  1. Yum, delicious! I used crispy tacos, refried beans, and put out lettuce, Recipe #362382, light sour cream and a Mexican cheese blend. It was fun to pass the toppings around and do build-your-own too. Thanks for sharing! ZWT8
     
  2. The beef is really yummy with the taco seasoning (I made it with recipe#1171) I omitted the refried beans. In mine I used green lettuce, diced red bell pepper, shredded cheese and sour cream. I used a tortilla. My boyfriend added salsa to his. Thanks Dreamer :) Made for Newest Zaar tag
     
  3. You could also add TVP instead of the meat. 1 cup dry to one cup 3/4 water. Wait 10 minutes then continue with rest of recipe as is.
     
  4. The flavors in this are yummy. But, be careful and make sure you use "vegetarian re-fried beans" if you are doing a vegetarian version because the regular ones have lard in them. This was very good!
