Recipe Roundup for Vacation Week (Mexican Seasoning Recipe)

I’m blogging from the beach in Gulf Shores, AL this week. I’ve already done some cooking for a small army, and will continue on until Friday. After that, the plan is to be a diet of sorts for a few weeks until the kids are home after two weeks with their dad.

Monday: Potato Soup

Tuesday: Mexican (Taco Seasoning Recipe Below) and Neen’s Homemade Ice Cream

Wednesday: Chicken Pot Pie

Thursday: Roast Beast Beef, carrots and potatoes, Peach Cobbler

Friday: Mama’s home with no kids, so I’m NOT cooking!

Recipe: Taco Seasoning

*Note* I’ve been using this recipe for a few years, and wish that I would have brought my can from home for vacation this week. I add a little water to my ground beef before adding this, and as a dry rub for chicken or steak. I also add salt to taste, but only after everything is done.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried minced onion (this is one of the 2 oz. bottles from Walmart)
  • 1/3 cup cup chili powder
  • 2 tablespoons cumin (I actually add an extra tablespoon-we love cumin)
  • 4 teaspoons crushed red pepper (this can get spicy, use less if you have little ones or don’t like it too hot)
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 4 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients and store in a cool, dry place.
  2. When you’re using for Mexican dishes, use about 1 tablespoon or so per 1 pound ground beef, or chicken or beans. More if you like the extra flavor.

Cooking time (duration): 1

Culinary tradition: Mexican
