Having a Thermomix means we can make our seasonings additive and preservative free. Whilst this recipe does not require the use of the Thermomix, it does team up well with the Salsa which can be used not only as a dip, but mixed with beef or chicken for tacos or burritos.
I quadruple this recipe when I make it. If you wish to do this just store it in an airtight jar. Remembering too, that one batch for 500g mince is the equivalent of 5 teaspoons.

Just made this for dinner tonight, looks good. One question, how much would you use for 500g of mince?
Use the whole batch for 500g. 🙂
I made this tonight after trying other taco seasonings and this is by far my fav. I will make a big batch next time and store for convenience. Thanks ☺
Thanks Belinda – pleased you enjoyed it! 🙂
This is sensational – thank you ! Unbelieveably easy! Super spicy! Delicious.
made this few weeks ago and making it tonight, family loves it flavour are spot on
If I wanted to make a big batch of this to keep in the pantry, would I use 4.5 tsp per 500g mince?
Yes Mel that is exactly what I do! It’s so handy to have it on hand. 🙂
Perfect! Thanks 🙂
Hi, I am wanting to make this however don’t have majoram, could I do it without it ? Thank you
Another regular in my household for taco Tuesday!
Could you advise on a possible conversion to using fresh garlic and fresh onion for use immediately?
I find I don’t like those two as powders.
Loving Thermofun!
Hi Malinda, I would just leave those two powders out and when cooking a recipe that uses the taco seasoning I would then add a clove of garlic and an onion. I hope this helps. 🙂
Simple and delicious. Going to make a big batch next time. Wondering if it would be nice on Shredded chicken?
Hi Rebecca, yes it is lovely on shredded chicken. 🙂
Hi, I’ll be making this tonight. I’m guessing 400g diced tomatoes is canned or are you going to make be bust out my knife? ?
Hi Anne-marie, I’m not sure which recipe you are referring to – but yes all my recipes with tomatoes can use a 400g tin or 400g fresh tomatoes which you can dice with your best knife!! 🙂
