Homemade Taco Seasoning Mix

Skip the packets with fillers or additives and high salt levels and blend your own. This spice blend works great with beef or turkey taco filling and many recipes beyond tacos. Use it for chicken, in chili or with eggs. Use 1 ½ tablespoons (4 ½ teaspoons) per pound of ground meat.
