Seasoning Mixes

Today's post is about seasoning mixes. I ran across these about five years ago, and I've been using them ever since. I've had people say "I'm just going to buy Taco Seasoning, etc..." which it totally fine. I just had all the ingredients in my cupboard anyway; so, these mixes help me keep them rotated faster then if I wasn't using them at all. Feel free to change them to fit your family's taste buds.

Spaghetti Seasoning

1 T. dehydrated onion
1 T. parsley flakes
1 T. cornstarch
1 T. salt
1/4 t. garlic powder
1 t. sugar
1 T. dried green pepper
1/4 t. basil
1/4 t. thyme
1/4 t. sage
1/4 t. marjoram
1/4 t. oregano

Equivalent to 1 pkg of seasoning.

Chili Seasoning

3/4 t. chili powder

Sloppy Joe Mix

1 t. salt
1/2 t. garlic powder
