Notes

Substitutions
Paprika- I like to make this with smoked paprika to give the seasoning mix an extra depth of flavor, but regular paprika will work perfectly.
Tips and notes
If you like spicy taco seasoning, then you can add cayenne pepper to give this seasoning a bit of a kick.
For every pound of meat, you will use two tablespoons of this seasoning. So if you are using one pound of ground beef or ground turkey to make taco meat then you will use two tablespoons of this taco seasoning.
I like to make a big batch of this so I have plenty on hand for whenever I need it. If I make a big batch I will usually double the recipe.
Frequently asked questions
Does McCormick taco seasoning have sugar?
According to the ingredient list, no. It does contain corn starch which makes it not Whole30 compliant.
Can you use seasonings on Whole30?
Yes! Seasonings are a great way to liven up your Whole30 meals, just be careful with seasoning blends and make sure to check your labels!
What to use with
There are so many ways you can use this seasoning mix. Here are a few of my favorite ways.
Storing
Store this paleo taco seasoning at room temperature in an airtight container for up to six months.
I like to store my spices and spice mixes in a glass jar. These are the spice jars I have and I love them. You can also use an old spice jar or a small mason jar.
