No Salt Spice Mix

Use this spice endlessly when looking for no-salt alternative flavoring.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon marjoram
  • 2 teaspoons basil
  • 1 teaspoon black or white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

Mix and store the above ingredients in an airtight container (a snack size zip storage bag works well). For chicken or turkey, use rosemary in place of cayenne pepper. When roasting meat or poultry, apply a layer of finely minced onions, carrots, green pepper and celery on top of meat before roasting. The layer of minced vegetables provides flavor and keeps the meat/poultry moist.
