A Flavorful & Versatile Pantry Staple with Many Uses

This is the kind of seasoning blend I like to keep within arm’s reach. Smoky, savory and warm without being aggressively spicy, it gives you a solid Southwest or Mexican flavor base without reaching for a packet every time dinner needs help.


Use it to marinate and season meat for tacos like carne asada, chicken or vegetarian mushrooms as well as a general seasoning for roasted vegetables, soups, beans and rice. Make a big batch once and you’ve already done a little prep for several dinners down the road.
