Sloppy Joe Air Fryer Stuffed Potatoes

🧂 Ingredients

• 4 good-sized Yukon gold potatoes

  baked in air fryer or oven, plus olive oil [https://amzn.to/3mAyLk3] to coat (see note)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

  or avocado oil [https://amzn.to/41b18Ed]
• 1 large white or sweet onion

  diced small
• 1 large bell pepper

  any color, diced small
• 3 cloves garlic

  minced
• 1 pound ground beef

  pastured
• 1 can

  (6 ounces) tomato paste
• 2 teaspoons coconut sugar

  or brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon prepared spicy yellow mustard

  or Dijon
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

• 1 Cook the potatoes (see note below for air fryer directions) and set aside.
• 2 In a pot or large skillet on medium heat, heat the olive oil
  [https://amzn.to/3mAyLk3] and add the onions. Saute the onions until just
  translucent, about 3 minutes.
• 3 Stir in the bell peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes more until peppers are
  starting to change color.
• 4 Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• 5 Add the ground beef and cook, stirring and breaking it all up, until all the
  pink color is gone.
• 6 Stir in the remaining ingredients and simmer for at least 10 minutes. Taste to
  see if it needs a little more salt or vinegar. Remember that the potatoes aren't
  salted so you can make the mixture just a bit saltier than you might otherwise.
• 7 Cut the cooked potatoes almost in half and press gently open. Spoon the Sloppy
  Joe filling on top of each open potato. OPTIONAL GARNISHES: Top with cheese, if
  desired, and a dollop of yogurt (or sour cream) - dairy or non-dairy. Garnish
  with sliced green onions and parsley.
