I have decided on Sunday I will make a Tamale Casserole. I made my own Taco Seasoning for this recipe since I didn't have any on hand.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons arrow root starch
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

How To Make taco seasoning mix

  • Step 1
    Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix with a wire whisk.
  • Step 2
    Put into a jar with a tight fitting lid and label. Store in a cool dry place.
  • Step 3
    This will last for up to 6 months. This will make 6-1 1/4 oz. packets (2 tbsp. each)
  • Step 4
    If you use this in a taco, brown 1 lb. of lean ground meat (beef, turkey, chicken) over med. heat in a fry pan. Reduce and cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stir occasionally. Makes enough to fill 8-10 tacos.
  • Step 5
    Enjoy!
