Homemade Taco Seasoning
Homemade Taco Seasoning made in 5 minutes with pantry spices. Bold, fresh, and customizable—better than store-bought and so easy!
Servings: 3 tbsp
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ½ tablespoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Add all of the spices to a small bowl.
- Stir well until everything is evenly combined.
- Use immediately in your favorite taco recipes, or transfer to a storage container for later.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
- This seasoning mix equals about 3 tablespoons total. I usually use about 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning for 1 pound of ground beef or turkey.
- Prefer it milder? Reduce or skip the cayenne and red pepper flakes.
- Want it smoky? Try swapping regular paprika for smoked paprika.
