I made this on 1/23/10 for mine and SO's dinner. I cheated a bit when making this recipe, leftovers from Recipe#107514 was used. And for the taco seasoning, Recipe#199955 was used. The cheese that was used for this recipe, was a blend of six different types of Mexican cheese. My SO and both thought that this could be " Kicked Up " a bit. If this is made again, I'm going to add some crushed red pepper flakes when cooking the ground beef. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "
