Taco Spices & Seasonings    
    
This is a clone for the stuff you buy in 1 ounce packets to create, 
as the package says, "a fun-filled Mexican fiesta in minutes." 
Isn't that so true? In fact, thanks to Lawry's my last Mexican 
fiesta was so filled with fun that I had to take a nap. And now I 
promise you just as much fun with this TSR clone -- maybe even a 
tad more fun if you're lucky. Just mix the ingredients together in 
a small bowl, then add it to 1 pound of browned ground beef, along 
with some water and let it simmer. Before you know it you'll be up 
to your eyeballs in fun.    
    
1 tablespoon flour    
1 teaspoon chili powder    
1 teaspoon paprika    
3/4 teaspoon salt    
3/4 teaspoon minced onion    
1/2 teaspoon cumin    
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper    
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder    
1/4 teaspoon sugar    
1/8 teaspoon ground oregano    
    
Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl.  To prepare the meat
filling for the tacos as described on the original package instructions:  
"In large skillet, brown 1 pound ground beef until crumbly; drain fat.  
Add spices & seasonings and 2/3 cup water; mix thoroughly.  Bring to a
boil: reduce heat to low and cook, uncovered, 7 to 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally.  Spoon meat filling into warmed taco shells or tortillas.  
Top with shredded lettuce, grated cheddar cheese and chopped tomato.  Use
fresh salsa and guacamole if desired."

Makes meat filling for 12 tacos (about 3 tablespoons each).
