Ingredients
  

1 pound ground beef (or turkey for a lighter option)

1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade mix)

1 cup refried beans

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)

8 small flour tortillas

Cooking spray or olive oil for brushing

Sour cream, salsa, or guacamole for dipping (optional)

Fresh cilantro or green onions, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Filling: Begin by browning the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and a splash of water; mix well and simmer for 5 minutes until the flavors meld. Stir in the refried beans, corn, and half of the shredded cheese. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

    Assemble the Taco Rolls: Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface. Place a generous amount of the taco filling in the center of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to create a secure roll.

      Prepare for Air-Frying: Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C). Lightly spray the taco rolls with cooking spray or brush them with olive oil to ensure they get crispy in the air fryer.

        Air-Fry the Taco Rolls: Place the rolls seam-side down in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they’re not overcrowded (you may need to work in batches). Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.

          Serve and Enjoy: Once done, remove the taco rolls from the air fryer. Let them sit for a minute to cool slightly. Serve with your choice of sour cream, salsa, or guacamole, and garnish with fresh cilantro or chopped green onions if desired.
