Taco Seasoning Recipe

Having a go-to taco seasoning recipe in your food prep rotation is a must. This taco seasoning recipe is not only delicious, but it is also easy and versatile. It is actually the MVP in our kitchen!

RV Cooking Made Easy

When it comes to preparing easy healthy RV meals, you want something that is quick and easy! Tacos are on our rotation about once a week for dinner. Usually, when I make them, I double the batch so that I have leftovers. I love to use the leftovers for quick breakfasts and lunches throughout the rest of the week. It’s one of the few things that I just don’t get sick of! Perhaps it’s because of all of the various ways you can serve it. If you are looking to expand your RV cooking recipes, definitely give this recipe a shot.

Ways to Use this Taco Seasoning Recipe

Use this recipe in place of the taco seasoning packets that you would normally buy in the store. In addition to saving money, you will be able to control the quality and freshness of the spices when you make this at home. You will also be able to eliminate unnecessary filler ingredients such as cornstarch and anticaking agents.

Use this taco seasoning mix on ground beef, ground chicken, and ground turkey for traditional taco meat. But don’t stop there. Taco seasoning vs fajita seasoning is basically the same thing, so flavor up chicken thighs, chicken breasts, skirt steaks, and flank steaks to get your fajita game on strong!

Aside from the obvious tacos, serve up your seasoned meat in the following ways:

  • drizzled with tajin sour cream
  • scrambled eggs
  • omelets
  • crustless quiches
  • fajita bowls
  • tostadas
  • quinoa salads
  • rice bowls
  • shepards pie
  • sweet potato boats
  • whole wheat pasta salads
  • whole wheat pita pockets
  • alongside Cuban Moros

Taco Seasoning Mix in Bulk

I recomend purchasing the individual ingredients in bulk size containers and making a huge batch of the seasoning. We typically use a 1/2 cup in place of the teaspoon measurement. This will give you enough seasoning for 24 batches! Doing this will make it much more inviting to cook up every week. Skip juggling the spice jars and prep ahead to save some time.

Winter RV Destinations

Winter RV Destinations

Winter RV Destinations are a driving factor in the annual route plans. We call this travel style “by region, by season”. In the winter, most RVers flock to the sunbelt destinations.  Snowbirds and sunseekers alike make places like Florida, Arizona, and California their home for the winter season.  If you live in a cold and snowy region of the country, taking your RV south for the winter might be a great way to maintain your healthy RV lifestyle year-round.  We all know that the cold of winter drives us inside and makes us less active, especially outdoors.  But what if you could skip winter entirely by choosing your winter RV destinations wisely?
