55 Reviews of Taco Bell Taco Seasoning Clone/Copycat

From: Jenn

On Dec 20, 2004

This recipe was good, but I found that it needed more chili pwdr and cumin than the recipe called for because it was a little bland for my taste. Thanks for posting Jenn

    I thought this recipe was absolutely perfect as it is. It tasted just like the Taco Bell brand, and that is the kind I always buy, and now I'll just make it at home, thanks for putting this recipe on the site!

    Great seasoning. I used this to prepare Crockpot Chicken Taco Meat (Crock Pot Chicken Taco Meat). It worked perfectly and had excellent flavor. This will be repeated in our home.

    I thought this had a good level of seasoning — I used it in a Taco Soup recipe, and it was just perfect for that. Great money-saver, and saved me a trip to the store, thanks!

    I like the Taco Brand seasoning packets because it is a milder seasoning than some others. This recipe worked well & thickened like it is supposed too. I did up the amounts cumin & chili powder as suggested by another reviewer and will probably add just a touch more when I use it again. Thank you for posting this recipe!

    this was just really great!!! i used this as a seasoning for some leftover 4th of July pork,and it sure beats anything you could ever get at Taco Bell.it has just enough heat without being to overly spicy.this will be a repeat at our home.thank you so much for posting.

    5 stars for sure....the flavors blended perfectly and I like the "thickness" that the cornstarch and flour add - really adheres to the meat so that you get flavor in every bite.

    Worked great! I subbed the onion flakes for a tsp of onion powder, and added a 1/2 tsp of chipotle chili powder for a bit more flavour. Cheers.

    Very good! We don't usually eat tacos much- but that will change now that we've tried this. I've already made up a canister full to keep handy. Looks like I'll need 5 tablespoons of the mix per pound of ground beef (I use half ground beef and half ground turkey). Thanks for the great mix!
