Homemade Spice Recipes, and a BONUS!

Speaking of making the seasoning for rice by ourselves, here are a couple of recipes that would be nice to try, either on rice or vegetables, in soups or salads or whatever.  I already like them!  And stay tuned at the bottom for a yummy, 2 ingredient dessert!

Dry Onion Soup Mix (by Budget101)
4 tsp instant beef bouillon granules
8 tsp dried minced onion
1 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp seasoned pepper

Combine all and store in a spice jar or bottle.

All Purpose Salt Substitue Mix (by Budget101)
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp basil
1 tsp dill weed
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp powdered lemon rind

Combine and serve in a salt shaker.

Almost Emeril's Southwest Seasoning Mix (by Budget101)
2 Tbs chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 Tbs paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1Tbs ground coriander
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 Tbs salt
1 Tbs dried oregano

Mix well and store in a spice jar or bottle.

All Purpose Spice Mix (by Budget101)
1/4 C sesame seeds
2 Tbs paprika
1 Tbs poppy seeds
1 Tbs + 1 Tsp chicken bouillon
2 Tbs dried parsley
1 Tbs onion flakes
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs celery seed
1/2 Tbs salt
1/2 Tbs pepper

Mix and store in salt shaker.  Gluten free, dairy free!

And now for a yummy, super easy dessert (or breakfast):

Yummy Pumpkin Muffins (again, Budget101)
1 Gluten Free yellow cake mix
1 15 oz can Pumpkin

Dump the cake mix and the pumpkin into a bowl, mix and bake in cupcake liners for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.  How easy is that?!  If you want to really get fancy, you can add a handful of chopped nuts or raisins (or both), or 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice.  Add a little dollup of Almond Milk Yogurt (recipe to follow, Becki?) and voila!!!
