I don’t want to make the chili seasoning just for this recipe. What substitute can I use for the chili seasoning? Thank you!
You can use store-bought chili seasoning! It should be in the spice aisle of the grocery store.
you can also bake them in the oven 425 until golden. score the roll first, bake. even from frozen….my families fave!
Thanks for sharing!
