This is always a great side dish, but by putting meat in there, it is also a great main dish!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely talking my language here Ramona! I could make a meal out of one of these!
ReplyDeleteThat's a smart idea to reuse taco mix in a potato. I am still very new to Mexican food and I don't mind playing around as you might know already. =)
