Ditch the store-bought packets and whip up this tastier, budget-friendly Homemade Taco Seasoning in a flash with common spices!

Homemade Taco Seasoning recipe (2 tablespoons per pound for ground beef) elevates not just my tacos, but also Dorito Taco Salad, Healthy Turkey Tacos, classic Taco Dip, and my favorite Taco Soup!

While store-bought taco seasoning is convenient, making a giant batch at home is even easier and cheaper, keeping you stocked for both classic and creative uses!

More importantly, it tastes GREAT.

This homemade Taco Seasoning mix combines common pantry staples like chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, and cayenne pepper, with the option of adding salt and cornstarch for thickening.

(Hint: for a grain free option, lose the corn starch and keep ALL the flavor!)

Homemade Taco Seasoning wins me over with its fresh, customizable flavor – a far cry from the dull, one-note taste of store-bought packets.
