Nutmeg Free Italian Seasoning
Making your own spice blend at home is one of those small kitchen moves that pays off every single time you reach for it. Store-bought Italian seasoning blends can be surprisingly unpredictable — some brands sneak in unexpected spices or are processed on shared equipment, which is a real concern when you're avoiding certain ingredients. This version keeps things clean and straightforward, built entirely from classic Mediterranean herbs: oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram, with optional sage and red pepper flakes if you want a little extra depth or heat. Every ingredient is exactly what it says it is, nothing hidden, nothing unnecessary. It comes together in minutes with just a bowl and a stir, then stores in an airtight jar for up to a year — so you make it once and have it ready for pasta sauces, roasted vegetables, marinades, and more. The aroma alone when you open that jar is enough to make dinner feel like a proper occasion.
