Taco Seasoning

Posted by Solitary Dancer on March 15, 2006

Here’s the seasoning for tacos that I make. I just keep it in an old spice jar and use as needed. I’m sure you can substitute commercial brands but doing it this way, you know exactly what’s in it.

SEASONING FOR TACOS

2 tablespoons chili powder
5 teaspoons paprika
4 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne

Mix very well and store in a small jar. Makes 24 teaspoons.

I have tried this and it is very tasty!

    The carbs are minimal, at best. To get you started on learning about the amount of carbs in foods and ingredients for recipes, I suggest Fit Day. http://www.fitday.com This site requires registration but you account is free. It’s a great way to see the nutritional analysis of what you are eating.

    I hope this helps,
