I've been using the following recipe for almost a year now. Have you ever wanted to whip up a quick batch of Taco Soup or needed Taco Seasoning for something but didn't have it in the house? I was on a big Salsa Chicken kick last year - and found that I'd start to make it only to find I didn't have one of those precious Old El Paso seasoning packets in the house. Well, instead of making a trip to the grocery store just for some taco seasoning, you can pretty much just open up your spice cabinet and make your own. The following recipe equates to 1 package of taco seasoning: (and to be all legal and all, I grabbed it off Cooks.com by clicking HERE)
TACO SEASONING MIX
1 tbsp. chili powder
2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. ground oregano
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
Mix all ingredients together. Makes 3 tablespoon seasoning mix. Equivalent to a 1 1/4 ounce package of commercial taco seasoning.
If you use taco seasoning a lot, I suggest getting a container at BJ's. I think it's like 6 bucks. I was going to grab one a few weeks ago but my BJ's didn't have it in stock. I checked again last week, and again, not in stock. Boo.
