Taco Seasoning Recipe

Dominic Jacobs

Report

This homemade taco seasoning is made in minutes, with spices you probably already have on hand, and tastes SO much better than the store-bought packets.

Notes

As a note to my readers outside of the United States, American chili powder is a blend of many spices, including cayenne pepper, but it isn’t all that spicy. Non-American chili powder can be straight up ground chile peppers and are MUCH spicier. For this recipe, make sure you’re using American chili powder, otherwise it will be insanely spicy.
Recipe makes approximately 5 Tbsp, which is equal to almost 1/3 cup.
Recipe can easily be doubled, tripled, or even halved for a smaller batch.
To use: Use around 2 1/2 Tbsp per pound of meat (so this recipe would make enough for 2 lbs of meat).
