Making your own Italian seasoning is easy: it takes a few minutes and uses spices you probably already have.

Instead of buying another jar, you can mix a blend that actually fits your cooking style. Adjust it as you go, add more of what you use most, and keep it on hand for regular meals.

This simple mix comes together quickly and works in just about any Italian-style dish.

Variations to Recipe

If you’re a fan of garlic or onion, feel free to add a teaspoon of garlic powder and onion powder for an extra depth of flavor.
