Apple Pie Spice Mix

Making homemade spice blends is easy and affordable. Scale the recipe to make as much or as little as you need.

1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
pinch of ground cloves

1. Add everything to a Mason jar. Screw on lid and shake well to mix. Use within six months.

I used my Apple Pie Spice Mix in Caramel Apple Pie Burritos and Skillet Sautéed Caramel Apple Crisp!

Mexican Seasoning

I've posted several Mexican recipes involving this seasoning blend so I figured it was a good time to put it up as a stand alone post. This seasoning blend is quite versatile.

Mexican Seasoning:

2 tbsp oregano
1 1/2 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tbsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
pinch ground cloves
pinch ground cinnamon


1. Mix everything together in a Mason Jar. For best flavour, use within six months. Don't be afraid of the cinnamon and cloves. Trust me, they add great flavour and dimension.

Use for Crisp Beef Burritos, Braised & Shredded Beef Taquitos, Beef & Bean Enchiladas or Spicy Black Bean Tortilla Soup.

Greek Seasoning

Greek Seasoning:

1 1/2 tbps dried oregano
1 tbsp dried mint
1 tbsp dried thyme
1/2 tbsp dried basil
1/2 tbsp dehydrated minced onion
1 tsp freeze dried minced garlic
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

1. Mix everything together in a Mason Jar. For best flavour, use within six months.

Use on Greek Roasted Potatoes, Pork (or chicken) Souvlaki, or in Greek Salad Dressing!
