The Humbled Homemaker: Homemade Homemaking: Taco Seasoning

Welcome to this month's edition of Homemade Homemaking. This month's homemade recipe is taco seasoning.

Making your own taco seasoning is super easy and will save you money (not to mention exposure from additives like MSG and other preservatives in packaged seasonings!).

I started making my own a few years ago when I was making tacos and suddenly realized I had run out of seasoning. I googled a recipe and couldn't believe how easy it was!

I tweaked the recipe just a tad, and I've been using this one ever since.

Without further ado, here's an easy-peasy recipe for taco seasoning:

2 tsp. chili powder

1 1/2 tsp. paprika

1 1/2 tsp. cumin

1 tsp. onion powder

3/4 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. sea salt

dash cayenne

Combine all ingredients. Use instead of 1 package of taco seasoning mix. Makes 3 tablespoons.

And in case you're a visual learner, I created a YouTube account this week to help you out:
