Ingredients
  

  • 2 parts cayenne pepper or regular chili powder
  • 1 part paprika or smoked paprika
  • 1 part ground cumin
  • 1/2 part onion powder
  • 1/2 part garlic powder
  • 1/4 part chipotle powder optional

Instructions
 

  • Measure out all the ingredients. Your part can be as large or small as you would like. Cups or tablespoons, it's up to you.
  • Mix it all up really well. Use a whisk to break up any clumps in the spices.
  • Store the seasoning mix in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.

Notes

I sometimes use 1 part chipotle powder and 1 part chili powder. You can leave out the cayenne if you want to. Or add more if you want more heat.
 
For this taco seasoning mix, 3 tablespoons equals 1 regular package of store bought seasoning.
