Taco Seasoning

Homemade taco seasoning is easy-peasy! It has indredients that I can pronounce, and it takes no time at all. You can adjust the hotness to your taste. A half teaspoon of red pepper flakes is a little hot for me, but Hubby likes it. I may tweak that next time. Enjoy!


Taco Seasoning


2 tsp instant minced onion
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp instant minced garlic
1/2 tsp ground cumin

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. Add to ground beef with 1/2 cup water, stir, cover & allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
