the finished product
Recently my kids were doing the "tacos! tacos!" chant. I had my ground beef browned, and was ready to add my taco seasoning packet, when low and behold my pantry was fresh out! I ALWAYS have taco seasoning packets on hand... now what? Time for a little creative cooking. Looked up the ingredients of my favorite taco seasoning, (isn't Google Grand?) and whipped up some of my own. Now I have a jar of it on hand for whenever the "taco chant" starts. Couldn't be easier to make, and tastes SO GOOD!!
So this year, I thought, maybe I will make up a bunch and put some into cute little decorated jars for a few of my favorite Dads for Father's Day. Here's how they turned out. This with a 6 pack of his favorite Mexican beer? Sound like a great gift to me!
mmmmmmm..... tacos and beer....delightful!
