Taco Seasoning

1 tbsp. chili powder
2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. each ground cumin, garlic powder, paprika, powdered oregano and sugar
1/2 tsp. salt

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Makes 3 tablespoons of seasoning mix, which is equal in strength to a 1/4 ounce package of commercial seasoning mix.

Audrey's little note: I've despised packaged taco seasoning for a long time now, don't know why it took me so long to figure out that I could make my own. I made taco soup with this mixture recently, and it was the best ever.
