Keto Taco Seasoning is incredibly simple to make, wonderfully flavorful, and best of all, low carb! Gather up some of the spices you likely already have in your spice rack and take your next taco night to the next level.
Why You're Going To Love It
- Fast. In a matter of minutes, you can have a flavorful low carb taco seasoning that will fit your keto lifestyle.
- Easy. Measure, Mix, and Store. That's it.
- Delicious. Tastes just as good (if not better!) than the storebought variety. You may never buy premixed spice blends again.
- Budget-friendly. If your family enjoys weekly taco nights, making your own blend of spices can save a ton of money over time.
Does Taco Seasoning Have Carbs?
While you might think to yourself "It's just a bunch of spices mixed together, it has to be low carb, right?"
Wrong.
Unfortunately, a lot of the prepackaged spice packets and mixes are full of preservatives and fillers to keep it fresh that can contain a surprising amount of carbohydrates.
But, there's good news! You can still enjoy all of the delicious flavors of low carb tacos with taco seasoning if you take just a few minutes to make your own.

How To Make Keto Taco Seasoning
I wish I felt like I could write more about how to make Keto Taco Seasoning, but it's so simple, all I have for you is two steps:
- Measure out the separate spices and place them into a bowl.
- Mix them well and store them in an airtight container.
That's it. Measure, Mix, Store, Enjoy!
What To Use It For
I know that it's called Taco Seasoning, so that's a given, but there are so many other things that you can utilize Keto Taco Seasoning for. Here are some of my less obvious favorite dishes to sprinkle this into:
- Sprinkle some into the breading for your Keto Chicken Tenders.
- Stir some into your Instant Pot Pinto Beans for a southwestern kick.
- Use it to spice up my Keto Chili.
- Mix it into the ground beef for your next Air Fryer Burger.
How Long Does It Last?
Homemade taco seasoning doesn't last as long as the seasoning packets you would purchase at your local grocer. In my opinion, that's a great thing! It simply means that your Keto taco seasoning isn't loaded with preservatives. Who doesn't love knowing exactly what they're eating?
That being said, homemade spice blends can still taste fresh for a respectable amount of time if stored correctly. Expect it to last for up to 6 months if kept in an air-tight container.
