RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

2 Tbsp Red chili powder

1 tsp Garlic powder

1 tsp Onion powder

½ tsp Red pepper flakes

½ tsp Oregano (dried)

1 tsp Paprika

3 tsp Cumin

2 tsp Coarse salt

1 tsp Freshly ground black pepper

Mix all ingredients, and store in an airtight container or bag.

Use as much as you like to season ground meat or veggie crumbles for tacos. I generally use a 2-3 tablespoons per pound.

I made Mexican meat salad for supper - which calls for a taco seasoning packet. The combination of flavors in this recipe was perfect! The only thing I did differently was adding about a tablespoon of flour to the cooking meat. I find that the store-bought seasoning creates a thicker, saucier meat mixture. The addition of the flour added the missing thickness and then nobody could tell that I didn't use a store bought packet!
