Directions

  1. Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise; cut a thin slice from the bottoms so they sit flat. Scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-in. shells.
  2. In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat, cook beef and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in Havarti cheese, 1/2 cup feta cheese, basil, salt and pepper.
  3. Preheat air fryer to 350°. Fill zucchini with meat mixture. Place on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook 8 minutes. Top with remaining 1/4 cup feta; cook until zucchini is tender and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
