Tips
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can cook the potatoes in the oven at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
You can use one pound of chicken instead of ground beef.
Any microwavable white cheese dip can be used.
Russet potatoes are recommended.
Homemade or store-bought Pico de Gallo can be used, or taco sauce as an alternative.
