Taquitos:
1/3 pound beef
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
Pinch black pepper
3 medium-sized tortillas
1/2 cup Mexican blend cheese

1/2 zucchini, sliced into skinny matchsticks
1 teaspoon olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lime
Sprinkle of cumin
Sprinkle of smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste

To prepare taquitos: Preheat air fryer on 350F for 5 minutes. Season the ground beef and mix well. Add raw beef filling to the edges of the tortilla. Add cheese, then roll the tortilla tightly. Secure the tortilla with toothpicks. Lightly spray the taquitos evenly with oil. Add the taquitos in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry for about 8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Serve with tomatillo salsa and zucchini slaw.

To prepare slaw: In a small bowl, combine zucchini with lime juice, olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper, and jalapeño. Taste and add any seasoning, if needed. Allow to marinade for 10 minutes before serving.
