Homemade Taco Spice Mix
Tasty taco spice mix that you can quickly make yourself at home by blending 7 budget-friendly herbs with sea salt.
Prep Time 1 minute
Total Time 1 minute
Servings 5 tablespoons
Ingredients
- 2 Tbl chili powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground oregano or 3 tsp freshly and finely chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder or 3 cloves freshly minced
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1.5 tsp sea salt finely ground
- 1 tsp onion powder optional. Add if you don't caramelize freshly chopped onions in butter before browning with the taco meat.
Instructions
-
Mix all the herbs and spices together in a small glass bowl.
-
Store in an airtight container in the pantry or your spice cabinet. I recommend glass for the best preservation of flavor. If making with fresh garlic and oregano, store in the refrigerator.

I typically use 1 tablespoon of this taco mix to season every 1 pound of taco meat.
