This was ok. Very bland. no one was impressed just kind of eh. I think taco bell meat has more flavor. In the end I added garlic, taco seasoning, salt, pepper , onion to spice it up. Maybe ok for a base.

Best way to make taco's: use flour tortilla, soft shells, brown meat, drain, add refried beans, mash real good, add salsa to this and heat all. Put in 1/2 of shell, fold over, fry in one inch of oil; brown both sides; remove, open and put shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes, sour cream, chopped lettuce . This is the best ever. Pgh. Phyl
