I brought Barb's firecrackers recipe to my niece's Fourth of July party. I wanted something portable, simple to make, and of course, really tasty! I love Mexican food, so this recipe, inspired by South of the border food, yet created in New England, was my go-to. Adjust the heat with hotter or milder taco seasoning.
