It will save you at least a dollar or so over the price of name brand. Here's the recipe: Ingredients 2 tsp. chili powder 1 tsp. paprika 1 1/2 tsp. cumin 2 tsp. parsley flakes 1 tsp. onion powder 1/2 tsp. garlic salt or garlic powder 1/2 tsp. oregano Directions Put all ingredients in small container with lid and shake until combined. Add to 1 pound of browned ground beef. Add 3/4 cup water and bring to a simmer. Let meat cook down until juice is mostly cooked up in meat. Serve with whatever recipe taco meat is called for.

I suppose if you make tacos a lot then making yourself could be worth it; however I really like the McCormick taco seasoning packet and I can get on sale. I'd just as soon buy that then spend my time making it. I was very interested in the Taco Bell seasoning recipe tho as I love the way their taco meat tastes! By Debbie52 Report Spam or Abuse
