Taco Seasoning – I usually keep things simple and just use a packet of the taco seasoning from the store but this taco seasoning recipe would work well too! We’re only using a half pound of ground beef here so don’t use an entire packet of taco seasoning or it’ll probably be a little too over seasoned.
Dairy – We’re making this a creamy filling by stirring in cream cheese and sour cream and then sprinkling cheddar over it all.
Tortillas – You’ll need some large flour tortillas for to prepare these roll ups. Corn tortillas would also work!
How to Make Cheesy Taco Roll Ups:
Taco Meat – Add some ground beef to a small skillet and brown it. When cooked through, drain the grease and add 1/4 cup of water and the two tablespoons of taco seasoning. You shouldn’t need a whole packet! Stir and let it cook until the liquid has evaporated. Alternately, use around 1 cup of leftover taco meat.
Filling – Add the seasoned taco meat, cream cheese, and sour cream to a bowl and mash it together with a fork until it is well combined. You can add salt to taste. Once you’ve prepared the filling divide in evenly between 2 tortillas and spread it to the edges. Finally, sprinkle on the cheddar cheese.
Roll & Cut – Roll each tortilla up tightly and use a sharp knife to trim the ends off and then cut each tortilla into 5 pinwheels.
Air Fry – Arrange the pinwheels in your air fryer basket in an even layer and then air fry at 370 degrees for 5 minutes. We line our air fryer with this air fryer parchment paper so that nothing sticks.
