Could cooked ground beef be used instead of chicken if all of the grease is removed?
Hi Carol,
I haven't made on that way, but you can try. Sounds like a good idea..

I made these for Christmas Day, would add some other ingredients if I ever were to make them again.
You can add, Jeanne.

Do we cook the tortilla?
No, Maria.
Enjoy!
What type of cheese do you use-medium cheddar or Mexican blend
I used medium cheddar cheese, Vickie.

I made these and I found them very easy to make and tasty. The Taco seasoning was very good but a bit overpowering to the other ingredients so I just added an extra dollop of sour cream and it balanced out perfectly, for us. Otherwise, I made no other changes and stuck to the recipe as written. Very good and will be making again for sure! Thank you for sharing, very good!
Thank YOU, Mellie. I'm so glad you liked it.
