Taco Filling

Finding a good taco filling recipe can often be difficult. If you have been searching for a good recipe, the search has come to an end. After trying this you'll never use another store-bought seasoning mix again. One thing I really enjoy about this recipe is that it isn’t overloaded with seasonings like most taco fillings. This recipe uses ingredients such as diced tomatoes, onion, garlic and various seasonings to create a near perfect blend. This seasoning can be used with either ground beef or ground turkey. Top these tacos with guacamole, shredded cheese, or whatever you like. Enjoy with a Margarita!
