Wheat Free Chili Powder Blend
Store-bought spice blends are one of those sneaky places where wheat-derived fillers and anti-caking agents can hide, making something as simple as seasoning your chili a genuine concern. This homemade blend puts you back in control, built entirely from pure ground spices with nothing extra added. Ancho chile powder brings a deep, earthy backbone, while smoked and sweet paprika layer in color and complexity that you just don't get from a generic supermarket packet. Cumin, coriander, and oregano round everything out, and a touch of cayenne gives it just enough heat to keep things interesting. Whisk it all together in a bowl, pour it into a jar, and you've got a pantry staple that keeps for up to six months. Use it in chili, rubs, marinades, roasted vegetables — honestly, once you make your own, it's hard to go back.
