Low Sodium Taco Seasoning Tips

Add 1 teaspoon of poultry seasoning to make a tasty seasoning to use with turkey or chicken. 

Make it your own! If you don’t like paprika, don’t use it. If you like your spices with a little extra kick, add in a bit more cayenne.  

If you’re following a recipe that calls for one packet of taco seasoning, use 2-3 TBSP of this blend. (2-3 TBSP = one store bought packet) 

Make lettuce-wrapped tacos with seasoned ground beef. 

For an extra kick, try adding a bit of this seasoning to our Hot Cheesy Taco Dip or Vegetable Chili Salad recipes!

Make a big batch and store it in a cool, dry place in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
