What is your home made taco seasoning?

Sorry! I just added the link to the post – https://www.eatingonadime.com/how-to-make-homemade-taco-seasoning/
Betsy Rawlins says
I would spread a can of refried beans in the bottom of the dish before adding the mixed spread. Think it would give it a more solid base and a little extra taste.
Anna Sticken says

Similar to mine, but I add a 1/4 c miracle whip to my base. Try it and see what you think. Thanks for the recipes
Carrie says
Thanks for the recommendation Andrea! I will try that 🙂
Amanda says
I use a can of green chilies instead of lettuce. It’s not spicy and everyone loves it
Carrie says
Great idea!
Kathy says
Add refried beans, a layer of guacamole, a layer of salsa, some black olives and green onions and you have a favorite dip we use here all the time.
Carrie says
Yum! That sounds delicious Kathy! 🙂
Trc says
Instead of cream cheese, mash one avocado, add the taco seasoning mix well ( by hand is fine ) then add the sour cream.
Top with diced tomato, grated cheese & finely slices shallots ( green onions) Delicious
Carrie says
Sound delicious!
Selma says
I make this but I put a layer of refried beans in the bottom and add sliced black olives to the top.
Carrie says
