Old El Paso Taco Seasoning Review and Giveaway - CLOSED

Acting Balanced Mom was invited by MyBlogSpark and Old El Paso® to make sure that taco night was on our calendar this month!  To do that, they sent our family a cool package of stuff that included Taco Seasoning Mix, some funky chili shaped dishes, a cactus serving dish and a $10 visa gift card to buy the rest of our taco fixings...


Well, we went fairly traditional with a Greek Twist yesterday - our change up from our normal taco routine was to add feta cheese to the yummy Old El Paso® seasoning mix in Taco flavor, ground beef, salsa, sour cream and authentic Mexican cheese blend we like to use on our tacos!  We also used Old El Paso® Soft Taco shells for our taco creations! It was a huge hit and there were no leftovers!  Heck, they didn't even wait long enough for me to snap a picture!




To satisfy your Mexican style cravings, the Old El Paso® line up of products includes chilies, dinner kits, dips and sides, enchilada sauce, refried beans, seasoning mixes, shells, taco sauce and salsa. The Old El Paso taco seasoning mix selection includes flavors like Burrito, Cheesy Taco, Chili, Fajita, Taco, Mild Taco and even a seasoning with 40% less sodium.

For a fun twist on taco night, be sure to try one of the delicious recipes below.


  • Easy Fish Tacos
    • Old El Paso® taco shells, seasoning mix and taco sauce and battered fish fillets make quick work out of Mexican fare.
  • Tarantula Tacos
    • Having a Halloween party? Gather the kids and make spook-tacular tacos.


And to keep your family laughing at the dinner table, have some fun with El Tacodor™, the world’s only family taco night game. With El Tacodor, your family can share a special night at home by challenging one another to quick fire trivia, wordplay and pantomime. Visit www.ElTacodor.com today to download instructions, a score card, and a challenge sheet for even more fun on family taco night!

We didn't get a chance to do this because Robyn had a tonne of homework last night that kept our family dinner time short and sweet - but that's the beauty of taco night - it doesn't take long at all to cook, eat or clean up, so even if you are eating and running, you can still make time to sit down as a family because the meal can be ready in no time flat!


Visit Old El Paso for news and great tips, recipes and more. Take a minute to share family fiesta photos and videos from family taco nights on the El Tacodor Family Spotlight!

In addition, you can visit http://www.myblogspark.com/uc/main/b069/to download a printable coupon for $0.60 off any two Old El Paso products today!


On top of all that, one lucky winner from the US is going to win a prize pack identical to the one I got:

A packet of Old El Paso Taco Seasoning, a Cactus Chip & Dip Serving dish, a set of 3 Fiesta Chili Pepper serving dishes and a $10 gift card to purchase your taco fixings. This giveaway will run until October 24th!

We like avocado. We don't yet have family taco night but it sounds like a fun idea.

My favorite taco toppings are rice and cheese. We don't have an official taco night, but we make a lot of tostadas here, which are very similar.
My favorite toppings are tomatoes and sour cream! We have taco night once every couple weeks!
