I thought I could find the taco seasoning, it has vanished from the sites that I expected to find it.
Will this work?

Recipe: Fajita Seasoning

This recipe for Fajita Seasoning was given to me from a friend a number of years ago… I don’t know the original source …It’s easy and much cheaper to make the seasoning this way then buying those seasoning packs…. Mix this recipe up and store in a jar… 2 tablespoons equals a seasoning pack you would buy.

Enjoy!

This recipe for Taco Seasoning is very close to the packaged kind you can find in the grocery store.

Tacos have become an American standard meal…. Kids, as well as, adults scarf them down… most cooks use packaged taco seasoning… I did too… until I realized I could do better by making my own seasoning…. By making my own seasoning, I could eliminate the MSG and control the amount of salt in my tacos. I also liked the idea of controlling the heat too.

TIPS

It’s super easy to make up…. use 3 tablespoons for every pound of ground beef you use… if using with ground turkey or chicken… you may want to add more since turkey and chicken are bland…

The recipe makes a little more than 3 tablespoons... I would recommend you triple the recipe and save the leftovers for the next time... just store in a Ziploc bag... this way you’re good to go at a moments notice!

The great thing about making your own seasoning mix… season to your taste… use more seasoning if that is what suits your taste.

If you like your tacos with a kick… add crushed red pepper flakes… start with a ¼ teaspoon and taste… add more to adjust to taste as necessary.

I also included in the picture below... 2 kinds of McCormick Chili Powder... one is the regular chili powder the other is the Mexican Hot Chili Powder... you may want to use some of both or just one or the other.
