- Add a generous layer of mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top of the meat and sauce mixture.
- Arrange the sliced bell peppers evenly over the cheese.
- Place the assembled bowls in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Allow the bowls to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired.
Notes
For quicker prep, you can prepare the ground meat ahead of time. Consider adding extra toppings like olives, mushrooms, or fresh basil for additional flavor. Keep an eye on the bowls while baking to avoid burnt edges.
