Instructions

Taco Seasoning

Mix all of the ingredients together in a canning jar, make sure the lid is tight and shake until well combined.

Taco Salad

Add the ground beef to a skillet on medium-high. Stir fry and separate the beef using a wooden spatula for about 10 minutes, until browned.
Drain the beef of any excess grease and then stir in 2 Tablespoons of taco seasoning and combine well. About 5 minutes.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a bowl. Add the ground beef mixture and top with Mexican cream and cilantro.

Chef's Notes

You can add black olives and salsa if you prefer. Guacamole can be substituted for the avocado chunks and sour cream can be used instead of Mexican cream.
