Taco Seasoning Mix

Taco Seasoning Mix is so easy to make, no need to buy processed taco seasoning in the store .. ever again!

We love tacos, especially my 9 year old.  What I don’t like so much is prepackaged foods like the Taco Seasoning that you buy in the store which contain chemicals to keep them fresh.  So I set out to make my own and experimented with some different spices and blends until I got it right.  This is delicious and makes just enough for one batch of tacos (ground beef 1 – 1 1/2 lbs).  It’s easy enough to make and you could double, triple the recipe and store in an airtight container to use later.
