HOMEMADE IS ALWAYS BETTER
Never buy store-bought again.
I used to buy store-bought packaged taco seasoning until I realised there were a bunch of ingredients in there I didn’t want or need.
Manufacturers add in ingredients Lik grains to prevent clumping, flavor enhancers and sugar to get you addicted. Thanks but no thanks.
Once I realised how easy it was to make my own, I was converted.
I’m a control freak, and love that I can control the spice level and intensity of flavors to my liking.
This is my base flavor but feel free to play around with it and make it yours.
If you make Mexican cuisine a lot (like me!) double or triple the ingredients and store in an airtight container.
