Sometimes, what you crave most is a simple meal like the ones you remember from childhood. A burger and fries. Mac and cheese.
Like??_A taco.
Just as easy to use as the foil packets from the "Mexican" aisle at the supermarket, but with more robust flavor, our Taco Seasoning Blend is the perfect go-to ingredient for a quick weeknight taco supper.
A traditionally flavored and well-balanced blend, our Taco Seasoning Blend makes a terrific, thick sauce for tacos, or can be used to make sauces for other Tex-Mex inspired dishes, too. Taco Seasoning Blend is a wee bit spicy, but not hot: blend of paprika, cayenne, onion and other spices. [If you like heat, add a pinch or two of your favorite chile]. Taco Seasoning Blend is a tasty enhancement to a grilled Taco Burger, too [don't forget the pepper jack cheese!].
To make old-fashioned ground beef tacos: Mix 1 to 2 Tbsp Taco Seasoning Blend with 1/4 Cup water, and stir into 1 lb cooked, drained ground beef. Heat till mixture is bubbling and sauce thickens. Note: Customers have noticed that our taco seasoning is a little bit spicier than the store package, so I would start with 1Tbsp.
For an even easier mid-week taco meal, try this Easy Chicken Taco recipe:
Put 2 lbs *frozen* boneless, skinless chicken breast in a counter-top slow cooker. Shake 1/4 cup Taco Seasoning Blend over frozen chicken. Pour 1 16 oz jar of mild picante sauce or salsa over chicken. Raid the refrigerator, and if you have any beer you don't like, or have a partial bottle [yeah, I know] that's lost its head, pour that in the slow-cooker too. Put the lid on the cooker, cook on high for at least 4 hours [on low for at least 6 hours]. Shred delicious chicken with a fork, serve with tortillas, taco fixings, and a bottle of beer that you *do* like.
Ingredients: Chile powder, garlic, salt, paprika, onion, cayenne, corn starch, other spices.
