Here is an alternative to the seasoning mix taco dinner. And let me start of by saying... that I love the taco seasoning mix. It makes delicious tacos and we usually have it once a week. It's definitely one of our go to meals (and I even blogged about it!). However, I felt like I needed something more. I haven't cooked dinner in a couple of days because we have had a lot of night outs so I was craving a good meal at home... but nothing extravagant. I was just in the mood to put on my apron and whip up a meal.
I googled ground beef taco recipes and I landed on one that I knew I had to try. The reviews were fantastic and everyone who commented mentioned they wouldn't go back to the seasoning mix after they tried this.
It is Emeril's taco bar. Although I didn't make the salsa or gaucomole (those reviews weren't AS POSITIVE...), I knew the taco seasoning was something that I had to try.

It is tastes fresh and not full of sodium. You know what you are putting into a dinner, not just throwing a seasoning mix into a pan!
I made some yellow rice as a side dish and we had a delicious meal. After we finished, we agreed that we wouldn't toss the idea of using a seasoning mix because it is helpful for a quick dinner, as this is a healthier alternative.
