An uncle of mine came to visit a few days ago and heard my cooking was all the rave, so he was excited to try some of my food. The problem was, I hadn't planned on cooking anything. Oh my, now what to make? I asked my dear husband for a suggestion and he said tacos. This is no surprise because he loves tacos and it is almost always his suggestion. We hadn't had them in a while, they sounded good, and of course tacos are easy to make, so I thought, sure! Then I remembered my uncle was eagerly awaiting my cooking and I thought, how can I possibly serve this man something from a packet?!?! Homemade taco seasoning was something I had wanted to try before, but never did, so I thought, what the heck! I'll give it a whirl! I quickly began searching on my new favorite app- yummly and found a recipe. Then I did what I almost always do, adapted it to what I have in the house, what I feel like or who will be eating. In this case it was a little bit of I am missing this and my mom and grams don't like spicy. Haha. So, here is what I came up with:
Homemade Taco Seasoning
Ingredients:
1 tsp salt
2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/8 tsp ground ginger
Directions:
Mix all ingredients in a small bowl
Store in an air tight container until ready to use
ENJOY!
Hope you enjoy your tacos! I know we did :)
