Homemade Taco Seasoning
Report
Make your own taco seasoning at home to use on chicken or ground beef tacos, in taco soup or taco spaghetti. It's easy to triple the recipe and store it in a mason jar in the pantry until ready to use. This recipe is mild, gluten free, preservative free and Whole 30 compliant!

Instructions
- Combine all of the spices together in a small bowl or mason jar.
- Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
Notes
- For every 1 pound of meat, you’ll want to use 2 tablespoons taco seasoning. A typical packet of taco seasoning found at the grocery store contains 1 ounce of taco seasoning. This is equivalent to 2 tablespoons of homemade seasoning.
- This taco seasoning is mild, but if you want a seasoning that’s on the spicier side, simply add more cayenne pepper to taste. This recipe calls for 1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper, you can double or triple this for a spicy taco seasoning.
- This recipe makes 7 tablespoons of taco seasoning mix. If you’d like to make a double batch of the seasoning, simply click on the 2X button above. The ingredient amounts will automatically update to accommodate the new serving size.
- The taco seasoning will stay good, stored in an airtight container in the pantry, for up to 6 months. After that the spice blend will not “go bad” but as spices sit longer, they begin to lose their flavor.
- I recommend storing the seasoning mix in an 8 ounce mason jar. Label the taco seasoning with a date and use the seasoning mix within 6 months.
