Taco Seasoning

Flavorful! Made from pantry ingredients–this is awesome to keep on hand.

Yield: About 5 Tablespoons (Enough to season 2 batches of tacos containing 1 pound of ground beef)

  • 3 Tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 Tablespoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion flakes or onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
  1. COMBINE all ingredients
  2. STORE in closed container.
  3. USE 2 -1/2 Tablespoons per batch of 1 lb. ground beef tacos (season to taste)

Recipe Notes:

  • The key is using a 3 to 1 ratio of chili powder to cumin and some salt. The other ingredients are a bonus. If you run out of mix or need to mix up some in a hurry, add 1 Tablespoon of chili powder to 1 teaspoon of cumin and some salt and you’re good to go!
