HOMEMADE TACO SEASONING MIX
Much lower salt than pre-made. Salt can be omitted. Great with half ground buffalo and half ground turkey breast or whatever you prefer. Buy bulk spices and you can make 5-plus batches for under $1.00!! Increasing black pepper and adding optional ingredients will increase heat. Using mild or regular chili powder and omitting optional ingredients will reduce heat. To keep salt content low make sure chili powder does not contain salt.

Steps:
- Heat oven for taco shells. Start browning meat. Mix taco seasoning dry ingredients. While meat is browning, grate cheese and chop tomatoes; prep lettuce; get out condiments that you want to use. Watch for meat to get about 1/2 browned. When meat is partially browned add taco seasoning mix and continue until fully browned. After browned completely, add 1/2 to 1 cup water and the 2 tbsp tomato paste and cook down on low to blend flavors. It is about now that you would put your taco shells into a preheated oven. The cook times vary: 3 - 9 minutes depending on brand. Finish prepping condiments and toppings while meat mixture simmers down to almost no liquid but is still moist. Used it with 1 lb ground lean beef, corn taco shells, cheese, salsa, avocados, tomatoes. May serve with sour cream..
EASY TACO SEASONING MIX
This is the spice mix from a taco recipe that I got from Redbook's Wise Woman's Diet Cookbook. Whenever I have a recipe that calls for a package of taco seasoning mix, this is what I use. The great thing about it is that it has no MSG or preservatives. *Update* This recipe is equal to one packet of taco seasoning mix -- enough to season one pound of ground meat.

KITTENCAL'S TACO SEASONING MIX
After experimenting with many different spice combinations over the years for me this is the closest to the store-bought package taco seasoning --- I always increase this recipe 10x and keep in a glass jar tightly covered in my fridge to have ready for recipes, if you like lots of heat then adjust the cayenne pepper to taste or you may omit completely, if you can find some dried granulated tomato powder then add about 1-2 teaspoons with the mix, I purchase mine at a bulk spice store it really gives the seasoning a lift, the amounts stated are equivalent to one package taco seasoning mix -- don't save this mix to use only for tacos, add some in your recipes to kick up the flavor, it's even great in chili, ground beef mixture for casseroles, stew, soups, and add some into you hamburger mixture for burgers, I even add this to my Parmesan meatballs --- this also makes a great gift for the cook on your list just increase amounts and present in a fancy glass jar.

- Store tighty sealed in a small glass jar until ready to use (I store mine and all spices in the refrigerator).
- **NOTE** this is only optional, if using the mix for tacos you might want to add in some flour into the seasoned cooked ground beef to thicken, I also add in about 1-1/2 cups tomato sauce and simmer, stirring for 20 minutes over low heat.

Steps:
- Combine all the ingredients in a small container.

- Throw in seasoning mix and 3/4 cup of water and mix well with your ground meat.
- Simmer until thick --
- Note: combine your taco meat with about half of a can of refried beans for a delicious burrito or chimichanga filling.

From 500 Low Sodium Recipes by Dick Logue. I haven't tried this one yet, but Dick Logue has some other really good salt-free seasoning recipes, so I'm posting this for future use. (The book says it makes 6 servings of 1/2 tsp. each. In practical terms, that works out to about 3 tbsp. per pound of ground beef.)

MY MASTER MIX TACO SEASONING
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....

CHICKEN TACO SEASONING MIX, SCD COMPLIANT
We had a favorite seasoning from Penzeys, called Arizona Dreaming, that was great for seasoning chicken for chicken tacos, or sprinkling onto any Mexican or Southwest style dish.

Steps:
- 1. Mix together & store in an airtight glass container. Great on grilled chicken, left over rotisserie chicken, shredded chicken, or ground chicken/turkey, or even black beans, for tacos. Use as much as tastes right. Add salt to taste, if desired. Also great sprinkled on just about any Mexican style dish that needs a bit of zing. Guacamole, in a burrito, or quesadilla, etc.
- 2. Note: Citric Acid is the type of acid in citrus fruit, that comes in little crystals like salt. It is sometimes called sour salt, because it looks like salt, though it contains no salt. It is one way to increase flavor without adding salt, if you are on a low sodium diet. You can buy it easily online, or sometimes locally. It makes this spice mix a convenient time saver. But you can always squeeze fresh lime juice into whatever you are making, instead, if you don't mind the extra liquid.
