    I found this made flavorful taco meat with a great texture. It was really bland to my taste, so I added a bit of New Mexico Chile Powder and more paprika. Great recipe!

    This had a wonderful texture and flavor for taco meat. I used 97% lean beef, half whole wheat and enriched white flour and heaped up on the chili powder. I am going to try next time to cook the meat separate and drain to cut down on the fat... I'll let you know how it turns out. Thank you for the recipe.
