HEALTHY LOADED POTATO SKINS

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F or use an air fryer basket.

Step 2

Prick potatoes with a fork, oil and salt and bake for 1 hour in the oven, or until fork tender. If using air fryer like I did, bake at 400F for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Slice potatoes in half and allow to cool slightly.

Step 4

While cooling, in a pan over medium heat, add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and cook down onions, garlic, bell peppers and tomatoes (sprinkle over some sea salt) until slightly tender, about 8 minutes.

Step 5

Scoop out the flesh out of the potatoes, leaving a thin but sturdy enough layer of potato inside. Add the filling to a bowl with the onions, garlic, bell peppers, diced tomatoes, black beans, sour cream, cheese, salt, pepper, paprika and jalapeño. Stir together and set aside. Give it a taste to see if it might need any more salt.

Step 6

Rub the bottoms of the potato skins with the rest of the oil, place bottom up, and bake for another 5-10 minutes until crispy OR in air fryer at 400F for 7 minutes. Remove from oven and fill with the potato mixture.

Step 7

Top evenly with the cheese and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes in the oven at 375F until cheese is melted. If using air fryer, I recommend using the oven for this step to ensure your vegan cheese actually melts, but you can do 370F in the air fryer for 10 minutes either way.

Step 8

Remove from oven and top with coconut bacon or other veggie bacon option and chives.

Step 9

Serve with vegan sour cream or vegan yogurt and the lime half to squeeze over. Enjoy!
