Description

A quick and easy way to cut out unnecessary preservatives: homemade taco/chili seasoning!

Ingredients

  • 6 teaspoons Chili Powder
  • 5 teaspoons Paprika
  • 4-½ teaspoons Cumin
  • 2-½ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 3 teaspoons Dried Onion
  • 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
  • ¼ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper (or More To Taste)

Preparation

Combine ingredients in a bowl. Store in an airtight container in your pantry with your other spices.

To use: Use 3 tablespoons of seasoning for each pound of meat in tacos or chili. For taco meat, add 3 tablespoons of seasoning and 3/4 cup of water to 1 pound of cooked meat and simmer until water has evaporated.

Note: This makes a relatively mild mix. For a spicier seasoning mix, add more cayenne pepper.

Love this recipe! It’s hard to find packaged seasoning that doesn’t contain MSG so I went looking for a way to make my own. I use this seasoning in several recipes and have never been disappointed.
