Taco Seasoning

In our house taco's are a favorite and pre-paleo days we had them once a week minimum.  But when we switched to Paleo, I could never find a comparable seasoning that we liked.  I am excited to say that I have finally found one we like, so I wanted to share it with you all.

2 TBSP  Chili Powder (if you like it spicier use, hot chili powder)

1 TBSP+ 2 tsp paprika

4 tsp ground cumin

3 tsp onion powder

3 tsp garlic powder

3 tsp sea salt

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper ( this will make a mild spice, I would add more if you like med-hot)

Mix and use or mix and store.  The spice is enough to make about 4 pounds of ground beef (I added about 2-3 cups of water).  So just use the amount of seasoning you would need for the amount of meat you have, add a little water.  Bring to a boil and simmer until the water is absorbed and it's ready to be served.

Sauerkraut and Apple Pork Roast

 Sauerkraut and Apple Pork Roast

Tonight I decided to try something different, I bought some sauerkraut a while ago with the intentions of making this but never got around to it until today.  I was a little hesitant as I am not a sauerkraut lover and neither are the kids, but took the plunge and decided it was time to venture out and try something different.  And it was awesome, it ended up being a favorite!  So... that said here is the recipe (keep in mind this can easily be scaled down for smaller serving sizes):
