This easy, gluten-free, taco seasoning is delicious with ground beef, ground turkey or on fish tacos.
We love tacos! We eat tacos every week and rotate our tacos between fish tacos, beef, chicken, chorizo.
I typically make our chicken tacos with salsa in a crock pot, but I cook our beef taco meat or fish tacos on the stove with taco seasoning.
Our local store doesn’t carry gluten-free taco seasoning, so I either order it online or make our own from scratch.
We eat tacos at least twice a month, and sometimes monthly.
Tacos are one of those meals that you can set out all the toppings and people can make their tacos the way they like. It’s also a meal that I tend to make when guests are coming over.
Who doesn’t like tacos? On occasion there will be someone who doesn’t. I also make sure I have chips, or extra lettuce on hand in case they want to make a taco salad or a plate of nachos.
I love that I can double up on the batch of taco meat to either feed a crowd or freeze for later. My husband and I leave some taco meat in the fridge for leftovers, then we freeze weighed proportions for busy nights where we can reheat and serve.
This taco seasoning recipe will take you less than 5 minutes to make. You can use it just like you would use the taco seasoning packets from the store.
You will know exactly what you are putting into your tacos and you don’t have to worry about additives or cross contamination. This recipe will yield the equivalent of 3 store-bought packages.
My friend Maya from Wholesome Yum has a fantastic Healthy Taco Salad Recipe that would be a perfect use for this seasoning. She incorporates lots of fresh veggies and taco meat, making it the ideal salad. Enjoy!
