Printable Recipe
2 t. salt
2 T. chili powder
2 T. Smoked Paprika
2 T. flour
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. cumin
1/2 t. oregano
Mix together and store in a container. Use 2 Tablespoons to 1 cup of water for each pound of hamburger if you're doing tacos.
Holly's Note:
I haven't purchased regular taco seasoning since I found this recipe. I love that I can use more or less, depending on the recipe and our tastes. The key to this being the best taco seasoning ever is to use Smoked Paprika. Seriously. I get mine at Costco and it adds the most amazing depth.
Using a mason jar with the lid from a Parmesan cheese container makes it really easy to store and either spoon or shake into other recipes.
And as far as tripling or quadrupling to fill a mason jar. I just add all the ingredients three or four times each. I'm not a math person!

ReplyDeleteThank you! I am MSG sensitive and have been looking for a homemade taco seasoning, since I don't trust the packets anymore. Also love that I can control my own salt. Tacos here I come!
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect just to do that. I always put in less salt. I can't buy the packets any more either. I love being able to use more or less seasoning too. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteWill have to try this, thanks!

Going to use this! Thank you for sharing this post at City of Creative Dream's City of Links last Friday! I appreciate you taking the time to party with me. Hope to see you again this week :)
ReplyDeleteI love homemade seasoning mixes and this one looks perfect!! Thank you so much for linking up at Tasty Tuesday! Your recipe has been pinned to the Tasty Tuesday Pinterest board! Please join us again this week!
ReplyDeleteIt kind of bugs me when a recipe calls for 1 Tbsp taco seasoning and I'm left with a partial package. Homemade mixes make more sense not only for this, but I usually have all the separate ingredients anyway! I like your use of smoked paprika! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I love being able to use as much or as little as I want!
