A comforting and satisfying meal that combines crispy potatoes, juicy beef, and gooey melted cheese in a convenient bowl, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (lean preferred)
  • 1 lb red potatoes, diced
  • 1–2 cups shredded cheddar or Colby Jack cheese
  • 1 cup chopped lettuce or mixed greens
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon yellow or Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning (adjust to taste)
  • Pickles
  • Extra lettuce
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Air fry for 16–18 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat with a bit of olive oil. Add the diced onions and cook for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, increase the heat to medium-high. Add the ground beef, breaking it up and pressing it into the pan to create crispy edges. Cook for 5–7 minutes until well-browned. Season with salt and pepper, and drain excess fat if needed.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and Cajun seasoning until smooth.

Notes

Choose lean ground beef for less fat. Adjust seasoning to taste. Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
