This spice mix goes together quickly and makes a great little gift to include with holiday greetings for neighbors and coworkers. They can mix it into chili and scrambled eggs, use it to season tacos and burritos, or add zip to a can of refried beans. -Tammy Rose, Danville, Arkansas

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

PLAN/PURCHASE
3 Tbsp chili powder, i prefer ancho
2 Tbsp dehydrated onions
2 Tbsp ground cumin
1 Tbsp dried oregano
2 tsp hungarian paprika, not smoked
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp black pepper, freshly ground.

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. If kept in a cool dry place (the pantry comes to mind), most spices will last up to a year.
  • 3. If you have an old glass spice bottle with a shaker top, that would be an ideal storage container.
  • 4. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
  • 5. All of the ingredients have a ground consistency, except 3: The dehydrated onions, dried oregano, and the red pepper flakes. So, before mixing all the ingredients together, place those 3 into a spice grinder, or mortar, and grind until they are the same consistency as the other spices.
  • 6. Mix all the ingredients together, and store in a bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid.
  • 7. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 8. I use this in a lot of different recipes: • With chicken, beef, or chicken tacos • Shake a bit over a taco bowl • As a spice topping on mashed, or smashed potatoes • Sprinkled over a queso cheese and chili dip • Add to mac & cheese for a South-of-the-Border twist And, leave a shaker full of it on the table for Taco Tuesdays Enjoy.
  • 9. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
