Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 tsp chili powder
4 1/2 tsp cumin
2 1/2 tsp garlic powder
5 tsp paprika
3 tsp onion powder

Steps:

  • 1. Stir everything together and store in a jar or plastic container. 7 teaspoons of this mixture equals 1.25oz. pkg. of taco seasoning. So, this makes 3 of those packages. I have also purchased those little zip lock bags and put 7teaspoons of this concoction in each of them so I just need to reach for a bag instead of count out 7 teaspoons each time. Then when you're making the taco meat, the water a normal package of seasoning calls for can actually be added to your seasonings right in the bag and then poured out on your hamburger. Less mess!
