Copy Cat Recipe - Taco Bell Taco Seasoning (3)

After tons of trail and error this is a very close match to Taco Bell Seasoning that they use in their meat. Make it in about 1 minute – just put all the ingredients in a jar and shake and you are done. Simple. PLUS simply use gluten-free flour and this is gluten- free and use gluten – free beef bouillon granules.

Here is my own personal taco seasoning – Homemade Taco Seasoning Recipe

Everyday at 1 pm PST/ 4pm EST Budget Savvy Diva posts a NEW RECIPE 🙂 I might miss this time every now or then – but I know you understand

    This is nice to know. I have those spices on hand in my cabinet so I can make my own rather than purchasing their packages.

    How much do you use with 1 lb of hamburger? Thanks! I love your website, we have made so many recipes off of here! 🙂

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      The full amount 🙂

      • JoAnna

        Thanks! 🙂

  • Angie

    Hi, thank you for this recipe.

    If we wanted to make a whole jar full how much would each time?

    Also if we did not want to use beef bullion granules could we use beef broth instead?

    • Olivia

      Hi! I was wondering the same thing myself so that I could make a large jar and have it on hand.
      I did the calculations and the recipe is 5 tbsp all together. So if you make 8x the recipe you will have 2.5 cups. If you make 16x the recipe you will have 5 cups. Every time you use it just take 5 tbsp at a time. 🙂

  • Kristi D.

    Cool I can’t wait to try this! I’d be nice to make my own instead of buying the packs all the time.

  • mark

    Those beef granules are loaded with MSG.,otherwise would be perfect.

  • Jenn Westad

    Awesome! Although MSG is not bad for you (mark). It was a gimmick.

    I would love to make my own Taco Seasoning but need it to be low sodium…..How would I be able to do that ? I found an MSG free Beef Bouillon…..Is MSG the same as sodium(salt)

  • Shauna Collins

    The best recipe ever. I did omit the garlic salt and used garlic powder. Then a 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt. A healthier option. I used salt free beef bouillon powder pack. I have made this twice in one week. A hit at my house. Thank you!
