I have this great recipe for homemade taco seasoning, and it is so easy. It tastes great, and you control what goes into it. I have been using it for years, so I never buy the packets anymore. You can make this for just a few cents, and you probably have everything in your cabinets.
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Red Pepper (optional)
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Mix all ingredients. Sprinkle mix on cooked hamburger and add 1/2 cup water. You can also add 2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste at this point if you want more tomato flavor. I usually leave out the red pepper, since the kids don't like spicy things. This only takes a couple of minutes, and tastes great. I put shredded carrots and diced boiled potatoes in my taco meat to give it more heft and also to sneak in some veggies. Have fun with this.
