Chili powder/taco seasoning... - Ron - 01-17-2007
Rather than use those noxious little supermarket packets of chili powder and taco seasoning, I've been making my own out of individual Penzeys spices. Doing it this way also keeps my individual spices fresher. Present recipes are good, but I would not object to something better. Does anyone have a killer recipe? I would like flavorful, but not hot (i.e., easy on the cayenne). TIA
