Stuffed Zucchini with Ricotta and Ham in Air Fryer

Stuffed zucchini with ricotta and ham in air fryer

I received this giant zucchini from my friends’ garden, and what better way to cook it than stuffed? 😁 Since I now do everything in the air fryer, I also used it for this recipe. If you don’t have giant zucchinis like me, normal ones will do just fine 😅 A filling made with fresh ricotta, cooked ham, bread, and scamorza cheese! A simple and quick recipe to prepare that we can serve as a main dish since it contains a bit of everything!
