss the ingredients together well to coat everything evenly with the olive oil and seasonings.
  • Pour the mixture into the preheated air fryer basket. Cook at 375 degrees for 12 minutes total. Pause the air fryer at the 6 minute point to toss the ingredients well so everything browns evenly.
  • Serve and enjoy right away while hot.

Notes

Meal Prep Instructions: Prepare according to the recipe. Once sausage and peppers have cooled, divide evenly into meal prep containers. One serving is approximately 1 1/2 cups, and will make 4 servings.
