Don't tell the boys I did not use the packets I normally use. This will now be used to make Taco's. I like the fact that it was all natural. Ounce you try you will not go back.

    Love the fact that there`s no preservatives, no sugar, no msg, & no fuss. I did use hot paprika to give my seasoning a real nice kick! And used garlic powder and a touch of salt.

    Used smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. You definately need the salt to enhance the flavors. It still and a lot less sodium and no preservatives, so this is a very good substitute and simple to make with spices most everyone will have on hand.

    Nice and easy, and very tasty. So much better than store bought. I'll add cayenne when I want a hotter version. Thanks for posting it.

    Hello! I really enjoyed this recipe. I am so tired of everything being so salty that I am looking for homemade replacements to the old pre-packaged stuff. This is a winner that I will continue to use for all of my Mexican/taco concoctions!

    Right in the middle of making tacos I noticed I was out of the seasoning packets. This had great flavor and was simple to make. I will use this now instead of buying those pricy packets. Thank you.

    Not the first time I used this, but the first time I got around to reviewing it. This time, it was to make the ground beef for taco salad. I did replace the garlic salt with garlic powder (doctor's orders). This one's a winner with me!
