Homemade Taco Seasoning

 Homemade Taco Seasoning 

     I realized about 8 years ago when I needed to start eating gluten free that most store bought taco seasoning had wheat in it as a thickener. I started experimenting with making my own and never turned back! My husband's favorite food is ground beef tacos so I make them at least once a week for him. This recipe is for a pound of ground beef, but if you would like to quadruple the recipe it stores well in a mason jar, you can then just shake it before use to mix the spices and add what you need. 

Homemade Taco Seasoning

( for one pound of ground meat)

Ingredients

1 TBSP chili powder

1 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp parsley

1/4 tsp paprika

Directions

1) Measure all of the spices into a small container and mix well.

2) Brown your choice of meat.

3) Once the meat is browned and cooked through, add the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water in the skillet, reduce the heat and simmer until most of the water evaporates.

Enjoy!
