 Taco Seasoning This is a low-carb clone for the stuff you buy in 1-ounce packets from Lawry. Just mix the ingredients together in a small bowl, or coffee grinder (since I gave up caffeine, I converted mine to a spice grinder) and add it to a pound of ground beef, along with some water and let it simmer. It tastes very similar to the original and might be cheaper too. 1 teaspoon ThickenThin not/Starch 1 teaspoon chili powder 1 teaspoon paprika 3/4 teaspoon salt 3/4 teaspoon minced onion 1/2 teaspoon cumin 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/8 teaspoon Splenda 1/8 teaspoon ground oregano Combine all ingredients in a small bowl or coffee grinder. Brown 1 pound of ground beef and drain the fat. Add the spices along with 2/3 cup of water and mix completely. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 7-10 minutes. Perfect for taco salads or in a low-carb wrap. Enjoy, Jack  |

| Jack, this looks great. I really need a good taco seasoning, I've been using a national brand, but it has a few ingredients I really don't want. |

| I would put the cumino at the top of the list of ingredients. In both taco seasoning and chile seasoning, I use both roasted whole cumino seed and ground cumino. Maybe it's a TexMex thing. [This message was edited by Dan on 03-09-04 at 06:45 AM.] |

| Wanted to add my thanks, too. I've been thinking about asking for something like this. Thanks for reading my mind!
