The Best Taco Seasoning Ever!

Say goodbye to store bought taco mixes! This is my go to taco seasoning, and I am never going back to anything else ever again! It's got the perfect punch of spice from the chili powder and red pepper flakes. You get a hint of smokiness from the smoked paprika, and a touch of citrus from lemon peel.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
  • 2 Tbsp Smoked Paprika
  • 2 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1/2 tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Peel
  • 1/2 tsp Parsley

Method
 

  1. In a small mason jar or container, add all the spices together. Seal with a lid and shake it like crazy to evenly combine. That's it! Alternatively, you can mix all the spices into a jar with a spoon.
  2. Store up to one year. However, I guarantee it will not last that long! Use 2 1/2 tablespoons of spice mix to one pound of meat.
