Remember my friend Fabulous Gwen??  If don’t, just go back & read some of my posts about her … she’s the knitting Queen!!  Here’s her recipe for homemade taco seasoning …..

1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup dried onion flakes
1 tsp dried minced garlic
1 cup chili powder
2 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. salt (optional)

Mix all together. Keep in air tight container. After browning ground beef, add 3-4 Tbsp + 2/3 cup water.
(Works just like the packets you would buy from a store. I use only 3 Tbsp because it’s thriftier… I get more servings per batch. Also, I don’t put in the salt. I think meat is salty enough. Plus, if I watch my salt, the weight comes off faster - I’ve lost 25 lbs since we moved out to Iowa!

For those of you that are knitters … Gwen does have a website for you to visit!!  Check her out at GW Knitting! You name it, she can knit it!! Thank you Gwen, for giving me my start into the world of knitting!!!
