Ingredients

For the Taco Seasoning Mix

3 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano (crushed)
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

To Make Tacos

1 pound ground beef (or your choice of protein)
1 finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped canned green chilies
½ head shredded lettuce
4 plum tomatoes (chopped)
1 green onion (finely chopped)
1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup salsa
½ cup sour cream
6 taco shells (soft or hard, your choice!)

Instructions

Mix It Up: In a plastic zip-type bag, combine all the seasoning ingredients. Seal the bag and shake until completely mixed. This will make about ½ cup of taco seasoning mix.

💡 Store any leftover seasoning mix in an airtight container for future taco nights! It’s great for quick meals or adding flavor to soups and stews.
Cook the Meat: In a skillet, brown 1 pound of ground beef with one finely chopped onion and 2 tablespoons of chopped green chilies.

👨‍🍳 For a healthier twist, try ground turkey or a plant-based meat alternative!
Season It: Once the meat is fully cooked (about 10 minutes), drain off excess fat and stir in about ½ cup of the taco seasoning mix.

🔥 Feel free to adjust the amount of seasoning based on your spice preference!
Assemble Tacos: Divide ½ head of shredded lettuce among the 6 taco shells. Fill each shell with the seasoned meat mixture, chopped tomatoes, green onion, shredded cheddar cheese, and top with salsa and sour cream.

🧄 Want more variety? Add some avocado or guacamole for extra creaminess!

Tips & Variations

Vegetarian/Vegan Option: Substitute the ground beef with black beans, lentils, or a meat substitute. Just adjust cooking times accordingly!
Spice Level: For extra heat, add more cayenne pepper or some diced jalapeños to your meat mixture.
Meal Prep: Double or triple the seasoning mix and store it for easy taco nights in the future.

Enjoy your taco night with Kay’s flavorful taco seasoning mix, and make every bite count! 🌮🎉
