Taco Seasoning

This turned out to be one of the easiest and healthiest things I could do for my family.  I'm not sure if you have ever looked at the ingredients on a pre-packaged envelope of taco seasoning but it's pretty scary.  The stuff they put in there to make it last can't be good for you and the sodium is huge.

Here is an easy way to not only save money but do something really good for your body.  Okay, I'm off my soap box now.

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp chili powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper

If you like it spicy, add 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Measure it all out and put it in a mason jar.  Give it a good shake and you now have delicious taco seasoning.  I like to make a lot at once.  The picture below shows what it looks like with 8 times the ingredients.  It sounds like a lot but it really isn't and it goes fast.  :-)
