Simple Taco Bowls

The only bad taco is the one you didn't eat. 

My family and I are HUGE Taco Tuesday fans.  We eat tacos lots of different ways, one of those ways being in a bowl.  It's fun to grab an over-sized bowl, put in your taco meat and toppings, then mix it altogether for a healthy and delicious meal.  Our ground meat is flavored with 8 different spices to really bring out the fiesta flavor!  Feel free to mix these 8 taco seasonings together in a small jar ahead of time and store in your pantry for easy future cooking.

Let's get your favorite taco toppings ready to create a tasty taco bowl!
