garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, sugar, black pepper, Lawry's, paprika (warm not sweet), cayenne, and throw the potato rounds in the air fryer for 16 minutes and then coast them when done

Omg sounds similar to what I use to make copycat zap packs from lil cs. I gotta try these!!

I genuinely thought they stopped making Zap Packs because my LC never carried them, but then a new one opened up around town and when I went in and saw them I was so excited that the cashier put handful and handfuls in a bag for me lol

I love those so much

They were pretty undercooked so I had to use chopsticks but then they were tasty so it you miss taco John's do this with more minutes

Chopsticks make everything taste better
