Good Ol' American Cookin'

Mtn Man has issues with the packaged taco seasoning so I thought I would find a recipe that I could make here at home. I found one ( http://allrecipes.com/recipe/taco-seasoning-i/ ) that works for us. When I use it I add 2 Tbls to 1 lb of ground meat. Recipe: 1 Tbs. Chili Powder 1/4 tsp. Garlic Powder 1/4 tsp. Onion Powder 1/4 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes or Cayenne works too 1/4 tsp Dried Oregano or Herb Mix  1/2 tsp Paprika 1 1/2 tsp Ground Cumin 1 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Pepper Store in an airtight container such as a jelly jar with a canning lid. Enjoy!

On today's menu, I made "TACOSAGNA". I found this recipe on Mennonite Girls Can Cook . It was yummy! I made some adaptations to the recipe as we are still trying to watch our carb intake a bit but didn't want to ruin the "ambiance" of the dish. My recipe is as follows: 2 lbs of ground cooked, 1 packet of taco seasoning added to meat, 2 cans of corn added to meat, 1-12oz jar of salsa added to meat and cooked for about 10-15 mins. Then in separate dish I lined the bottom with meat mixture, not a lot just enough for a base, then added two reg size flour tortillas on top of meat. Added meat mix, grated cheese and then about 1/2 cup of sour cream spread out on this layer. Another two tortillas then meat mix and cheese and at this point should have run out of meat and cheese and pan is full!!! Cover and put in oven or on a grill at 350* for about an 45mins-1hr.
