Taco Seasoning

One day I was just beginning to start making tacos for dinner when I realized I used my last package of taco seasoning and I didn’t care to venture out in the snow. So, off to the internet I went and came across this recipe. I wasn’t sure how my tacos would turn out that night, but I figured we could always drown them in salsa. We sat down to eat and the first thing I hear is “Mom, what did you do to these tacos ?” I said “why, what’s wrong with them”? To which he replied, nothing’s wrong with them…they are better than usual. Guess who doesn’t buy the package mix anymore! I use this mixture of spices for any recipe that calls for Taco seasoning.
