Notes

  • Cook the bacon in the air fryer at 400°f for five minutes to quickly crips it up.
  • Feel free to try using mild cheddar or extra sharp cheddar as well. This can definitely change the flavor a bit.
  • I recommend the deli sliced roasted red bell peppers. It's much easier than roasting your own, and they still have a lot of flavor.
