Homemade Taco Seasoning Recipe
Serious Mealtimes / Amanda Suarez
While I don’t do Taco Tuesdays every week making a homemade taco is a good option every now and then especially when I need a filling meal in a hurry. It was a trick my mom used to pull off every now and then: she’d toss a packet of taco seasoning into some ground beef and serve it with toppings like hard and soft taco shells diced tomatoes lettuce sour cream cilantro avocado and shredded cheese. It was a dinner that didn’t require much planning or forethought but was satisfying nonetheless.

It combines chili peppers warm spices and more to create a seasoning blend for ground beef and other meats and proteins that’s nearly synonymous with the old advertising slogan “Pass the Old El Paso.”
