Ingredients

1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey)

1 packet taco seasoning

1/4 cup water

1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

1/4 cup diced onions (optional)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus more for topping)

1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)

Cooking spray or melted butter (for brushing)

Instructions

In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned and fully done. Drain excess grease.
Stir in taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Simmer until thickened.
Add diced bell pepper and optional onions. Cook 2–3 more minutes. Remove from heat.
Flatten each biscuit into a 4-inch circle.
Spoon taco filling into the center, top with cheese, and fold dough over to seal into a ball.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket. Place bombs seam-side down with space in between.
Air fry at 350°F for 8–10 minutes until golden brown.
In the last 2 minutes, top each bomb with extra cheese and finish cooking until melted.
Let cool slightly before serving.
