Super Easy And Delicious Taco Seasoning!

January 9, 2018 By Julie Hasson

A Photo Of Easy Homemade Chili Powder | Julie's KitchenetteI’m finally posting the recipes for my Facebook Live videos! There are more coming this week. I’m going to continue doing a Facebook Live video every week, so follow me on Facebook if you would like to be notified each time I post one (http://www.facebook.com/juliehassoncooks/).

This recipe for my double duty chili and taco seasoning is super-easy to make, and is adapted from the chili powder recipe in my book Vegan Casseroles. I always keep a huge jar in my pantry, as it’s one of my go-to spice blends. I usually double the recipe, but I’ve been known to triple it too. When I make a batch, I most often make enough to share with my daughter (she’s a fantastic cook with a gorgeous kitchen of her own, but that’s another blog post).

I originally came up with this recipe when I was writing Vegan Casseroles. A number of my awesome testers live in Australia, and they were unable to buy an American-style “chili powder,” at least a version that wasn’t 100% super-hot ground chilies. The Aussie chili powder is apparently just ground chili (such as cayenne), without the addition of the other spices. So this was a way for everyone to make my chili recipes, even if they couldn’t get their hands on the chili powder we’re used to here in the states. 

Also, as a side note, I did taste tests with store-bought chili powder versus this homemade blend, and the difference in flavor was crazy!! Hands-down, making your own homemade taco seasoning is the way to go. I’m also going to experiment soon, and see about adding a tablespoon of rice flour or Maseca corn masa to it, so it will thicken sauces a bit too. Often the store brands have a bit of thickener added to them, but I haven’t noticed a need for it.

I also love that this blend is naturally gluten-free and contains no preservatives.

                                                                                     

Here’s the recipe. I’d love to hear if you make it too! You can tag me on Instagram @julieskitchenette or #julieskitchenette.

    It’s great when recipes are naturally gluten-free! The flavour combination sounds incredible, I can’t wait to try this with tofu 🙂
