Pork Taco Feast

Tacos is a Mexican street food and appetizer which most Pinoys come to love the taste. There are also many version of tacos, depending on the kind of meat or veggies that you will put into it. This recipe I have here has ground pork sauteed until brown, seasoned with taco seasoning mix, then mixed with veggies like lettuce, tomatoes, green pepper, onion and cucumber then topped with shredded cheese.

Taco seasoning mix can be found in supermarkets usually Mc Cormick is selling them but just in case you can’t find it, you can also make your own. Just mix 2 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp cornstarch, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp cayene pepper.
