Simple homemade taco seasoning



Homemade taco seasoning is so easy and very customizable. I have been making my own for years. I also love that I know exactly what ingredients go in it. If you double the recipe and make a big jar it will last you a while as well.

I originally got this recipe from another blog, but that blog no longer exists. I have modified it over the years. Here is my version. 

Homemade Taco Seasoning

1/4 cup minced onions
1/4 cup sea salt
1/4 cup arrowroot powder
3 Tb ground cumin seed
2 Tb granulated garlic (not garlic salt, just the garlic)
1 Tb chipotle chili powder
1 Tb smoked paprika (this is one of my most favorite spices ever!)
1 Tb dried oregano
1 Tb cocoa powder
1 tsp ground black pepper

Mix all ingredients in a glass jar. When making taco meat add one heaping tablespoon of taco seasoning mix with 3/4 cup of water. Add to cooked meat and simmer until most of the water has steamed off. 

You can also make this into a fantastic dressing.
