Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) box manicotti pasta

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 packet taco seasoning

  • 4 ounces diced green chiles

  • 1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes with green chiles, such as RO*TEL®, drained 

  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • 2 tablespoons milk or half-and-half

  • 3 cups finely crushed tortilla chips

  • salsa, hot sauce, sour cream, and/or guacamole for serving

Directions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.


  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and cook, crumbling with a spoon, until evenly browned, about 7 minutes. 


  • Add taco seasoning, green chiles, and RO*TEL and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and stir in Cheddar cheese. 


  • Fill each pasta shell with beef mixture and freeze for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. 


  • Meanwhile, whisk together eggs and milk in a shallow dish. Place crushed tortilla chips in a second shallow dish. Lighty coat filled pasta with egg wash and coat in crushed crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere if necessary.  


  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer’s instructions.


  • Working in 2 batches, air fry the pasta tacos for 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with desired toppings.
