Notes
You can half, double, or triple the recipe according to your requirement.
I have used American chili powder, which is mild in taste and bright red. If you are using other chili powders that are hot, you can decrease the amount.
Adjust the quantity of salt and chili powder according to your taste preference.
2 tbsp of this homemade taco seasoning equals one packet of store-bought seasoning.
Use 2 tbsp for marinating 1 pound of meat. Add some water or oil to make a paste if you use it to marinate meat or veggies.
