      Did you make your own taco seasoning? If not, what brand did you use? This was my favorite school lunch and I cannot wait to try your recipe. Thank you.

        I didn't make my own, but used a traditional taco seasoning Old El Paso from the store. I swear, it tastes JUST LIKE it did in school! I hope you LOVE it too!!
