Homemade Taco Seasoning


 
Ok I really love this quick and easy do-it-yourself taco seasoning mix.
Any time I can make something myself and see what is going into it I will.

Here's all you need.

1 T Chili Powder
2 t Onion Powder
1 t each - Ground Cumin - Garlic Powder - Paprika - Powdered Oregano and Sugar
1/2 t Salt


Just brown your ground beef, remove any excess fat.
Add your seasoning and 1/4 cup of water and stir.
{You can play with the amount you want to add to your ground beef}
Cover and bring to a simmer stirring often until well incorporated into the meat. 
And that's it!

 ---- just so you know -----
I use the whole packet but I usually do more than just a pound of ground beef also.

Chop up your favorite veggies and serve on corn tortillas with some lime cilantro rice!
Easy Dinner!

Helpful Tip
 Mix up a couple of bags of seasoning mix and store in your pantry for nights when you need a quick meal.

Gluten Free - Kobe's Steak House - White Sauce

This recipe is so inexpensive and so easy to make
not to mention it's
yummy too!

We keep a bottle of this whipped up and in the fridge for dipping steak and seafood into
or anything else that we feel could use a little saucing!

I've been making this sauce for a long while and was so happy when I discovered it was 
Gluten Free!

Let the Good-Times-Roll!
mmmmm


INGREDIENTS
1 Cup of Mayonnaise
1 T Butter or Margarine (melted)
1t Sugar
5 T water
1/2 t Garlic Powder
1/2 t Paprika
Chili Powder to taste to give it some kick if you want.
[ps - I never use the Chili Powder]

I mix all the ingredients with a whisk and then add the water at the end to get the desired consistency so it will easily squeeze from a squirt bottle!

And that's it! Pop it into the fridge and use the next time you do stir fry.
