Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer at 350° fahrenheit.
- Add cheese and chicken to the tortillas.
- Fold the tortillas in half and push gently on them to keep them shut.

- Once cooked, place on a plate and let cool for about 1 minute. Carefully open the tacos a bit without breaking them to fill with avocado, tomato, lettuce, a squeeze of lime, chopped cilantro and salsa. Enjoy!
Notes
*Check the tacos after the 1st minute or 2 of cooking to make sure they didn't open. If they did, use a spatula to push them back down together. Once the cheese starts to melt, it won't be an issue and they'll stay shut. You can also use a toothpick to hold them together.
