I’m here to tell you that making this homemade taco seasoning recipe is almost as easy as opening a packet of the store bought mix!
One of my favorite things about this recipe, besides the simplicity of it, is that it only has six ingredients! And they’re ingredients that are readily available at any “average” store. (I don’t know about you but I don’t have the time to go to a specialty store just to be able to make taco seasoning.)
Whether you’re making chili, tacos, enchiladas or any of your other favorite Mexican dishes (I’ve shared a few of my favorites below), I have no doubt that this taco seasoning mix will pair perfectly with it. Not only is it a healthier option but it is much cheaper than the pre-made pouch.

I used fresh onion (1/4) and one clove of garlic. This is the recipe I ve been searching for! Delicious! And the salt was JUST RIGHT! But a good rule of thumb is the put in less and add more as needed if you are not a saltaholic!
