Taco or Fajita Seasoning
Like many, we used to buy seasoning for tacos and fajitas, but once I read the package and all that companies add, I decided to make my own. I combined a few recipes to get the one below. First the basics, then a little kick, and finally the addition for tacos.
Basic
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For a bit of a kick add:
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
For tacos, I also add:
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
I do the same thing and make my own. No preservatives or additives and I think it tastes better!
I agree completely. I’m to the point where I do not like a lot of packaged anythings, because they just aren’t as good as what I can do easily on my own. They have a time and a place, but usually, I just say no.
