    Keto Taco Seasoning In 1 Minute

    Published: Jan 10, 2022 · Modified: Oct 17, 2022 · By: Joe Duff

    Jump to Recipe

    This keto taco seasoning can be thrown together in just 1 minute and it is a healthy, sugar free alternative to the taco seasonings you'll find at the grocery store. Plus, each serving of this keto taco seasoning recipe has just 1 NET CARB! A class jar with taco seasoning in it. Behind the jar is part of a white with some taco seasoning mixed on it.

    THE BEST KETO TACO SEASONING

    This homemade low carb taco seasoning is so, so much better than the packets you can buy from the store.

    It is sugar free, gluten free, lower in sodium, and is packed with classic taco flavors. And it uses all the ingredients you'll recognize without all of the unnecessary additives. 

    Oh, and it is beyond simple to make too. All you have to do is mix the ingredients together - that's it. So, if you have these ingredients on hand, making your own taco seasoning is actually easier than going to the store to buy it!

    Also, another plus is this recipe makes about 8 tablespoons of keto taco seasoning - you would have to buy 4 packets from the store to get that amount! 

    And it is the perfect addition to a variety of low carb Mexican food, like my keto tacos - or, add this low carb taco seasoning to some ground beef, put it on my keto tortilla chips with some toppings, and you've got yourself some tasty nachos.

    INGREDIENTS 

    What I love about this recipe is it uses all staple pantry spices and seasonings.

    So I can pretty much guarantee you have every single ingredient in your kitchen already. 

    Here is everything you'll need:

    • 3 Tbsps Chili Powder
    • 1 tablespoon Confectioners Swerve
    • 1 tablespoon Ground Cumin
    • 1 tablespoon Garlic Powder
    • 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika
    • 1 ½ teaspoon Dried Oregano
    • 1 ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
    • 1 ¼ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Powder
    • 1 ½ teaspoon Salt
    • 1 ¼ teaspoon Pepper

    Pretty common seasonings, right?!

    Also, just so you know, you can use this seasoning to make my homemade Mexican chorizo. So, if you want to put this stuff to good use, give that recipe a try. It's so, so good! 

    By the way, I use some of these same seasonings to make my keto meatloaf, so you can get more use out of them and make that for your next family meal!

    HOW TO MAKE TACO SEASONING

    In just a minute, you'll have a gluten free taco seasoning with 1 NET CARB that will elevate the flavor of so many dishes and give you that authentic Mexican taste. 

    And there's definitely some fun in making homemade taco seasoning because it's so quick and easy to do - so, if you've got some kiddos at home, consider including them in the making of it.

    Now, gather your ingredients, and let's get to it! 

    MAKING THE KETO TACO SEASONING

    First, get out a sealable glass jar or airtight container.

    Then measure out each ingredient and add them to the jar or container. And you can add the ingredients in any order you want.

    Once all 10 of your ingredients are in, seal your jar or container and shake well until everything is combined and you have a mixed taco seasoning!

    STORING YOUR TACO SEASONING

    As I mentioned earlier, this recipe will make 8 tablespoons of taco seasoning. 

    And what's great about it is it will last in your airtight jar or container at room temperature for up to 1 year! 

    So I highly suggest doubling or tripling this recipe so you'll always have some deliciously flavorful keto taco seasoning on hand.

    KETO RECIPES FOR YOUR TACO SEASONING 

    This keto-friendly taco seasoning is super versatile and is excellent for a ton of different recipes. 

    Here are some of my favorite ones to add it to: 

    • Keto Tacos
    • Keto Taco Casserole
    • Keto Stuffed Peppers
    • Keto Chili Recipe
    • Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
    • Instant Pot Keto Taco Soup

    WRAPPING IT ALL UP

    That is how you make keto taco seasoning that is gluten free, sugar free, low carb, and free of any additives and unknown ingredients. 

    And even though this is a healthy taco seasoning recipe, it still has all the flavor, if not more flavor, than the seasoning you would buy from the store.  

    Try it on some of those recipes I mentioned above, and your tastebuds will thank you.
