eating well does not mean spending a fortune

Taco Seasoning

This is so easy to make, and it keeps well too.  I use this seasoning not only on ground beef, but on beans as well.  I mix beans with the ground beef to make the meal “go a bit farther” and to save money (meat is SO expensive!).

Ingredients

6 Tb. Chili Powder

3 Tb. Cumin

1 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder

1 1/2 tsp. Onion Powder

3/4 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes

1 1/2 tsp. Oregano

1 Tb. Paprika

2 Tb. Salt

1 Tb. Black Pepper

Method

Place all the ingredients in a jar and SHAKE!

Use approximately 2 Tb. of seasoning per pound of meat.

Remaining seasoning can be kept in an airtight container in the pantry.
