Best Taco Seasoning Ever!

This is a recipe I created as a quick and easy alternative to the typical packaged taco seasoning which is full of MSG and other off limit ingredients.  

1/2 teaspoon dried Onion
1/2 teaspoon dried Garlic
2 teaspoons Cumin
1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
1/4 teaspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Black Pepper
1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.  Pour over 1.5 pound of browned and drained ground beef.  Add 1/2 cup of water and simmer while stirring frequently until it thickens.  This recipe works great for ground beef, ground turkey and shredded chicken.  We have this once a week in my house.
