Instructions:

1. Start by preparing the Rotel dip. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the Velveeta cheese, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Once melted, add the can of Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies. Stir until well combined and heated through. Set aside.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning to the cooked ground beef. Stir well to combine, ensuring the beef is evenly coated with the seasoning. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Wash the bell peppers thoroughly, then slice them into thin strips or rounds, whichever you prefer. Remove the seeds and membranes from the inside of the peppers.
4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
5. Arrange the sliced bell peppers in a single layer on the air fryer tray. If you prefer extra crispy peppers, you can roast them in the air fryer for 3-5 minutes before adding toppings.
6. Once the bell peppers are arranged, spoon the taco-seasoned ground beef over them, distributing it evenly.
7. Pour the prepared Rotel dip over the bell peppers and ground beef, ensuring each pepper slice is covered with the cheesy goodness.
8. Place the loaded air fryer tray back into the air fryer and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning, as cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer.
9. Once done, carefully remove the air fryer tray from the air fryer and let the bell pepper nachos cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Serve your delicious air-fried bell pepper nachos immediately as a tasty keto-friendly snack or appetizer. Enjoy the crunchy, cheesy goodness guilt-free
