I'll admit, I was one of those people who used to buy packets of taco seasoning mix for taco night. Let's face it, its easy, cheap and makes for a really good taco. What I wasn't paying attention to is how much MSG and hidden sources of gluten are in them. Once I learned how to make my own, I have never turned back. This recipe is enough to make a batch that will last several taco nights. Store in an air tight container in a dry place with your other spices. A tablespoon or two per recipe is all you need to make the best tacos your family has ever had!
