Taco Seasoning Mix

  • 4

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons cumin, or to taste. (I used just 1 tablespoon.)
  • 2 teaspoons oregano
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, if you like it spicy
  • 1 teaspoon salt, adjust for your taste. The salt helps to keep it fresh when storing.

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all spices together and store in an airtight container for 6 months to a year.

To make tacos, brown 1 pound of ground meat. Drain. Mix in 7 teaspoons (or 2 tablespoons and 1 teaspoon). Add 3/4 cup water and stir to blend. Cook until water has evaporated.
