Once you taste your own homemade taco seasoning you’ll never want to buy another commercial packet. It is so good and you have complete control over all the ingredients and the amounts of each, customizing your blend to suit your own tastes. Spices and seasoning blends are one of the places that gluten can hide. You want a reputable brand to buy from so you can see for yourself exactly what is included in each spice, herb, or blend. I recommend you use spices from Penzey’s or McCormick - ...| The Heritage Cook ®
