    I’d suggest NOT using the Taco seasoning mix (they are usually full of additives and HIGH in salt) so make your own! All you need is cumin & chili powder and garlic powder.

    Trader Joes has a taco seasoning that is not full of additives. It’s quite spicy so I don’t use the whole packet.

    I hope it’s ok to post a recipe from elsewhere. I took CrossFit Mom’s advice and did not use a package. What I did use (along with ground turkey, which I have never preferred over beef) was this spice mix:

    I have to say, even with the turkey it made the best taco meat I have ever had in my life and I no longer see the need to use beef in my tacos. It is rather spicy so you may want to cut down on the black and red pepper. I should also warn you that you’ll want to eat WAY too much.
