Taco Seasoning
This taco seasoning is so good and so easy and quick to put together . You can even omit the salt for those of you who’s on low sodium diet .

I’ve used this recipe for regular chicken taco , which is cooked in slow cooker if i feel lazy , just dump the chicken breast , boneless , skinless with diced tomatoes and onion and rub with this spices all over .…

Burrito
Usually we like to have taco on Tuesdays , but this morning i mentioned about why not trying to make our own burritos . How hard can it be ?

I thought it would be a better idea making our own too , thinking about how much my family loves burrito , the boys love to order burritos when we used to go our favorite mexican restaurant .
