Cow-Sharing and a Taco Seasoning Recipe

Yesterday I was reading a cookbook about beef.  I learned a new term called cow-sharing.  It is when multiple people get together to purchase a beef from the farmer.  This is an option for you. Just check out the post from June 11 about how to purchase a split half of a beef.  Need even less meat, share your split half with another family.

My new cookbook has a recipe for every cut.  Stick with me and I'll share some of the recipes with you.  My first share is going to be one of our family favorites: Taco Seasoning.

Growing up with the last name of Bell we always joked when we were eating tacos at home that we were having Tacos By Bell. This is how I spice my meat before I make it into lasagna as well.  It makes a delicious lasagna.

For each pound of ground beef add:
1 tsp onion flakes
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp red pepper
1/4 tsp garlic
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp cumin

Now you won't have to buy packets of seasoning.  I find this one to be much better, just the right amount of spice but not hot. It is also cheaper.
