"Unprocessing" Foods -- Entry 3 (Taco Seasoning)



Here is my third food to "unprocess", taking me halfway through my New Year's Resolution! (http://greatlettuce.blogspot.com/2013/03/unprocessing-foods-entry-1.html)  I adapted some recipes to fit our personal taste.  We are not keen on too spicy of foods.  You may like to give it a kick with red pepper flakes.

Taco Seasoning

For 1 lb of beef or chicken.

2-1/2 tsp chili powder

3/4 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp paprika

1/4 tsp pepper

1/8 tsp garlic powder

1/8 tsp onion powder

1/8 tsp dried oregano

(can substitute 1/2 tsp fresh cut oregano)

Combine spices & pour on meat.  Add 1/4 cup water & cook until thickened.
