Homemade Taco Seasoning

One day I needed taco seasoning but realized I didn't have a package of it.   So I found a recipe online for how to make your own taco seasoning.


Spoon 1 tablespoon of minced dried onions in a small bowl or cup.
Add 2 teaspoons of chili powder.
Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt.
Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.
Add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch.
Add 1 teaspoon of ground cumin.
Add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper or hot paprika.
Stir to blend
Makes the equivalent of a 1 1/4-ounce package of taco seasoning mix.
