Mexican Spice Mix
A spice mix for burritos, fajitas, nachos and anything else with a Mexican tilt. Is it authentic? I doubt it, but tastes better than a shop bought packet mix
It's an easy one to make, and can be adjusted to taste. I often don't put the salt in so I can adjust that in the dish, but it's convenient to have it as part of the mix when cooking weeknight meals in a bit of a rush. Easy to scale up, I've put the measurements as tsp but usually double or triple the mix as it keeps for ages in a sealed jar. I've also stopped putting the garlic powder as it no longer agrees with me. Getting soft as I get older
