A blend of dried herbs that you probably already own! Skip the store-bought blends, and make your own Homemade Italian Seasoning!

Flavor up a meatball soup, add it to your spaghetti sauce, or sprinkle it onto chicken, beef or pork!

As with any store-bought seasoning, many of them are easy to make at home using herbs and spices you already own. This Italian Seasoning Recipe is a blend of, well, Italian style herbs. There are SO many ways to make this seasoning, many involve garlic powder – in fact, my favorite recipe is a blend I make for just the husband and I has red pepper flakes (aka chili flakes) AND garlic. Because garlic is awesome.

THIS seasoning is a blend of basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, marjoram & sage and can be used in a ton of recipes – spaghetti sauce is one, but I love to mix it in olive oil and use it a dipping oil for crusty bread, as well as use it to make an Italian dressing (using olive oil, garlic, and vinegar as well). Really, any recipe that calls for Italian Seasoning is fair game! See below for some ideas!

To make your own seasoning mix – just combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Store in an airtight jar for up to 6 months. Herbs do go stale, so you want to be sure yours is fresh!

If you want to get fancy – you could mix this all in a food processor or a spice grinder – you’d get a more uniform size mix, but be careful not to process too much, or you’ll have powder!

Love making your own spice blends and seasoning mixes? (Me too!). Here’s a few to try.

• Tuscan Seasoning. This one has has all the ingredients of most Italian seasoning blends, plus a few extra spices. I’m talking fennel seeds, garlic powder and sun dried tomatoes (sometimes lemon zest too!)
• Pumpkin Pie Spice – warm spices, so perfect for Fall! Poultry Seasoning – so good, and perfect for roast chicken.
• Cajun Seasoning. Use this on chicken, fish or shrimp (or french fries)
• Taco Seasoning. Make your own, and rock Taco Tuesday!

Recipes that use Italian Seasoning:

• Italian Stuffed Peppers
• Easy Skillet Lasagna Recipe
• Instant Pot Chicken & Rice
• Pizza Sliders (from Sugar Spice & Glitter)
