Sesame Free Italian Seasoning
Store-bought spice blends can be a minefield when you're avoiding sesame, since shared processing lines and unexpected additives make even simple seasonings risky. Making your own from scratch puts you completely in control, and this fragrant mix of oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram is proof that homemade is almost always better anyway. The dried herbs come together in minutes with just a bowl and a spoon — no cooking required. A pinch of sage deepens the earthiness, and a little red pepper flakes adds a gentle kick if you're feeling bold. Sprinkle it over roasted vegetables, stir it into pasta sauce, or rub it onto chicken before it hits the pan — this blend does serious heavy lifting in the kitchen. Stored in an airtight jar, it keeps for up to a year, so one quick batch means you're stocked for countless meals ahead.
