Yes, the spoon is upside down. No, I didn’t know that when I took the photograph. 

Also, I love tacos. The seasoning packets at the store, which I admit I have used in the past, are apparently filled with sodium and a bunch of other artificial stuff that you probably shouldn’t be eating. 

Which leads me to this recipe. Taco seasoning. You will need these items:

Spices from top left: Turmeric (optional but I add it to everything for the health benefits), onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, coriander, oregano, chili powder and cumin.

I feel very strongly about using freshly ground coriander in my recipes because preground coriander is just not the same, man. It’s just not.

I wish there was smell on the camera. So does this lady. The smell of freshly ground coriander is amazing, lemony and refreshing.

Add all the spices to a bowl (the proportions are in the printable recipe card at the end of the post).

Use on chicken, beef, pork, fish, shrimp, or tofu. Ew. Sorry. Blech. Tofu and I haven’t gone “there” yet. I just look at him from afar wondering what it would be like. And then I come to my senses and remind my self that I go home to a freezer full of meat and that keeps me warm at night.
