Nov. 19, 2008 - A Homemade Christmas- Mexican Seasoning Gift Jar

My Homemade Christmas gift this week is super simple and very yummy.  I love Mexican food and so I am assuming everyone else on my Christmas list does too.  Right? You do don't you?

This mix is quick to put together and my favorite reason for using this recipe is that you can control the sodium content.  Who wants to use those little packets of taco seasoning with all that sodium when you can use this wonderful mix and know what you are eating.


Mexican Seasoning Mix

1/2 cup flour
4 T. chili powder
1/2 cup onion powder
4 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt
8 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
4 tsp. sugar
4 tsp. cumin
2 tsp. oregano

Put ingredients in a blender or food processor and process for just a few seconds. 

Store in airtight container.  This makes around 10 servings.
Use 3 T.  in place of taco seasoning packet.

Oh, my sweet sister. I was never aware of this little concoction. I believe I will have to whip some up soon. My daughter loves Mexican seasoning on her food as well as Creole seasoning. She is just FULL of flavor.
