This is no grand story....But it does happen to fit into my trying to eat cleaner. The other night I decided to cook Taco meat for supper. I was out of Taco seasoning, so I came to computer and pulled a recipe off of Pinterest. Then I got to thinking...I wonder how much extra stuff is in those Season packets that I can't even pronounce the words to? Any way, I had all the ingredients that I needed. I changed mine up just a bit.
Taco Seasoning
2 1/2 Tablespoons Chili Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
1/2 Teaspoon dried Oregano
1 - Teaspoon Paprika
1/2 Tablespoon Coriander (which is Cilantro)
1/2 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (more if you like spicy) (recipe called for 3/4 teaspoon)
2 - Teaspoons ground Cumin
2 - Teaspoons Salt
2 - Teaspoons Black Pepper
Brown 1lb Hamburger, Add 3 Tablespoons Seasoning with 1/2 cup water. Simmer to let flavors get into the meat. Seal extra in an air tight package.
I am going to make up a big batch of it, so I always have some on hand!
Yes, to trying to eat a little healthier! Whoops.....I did have mine over Tortilla chips. Well, I am sure that I took some of the bad out.
