Thanks for the recipes. I cut/pasted them to an email until I have time to jot them down later.
I completely understand about the flu. DD was sick all last week with it. We are still staying in this week, just because any activity seems to spark the cough.

Nice recipe. Also the store bought ones have MSG added which is a shame.

This is great! Thanks so much for sharing! We use taco seasoning around here several times a month! I don't know why I haven't thought of making it myself....

I had to make home made seasoning one time due to the desperate need and lack of. Since then, I love making it. Great money saver and it doesn't have all the extra JUNK in it ;-).
Hope you all are feeling well soon.
