Southwestern Seasoning Mix

Seasoning mixes are so nice to have on hand but
sometimes the pre-made blends are loaded full of salt and
lack that fresh flavor. That's why I like to make my own blends.
I know exactly what is in the blends and
can make them to suit my family's taste.


Southwestern Seasoning blend is a perfect example.
This seasoning blend contains no salt or sugar and
can be used in place of packaged taco seasoning blend.
Use 2 or 3 tablespoons of southwestern seasoning blend and
3/4 cup water per pound of ground beef.


Basically you can use southwestern seasoning blend in any recipe that calls for taco seasoning mix.
It's also delicious mixed into ground beef,
sprinkled on chicken, pork ribs or steak.
Southwestern Seasoning Mix is great on anything!
