TACO SEASONING BLEND

Taco seasoning is a huge flavor booster for seasoning ground meats, veggies and seafood for tacos, burritos and fajitas. Ideal in chili, soups, grilled chicken, kabobs and a brilliant sprinkle on scrambled eggs! 
Taco night just got a whole lot better thanks to you blending your own homemade taco seasoning. You most likely have all of these spices on hand, which makes this seasoning so simple to put together. It's perfect on anything taco-ish, in pasta dishes, veggies, any protein,  and most recipes calling for the use of  chili powder. 
Customizable as well—Don't love the cumin? Take it down a bit! Want it spicer? Add some cayenne to feel the burn. Lastly, you know exactly what goes into it, no additives and preservatives, just spice!
