Air Fryer Beef Taquitos

• servings: 8 servings
• total time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 lbs. ground beef (96/4)

4 oz. 1/3 less fat cream cheese

8 Mission Carb Balance Soft Taco Flour Tortillas

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. onion powder

1 tsp. garlic powder

2 tsp. paprika

1 Tbsp. chili powder

1 ½ Tbsp. ground cumin

5 Tbsp. water

Directions

Prep the ground beef. Add raw ground beef to a pan over medium and cook until cooked through. Break up with a spatula while cooking into small pieces.

Mix all the taco seasonings in a small bowl and combine with 5 Tbsp. of water. Mix together to create a slurry paste. Do not skip the water. Add to the ground beef and mix together well to evenly coat.

Add the cream cheese to the meat and break up with a spatula. Cook until the cream cheese has melted into the meat mixture.

Pre heat your air fryer and start rolling your air fryer beef taquitos.

Roll the taquitos, lay out each tortillas and top with evenly divided amounts of the meat mixture. If you want perfect measurements you will need to weigh your total meat mixture and divide by 8 to add evenly into the taquitos. Lay your mixture on the tortillas and roll leaving the ends open. Place in the basket of the pre heated air fryer and spray with cooking spray. I like to use Chosen Foods Avocado Spray, linked here.

Air fry taquitos, you will likely need to work in batches if you cannot fit all 8 in your air fryer. Air fry at 350 for 4 minutes. Flip and air fry at 350 for another 4 minutes. Remove and enjoy these delicious air fryer beef taquitos!!
