DESCRIPTION
This copycat taco seasoning tastes just like the packets and is so easy to make.
This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled. Use 2 tablespoons of the seasoning when one packet is called for in a recipe. You’ll need that same amount, 2 tablespoons, to season 1 pound of ground meat.
To use the seasoning to make taco meat, cook 1 pound of ground meat until it is browned and fully-cooked. Add 2 tablespoons of the seasoning and stir. Add 2 tablespoons of water and allow it to simmer for 2 minutes.
