1. Chili Powder...because I have an awesome Chili recipe (called Quick and Hearty Chili) from a family friend, which calls for chili powder. Plus, I kind of like to add a little extra chili powder...to a lot of things.
2. Cumin...normally not a well-used spice, but it is in my house because I have an awesome recipe for Creamy Chicken Enchiladas from my sister-in-law, Linda, and cumin is definitely the key ingredient.
3. Paprika...because Casey loves a skillet fried chicken recipe I found back when we first got married and the paprika really makes the dish. And it calls for a whole tablespoon each time and that's a lot out of a little spice jar.
4. Garlic Powder...because I'm always mixing this with a little butter to brush on rolls. And because we like garlic.
5. Oregano...because you can sprinkle it in or on just about anything. And I do.
I love to use dill weed, cumin, cilantro (sometimes fresh, too), and I know salt and pepper are a give but I only use fresh ground pepper melange and ground sea salt crystals. Mmmmm!
ReplyDeletesounds like you need to post some recipes!
ReplyDeleteI use cumin in almost everything.
ReplyDeleteI also use basil and garlic powder a lot.
I use "Nature's Seasoning" by Morton a lot... it is a blend of spices and tastes good on everything! Certain recipes I make wouldn't taste the same without it... a must have!
