This recipe has been going through constant revisions in my private recipe files for more than a year. It is now ready for its debut.

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine all the ingredients in a small container.
  2. 2
    Brown one pound of ground beef or turkey and drain fat away. (I prefer ground turkey. There is no fat to drain away and it crumbles into tiny pieces very easily.).
  3. 3
    Throw in seasoning mix and 3/4 cup of water and mix well with your ground meat.
  4. 4
    Simmer until thick --
  5. 5
    Note: combine your taco meat with about half of a can of refried beans for a delicious burrito or chimichanga filling.

A new favorite in our house! I made as directed, except left out the flour and added a squirt of ketchup since I was out of tomato paste as another reviewer suggested using. Thank you for the recipe.

    Very good. I used smoked paprika, a bit more cayenne and chili powder and added red pepper flakes. It would have been just fine as written but since I had the ability to personalize it I did. Good enough to lure a Latin Lover. ; )

    I used your taco seasoning recipe with great success last night. I added it to ground turkey and made layered taco salads. I liked this seasoning mix. It has a great mix of flavors, thickened well, and the tiny hint of heat was perfect for us. Thank you for sharing your recipe!

    This was great! I made soft tacos using this taco seasoning along with Freakin' Good Guacamole and Simple Mexican Rice. It all went very well together and I will use this seasoning again. Thanks! Made for ZWT5
