Directions
Step 1
Measure out all the spices and place them into a small mixing bowl. Ensure your spices are gluten-free by checking the packaging, especially for chili powder and spices that may have cross-contamination risks.

Step 3
Taste a small pinch of the mix to adjust for salt or heat levels to your preference. Add more cayenne pepper for additional heat, if desired.

Label the container with the name 'Taco Seasoning Mix' and date it for freshness. The seasoning mix will stay fresh for up to 6 months when stored in a cool, dry place.
