Note:
- It’s important to follow these instructions and use certified gluten products to ensure that your Loaded Cheesy Pocket Tacos are safe for anyone with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:
Taco Seasoning:
Use only gluten-free, certified-free packets of taco seasoning. Spices devoid of gluten, like chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and a small amount of cayenne pepper, can be used to make your blend.
Choose gluten-free tortillas made from corn or other grains instead of regular ones. You can readily find these in supermarkets. Even better, you can create your own with rice flour or cornmeal, two gluten-free flours.
Salsa: Verify again that the salsa you select is gluten-free by looking at its ingredients. Certain store-bought salsas could have thickeners or other additives that cause gluten intolerance. An even better option is to make salsa at home using gluten-free ingredients.
