Here is a recipe that uses only fundamental ingredients. Every other recipe I have found for taco seasoning has chili powder in it, which is a mix itself that has many of the same ingredients as taco seasoning, but in different proportions. This recipe takes chili powder out, but puts its ingredients and proportions back in. Now you have full knowledge and control of all of the ingredients. Adjust the red pepper to your heat preference. I would rate the heat level for this at around medium-hot, so adjust the red pepper as you see fit. I hope to see other variations spring out of this one.

- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1.5 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder

This is a good freeze and eat later meal. It uses tofu, but you'd never know it! My cooking co-op loved this recipe! You can individually freeze the roll ups on a cookie sheet and place in a freezer bag.
Almost Tuscan Sausage and Kale Soup
My boyfriend loves this Tuscan sausage soup recipe and even prefers it to the Tuscan soup at a well-known restaurant! I adapted this from a diabetic-friendly recipe. If you want to make it that way, substitute sweet potato for the yellow potato.
Pineapple Cheesecake Squares
This recipe requires a little more time because of the refrigeration required, but it's not difficult and the results are well worth it!
