Ground beef tacos and taco salads are nicely enhanced by the mixture that Sue Gronholz uses in place of store-bought taco seasoning. It's so easy to mix up a batch and keep it in the pantry, writes the Beaver Dam, Wisconsin cook. It's convenient and saves money, too. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons chili powder |
5 teaspoons paprika |
4-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin |
3 teaspoons onion powder |
3 teaspoons salt |
2-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
additional ingredients: |
1 pound ground turkey or beef |
2/3 to 3/4 cup water |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 6 months. Yield: 3 batches (about 1/2 cup total). 2. To prepare taco meat: In a saucepan, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add water and 8 teaspoons seasoning mix. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Yield: 4 servings per batch. |
