Homemade Taco Seasoning

I've once again found something awesome on Pinterest. Homemade taco seasoning. Now I know EXACTLY what is in the seasoning. And this recipe makes pretty much the same amount as is in one of those packets. It's easy enough and you can make it as you go. Give it a try!

Heavy Cream Substitute

As stated in my last recipe, I didn't have the heavy cream. This recipe was used, and definitely works! I took into account the commenter's thoughts on this recipe and added one tablespoon of flour to thicken it.
