I have had this in my cookbook for a while and am sorry it took me so long to prepare it! It is delicious! I reduced the recipe amount by 1/3 because I only had 1 lb. of ground beef. I only used a smidgen of cumin, because I don't like to really taste it as the "main feature" in a recipe. Other than this, I followed the reciped as directed. I did find that I did not need to simmer as long as the recipe called for. I used this to make what I call a "stack". In a pie plate, I layered as follows, 1 flour tortilla, enchilada filling, homemade salsa, cheese and repeated the layering, ending with a flour tortilla on top spread with salsa and cheese! Popped it in the oven for 15-20 minutes and it was delicious! DH and I really enjoyed this! Thanks EGA!

This is awesome! I made this for my bf and put it in burritos. I make burritos quite often with a store package of seasoning. He kept eating and saying "wow this is really really good tonight!" I finally told him why it was so good and now I have to make mexican ground beef this way every time. Thanks!

Great flavor!! DH grew up "west of the fox" (Dekalb, Il.) so this caught my eye and caught his attention when I served the filling in tortillas with cheese and sour cream. Leftovers were rolled with ranch beans and frozen for quick lunches. I especially like the ingredients - no preservatives! We'll make these again. Thanks!

Very good! I'm on a low carb diet and served this in recipe#85258 Low Carb Taco Shells. The adjustments I did not add flour and I omitted the garlic and onion because the homemade taco seasoning I used already contains both onion and garlic powder; I used all the other ingredients stated. Thanks for posting!
