    Very Good
    So good! Used Chef Meg's taco seasoning, my home made salsa & low fat cheddar. I wish there was an easier way to redo the nutritional info after making changes. Will make again! - 2/1/17

    Sounds great and I love that it's going in the slow cooker. Because I'm doing very low sodium and sugar, would make a taco blend to taste, commercial blends are too high in salt. Corn from a cob is easy and tastes so much better. If not making salsa, I'd really look at nutrition facts for dif brands - 7/21/11
