Instructions

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients. Store in an airtight container.

To Prepare Taco Meat

  1. Fry up 1 lb of lean ground beef until browned and cooked throughout. Drain the fat and mix in 2 tbsp of the taco seasoning mix. If you added cornstarch, add in 1/4 cup of water to the mix. Cook until the taco seasoning is all mixed throughout the beef and thickened up.
  2. Remove from the stove and place in a bowl. Use for tacos and wraps.

Notes

  • You can use smoked paprika in this recipe for a lovely smoky flavor.
  • To make the amount shown in the jar, quadruple the recipe! We make a LOT of tacos so Ivy made four times the recipe- and that was also some GREAT math skills practice for her as well!
