Turmeric Free Gluten Free Cajun Seasoning
Most store-bought Cajun blends sneak in fillers, anti-caking agents, or surprise spices that can throw off a carefully managed diet — this homemade version puts you fully in control. Two types of paprika bring deep, smoky-sweet color and flavor, while garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and thyme build that classic Southern backbone. Cayenne and white pepper deliver the heat you expect from a proper Cajun seasoning, with no hidden ingredients to second-guess. It comes together in minutes with a quick stir, and a sealed jar keeps it fresh for up to six months on your pantry shelf. Sprinkle it over chicken, shrimp, roasted vegetables, or anything else that needs a bold, aromatic kick. Once you make your own, it's genuinely hard to go back to the packaged stuff.
