I’ve never met a taco I didn’t like. (Except for that one time in Montana, when I went to a restaurant that bragged about being “home of the fluffy taco.” Yeah, those were awful. But that’s a story in itself and we’ll just save that one for another day.) Basically, we have some version of tacos every other week (if not EVERY week… because #tacosarelife) but I’m especially fond of Venison Tacos because we always have a freezer full of venison burger and they are literally the easiest meal EVER.
These are a week night staple in our household. This homemade taco seasoning is great with venison but you could use it with any type of meat (hamburger, ground turkey, chicken.) Enjoy!
