Taco Seasoning - Great Texmex Seasoning for Tacos, Burritos Etc.
By: mama's kitchen
Try this seasoning instead of using the packets of taco seasoning. Makes a great gift too! This not only saves you money it tastes better too! You control the amounts- feel free to adjust to fit your taste. If you like it hotter you can add some cayenne or up the chili powder! Enjoy!
28 Teapoons
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons oregano, preferably Mexican oregano
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons onion flakes or onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, omit if you like it mild and increase if you like it spicier
- 1 teaspoon salt, adjust for your taste the salt helps to keep it fresh when storing
Directions
1
Mix all spices together.2
Store in airtight container. Will keep for 6 months to a year.3
7 teaspoons of this spice mix is the equivalent of one 1.25 oz packet of store bought taco seasoning. This recipe makes the equivalent of 4 spice packets.4
To make tacos- mix 7 tsp (or 2 T and 1 t) to 1 lb ground meat that has been browned and drained of fat. Add 3/4 cup water and stir to blend. Cook til water has evaporated.

Pretty good! I think this is a great recipe to use as a base, and then to tweak according to your taste.

This was pretty good. I think next time I will use more than 7 tsps. I just thought the meat was a little bland... that's just me though. The actual mix is pretty good! Made for ZWT 4.

This is great-- easy to make with ingredients we normally have in the cupboard. I used about 35 grams of this mixture (same amount that comes in the prepared packets) to cook up just over a pound of ground meat. Thanks!
