• Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking. Add jalapenos for some heat or diced tomatoes for freshness.
• If you don't have an air fryer, you can also bake the potato skins in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes.

Storage and Serving

• These nachos are best served immediately while the cheese is still melted and gooey.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the potato skins in the air fryer or oven until warmed through.
• Serve with additional sour cream and toppings, if desired.
