Taco Seasoning

Bookmark and Share

If you’re like me the letters MSG turn you off. I was thrown for a loop when I noticed my store-bought taco seasoning had MSG (aka Monosodium glutamate) and silicon dioxide in it*. So I set about stirring up my own taco seasoning.

Why have extra sodium in your seasonings and condiments? Here’s my recipe:

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 4 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground oregano
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried red pepper
  • 2 teaspoon dried minced onion (or onion powder)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

I use this much like I would the ready-made seasoning mix. Also works nicely sprinkled over a cheeseburger or coldcut sandwich.

*Care to guess which brand of seasoning I’m referring to?
Hint: if you fast-food tacos, you’ve probably had it.
