When selecting the potatoes, choose ones that are high in starch, like Russet or Idaho, for a fluffier interior.
For the beef mixture, use lean ground beef with a fat content of around 10-15% for the best flavor and texture.

Chef Sofia’s Tested Swaps (High-Protein · Keto/Low-Carb · Air Fryer)
• High-Protein Boost: Add 1/4 cup (30g) of crumbled feta cheese to the beef mixture for an extra 5g of protein.
• Keto & Low-Carb Swap: Replace the cheddar cheese with 1/4 cup (28g) of grated Parmesan cheese for a lower-carb option.
• Air Fryer Option: Cook the potatoes in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes,
shaking halfway, for a crispy exterior and fluffy interior.
