Ingredients

  • 3 small sweet potatoes
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 6 oz. pulled pork
  • 1/2 c. BBQ sauce
  • 1 c. shredded sharp cheddar
  • 2 green onion diced
  • 1/2 c. sour cream

Instructions

  • Wash the sweet potatoes and add 3-4 cuts to the potatoes. Microwave for 6-8 minutes, depending on their size, until they are soft.
  • Using an oven mitt, slice the potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the potato flesh, leaving 1/4 inch around the edges. Save the scooped sweet potato for another use.
  • Brush the potato skins with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Arrange the skins in your Air Fryer basket and cook at 400° (or the highest available temp) for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the pulled pork with BBQ sauce and microwave for 2 minutes.
  • Top each cooked skin with about 1/4 cup BBQ pork and cover with shredded cheese. Cook for 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve topped with green onion and sour cream.
