Begin by cooking your ground beef or turkey in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a spatula to crumble the meat as it cooks for about 5-7 minutes, or until it is no longer pink. Once cooked through, drain any excess grease and sprinkle in the taco seasoning, stirring well to ensure all the meat is coated. Set the mixture aside to cool completely so the cheese doesn’t melt prematurely.

After the meat mixture has cooled, mix in the Mexican blend cheese. Stir well until the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the meat.

Next, carefully unroll the Pillsbury crescent roll dough and separate it into squares.

Now, take a generous spoonful of the cooled meat and cheese mixture and place it directly in the center of each dough square.

To seal the taco bombs, bring the corners of the dough up to the center and twist them gently to secure the filling inside. Pinch the seams firmly to ensure nothing leaks out during cooking.

Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). Once hot, carefully place the filled doughs in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

Once cooked, use tongs to carefully transfer the Easy Air Fryer Taco Bombs to a serving plate. Let them cool for a moment before serving.
