HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE TACO SEASONING

A simple combo of zesty spices create a perfectly flavored Taco Seasoning:

• Red pepper flakes

OPTIONAL ADD-INS

• The pepper flakes are enough for us, BUT if you like a little more heat, I suggest to stir in a bit of cayenne pepper. Start with mixing in about 1/8 of a teaspoon, taste, and decide if you want more.
