To prepare, you will typically brown ground meat or a meat substitute. Drain any excess fat. Then, stir in the included seasoning mix and water, simmering until the sauce thickens. Warm the taco shells according to package directions, which might involve heating them in an oven or microwave. Assemble the tacos by filling the warmed shells with the seasoned meat mixture and topping with your favorite additions like cheese, lettuce, or salsa. The included sauce can be added as a final touch.
How it differs from similar foods
This kit offers a pre-portioned and blended seasoning, differing from making your own spice blend from individual spices. The included shells are often baked for crispness, unlike some softer tortillas. The sauce provides a specific flavor profile that complements the seasoning.
