It’s always nice to have a handful of homemade spice mixtures on hand to jazz up the typical veggie side dishes I eat. Making your own spice mixtures ensure that there are no added fillers, preservatives, or sugar. This Mediterranean spice mixture has a lot of the flavors of the Mediterranean and is versatile for many recipes. I often double or even triple the recipe so I have extra on hand to add to marinades for chicken or to add to homemade salad dressing. You could even buzz the mixture in a spice grinder if you prefer a finer texture.
