Taco Meatballs In the Air Fryer

Recipe by Sheri Tomato

Spicy, delicious meatballs you can use so many ways. Put them in a hoagie. Put them on top of a salad with a little salsa and sour cream. Serve them on a party platter with toothpicks and individual dip cups. Very easy recipe. You can serve them immediately or freeze them to use in a pinch when you need to serve up an appetizer quick. And of course, they are always great to add to a spaghetti sauce. Who needs frozen meatballs from the supermarket when you can make your own.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/4 cup salsa

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp cumin

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp pepper

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper

  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs

Directions

  • Break up ground beef in large bowl. Add eggs and salsa. Combine well.
  • Add in the seasonings and breadcrumbs. Mix until everything is thoroughly combined.
  • Shape each meatball into the size of a golf ball. You should end up with about 20 meatballs.
  • Place your meatballs in a single layer in your air fryer, with none of them touching each other. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to work in batches. Cook at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 -15 minutes until they are browned and reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
