My Master Mix Taco Seasoning image

I have 2 recipes for homemade taco seasoning. I call this one my Master Mix because this is the one I use the most and usually make a large batch of it. My family loves Mexican and Tex-Mex.....but they don't like it spicy. This recipe uses flour as a filler that makes it thicker, less spicy, and closer to the commercial brands....
