We are big on Mexican food around here.  It is hands down my favorite.  It’s really easy to make too!  Well, let me tell you, I have to stock pile those little taco seasoning packets like were preparing for WW3.  Until now my friends.  I have to give a shout out to my BFF, Mel, since this was her idea.  Behold the taco seasoning in bulk.  I bought this at Sam’s Club for $4.  Four dollars!!  Each small little packet I buy is about $1.  What a deal.  So, I leave you with my Grandma’s Taco Soup recipe.  Enjoy, and go get the taco seasoning!
