Taco Seasoning
If you’re like me the letters MSG turn you off. I was thrown for a loop when I noticed my store-bought taco seasoning had MSG (aka Monosodium glutamate) and silicon dioxide in it*. So I set about stirring up my own taco seasoning.
Why have extra sodium in your seasonings and condiments? Here’s my recipe:
* 2 teaspoons chili powder
* 4 teaspoons ground cumin
* 2 teaspoons ground oregano
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 1 teaspoon dried red pepper
* 2 teaspoon dried minced onion (or onion powder)
* 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
I use this much like I would the ready-made seasoning mix. Also works nicely sprinkled over a cheeseburger or coldcut sandwich.
*Care to guess which brand of seasoning I’m referring to?
Hint: if you fast-food tacos, you’ve probably had it.
