- 1 tbsp chili powder

- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tbsp fine sea salt
- 1/2 tbsp freshly cracked black pepper

Chef’s Note:
Most taco seasoning packets have 2-3 tablespoons of seasoning in them. To substitute this taco seasoning mix for a store bought packet, simply brown your ground meat, drain off any fat and sprinkle on 2-3 tablespoons of the homemade taco seasoning per pound of ground meat, mix to combine. If you like saucy taco meat, add 1/3 cup water and 1 tablespoon cornstarch to the ground beef along with the taco seasoning.
