Homeade Taco seasoning mix

Mix 1/4 cup salt free chili powder ( I just used regular chili powder and it had a little salt in it)
1 Tbsp each of dried oregano and ground cumin
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
store in an airtight jar

For taco's and Chili: Use 2 1/2 Tbsp per lb. of ground beef or turkey
*When I add the seasoning to the meat I also add 1/2-1 cup water and let it cook on high until most of the liquid is absorbed.

As a rub or for fajitas: use 1 tbsp per lb of steak, chicken or pork


Recipe #2
Ingredients:
4 tbsp. chili powder
3 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. paprika
3 tbsp. ground cumin
1 tbsp. plus 2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. cayenne pepper

Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and mix well to blend. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.

To prepare taco meat, use 2 heaping tablespoons in place of a package of taco seasoning (cook approximately 1 lb. of beef or chicken, add 1 cup of water with the seasoning, and simmer until the liquid is almost completely gone.)
