Taco Seasoning Packet for the Frugal Home-Maker image

The original recipe came from an old "Make-A-Mix" cookbook years ago. I've customized to fit our tastebuds and pocketbook. My thought is: why buy those expensive, chemically flavored little packets when you have all the ingredients on the spice shelf in Mrs. Hubbard's Cupboard?

Categories     Mexican

Time 11m

Yield 1 foil packet, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons basil
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
3/4 cup water
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Tear off a 4-inch strip of aluminum foil, then tear the rectangle in half to have a roughly 4x4 square OR use a snack-size zipper bag.
  • Dump all spices & herbs in a small pile.
  • Fold foil edges up, pressing folds firmly to seal tightly.
  • Store in a cool dark container.
  • AT SERVING TIME: Sprinkle packet contents over browned hamburger, add water.
  • Simmer lightly, cover with lid to allow onions to re-plump.
  • After about 7 minutes, check if water has simmered off and if onions are plumped up. If not, add another tablespoon (or two), and continue plumping.
  • We prefer our taco/enchilada meat a bit juicy, but you may wish to remove the lid and let it dry before serving.
  • USES: tacos, taco salad, burrito, tostada, enchilada, Mexican lasagna.
