5 Homemade spice blends to spice up your life 🌶️
Spice it up!I started making my own spice blends years ago because most store bought brands include too much salt, sugar and ingredients that I can't pronounce. Once I started making my own I never looked back, and my spice blends and rubs are some of my most popular recipes now. They're perfect for grilled meats, fish and veggies! My BBQ chicken rub is a reader favorite, and I always have my homemade taco seasoning in the pantry because we love Mexican food! My blackened seasoning and Jamaican jerk seasoning are guaranteed to add some spice to your life, and my za'atar spice is my all time favorite for it's herby, citrusy notes. What is the spice blend you use most often? Hit reply and let me know! Happy cooking, Marcie Homemade Spice Blends |

Hi Reader, April is just days away, and it happens to be my birth month. I thought it would be fun to share an OLD photo of me on my birthday. Yes, I grew up in the 70's as you can tell by the colors of our kitchen and how I was trying to feather my hair like Farrah Fawcett. I never played tennis either but just liked the shirt. 🤣🤣🤣 My birthday is on April 17th, so whenever it fell close to Easter my mom would make me an Easter bunny cake. I loved that cake and sometimes I think I need to...
Hi Reader, I was in Palm Springs for a few days this week. It was sunny and warm, and I got to wear shorts and flip flops for the first time in months. If that doesn't get a person in the mood for spring, I don't know what does. :) I definitely ate like I was on vacation, so I'm craving more salads than usual. I stocked up on plenty of greens and veggies at the grocery store last night after I got home so I have some salad prep to do today! Salads are truly the best way to get a wide variety...
