I recently received a copy of the 5-Ingredient Air Fryer Recipes cookbook. I love my air fryer and didn’t waste time pouring over the collection of recipes by Camilla V. Saulsbury. The book contains 200 delicious recipes for breakfast, snacks, main dishes and everything in between. She has even included some Vegan mains. The bonus is that each recipe has no more than 5 ingredients (excluding salt, pepper, water, and cooking spray) and can the majority can be maid in 15-20 minutes.

We have already discovered a few new favorite recipes that we can’t wait to try but one recipe stood out as simply delicious and is sure to be a crowd pleasure. This Baked Potato Dip is made up of your favorite baked potato toppings and is easily adapted to a lighter version and can be eaten with potato chips or french fries.

• 1⁄4 cup (60 mL)  crumbled cooked bacon, divided
• 3 tbsp (45 mL) finely chopped green onions, divided

Suggested Accompaniment: Potato chips and/or French Fries

Tip -For a lighter dip, use reduced-fat cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and sour cream, and reduce the bacon by half.

Directions

• Preheat air fryer to 360°F (180°C)
• Spray a 6-inch (15 cm) round metal cake pan with nonstick cooking spray
