The "Everything Savory" Cumin-Free Spice Jar

Get an empty jar and measure out these proportions (you can use a standard tablespoon to scoop them in):

• 3 tablespoons Garlic Powder
• 3 tablespoons Dried Chives (adds a beautiful, mild onion-and-herb pop)
• 2 tablespoons Onion Powder
• 2 tablespoons Smoked Paprika (gives everything a rich color and warmth)
• 2 tablespoons Dried Oregano
• 1 tablespoon Dried Basil
• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 1 to 2 teaspoons Salt (adjust to your taste)

How to use it to save your back: Shake the jar up well. When it's time to cook, just heavy-sprinkle it straight onto your veggies or dump a couple of tablespoons right into your batch-cooking ground beef. No measuring required at the stove!
