    This gluten free taco seasoning is one of the most trusted spice blends in my pantry and for good reason, it is delicious on basically anything and everything!!! I use it in my Taco Spiced Ground Beef , Fire Roasted Taco Soup, and the homemade corn nuts we love so much! While I love the particular blend of spices listed below, some of them may not been in your pantry right now, but you can easily customize my base recipe below by using ingredients you have on hand.

    A black bowl of red taco seasoning with a small copper spoon dipped into it.

    I made my first TV appearance on Atlanta and Company last January and shared how I make this spice blend although, I ran out of time. Ooops...it's ok though, you get the idea how to make the delicious gluten free taco seasoning! Click here to watch it!

      Very tasty. I added a can of Ro-Tel tomatoes and cut back on the water a bit. I found it a little bit spicy but my husband and daughter both loved it.

        I'm so glad your family liked it!!! I agree the staco seasoning has a bit of a kick - we tend to like a bit of heat over here! Thank you for taking the time to comment - next time I'm trying adding the tomatoes!
