The cumin is definitely the main ingredient here. If you'd like to take it up a notch, learn how to make roasted cumin powder to really make this seasoning from scratch!
Instructions
To make this seasoning, all you have to do is place everything in a container or bowl, and mix together.
That's it! Now you have a taco seasoning that you can use your entire round of Whole30!
Variations
- Garlicky-make this extra garlicky by adding in more garlic powder! You can use flakes as well.
- Spicy-add more chipotle powder if you want it hotter.
Storage
If you won't be using this right away, store this in an airtight container in a cool, dark area.
You can use an old, empty spice container for convenience.
However, I typically just make one batch and put it right in the ground meat as it cooks!
Uses
So many possibilities for this seasoning! The obvious way to use this paleo taco seasoning is to season taco meat. Typically ground beef is used. However, you can use ground chicken or turkey also!
You can also use it for fajitas. Season your meat with this homemade taco seasoning before cooking.
Use it to season tomato sauce to cook enchiladas, or to spoon onto tacos or fajitas for a sauce.
Serving Size
This recipe is good for 1 or 1.5 pounds of ground meat. You could triple or quadruple it if you want to make a larger batch of it to grab for cooking.
If you make a large batch, you'd technically measure out 1 tablespoon plus 2-¾ teaspoons of seasoning per pound of ground meat. However if you want to round up to make it easier, measure out 2 tablespoons per 1-1.5 pounds of ground beef.
