Stock your pantry with this versatile Homemade Italian Seasoning blend, or make up small jars to give as hostess, housewarming and holiday gifts!
Jump to:
One of my favorite things about the holidays is making my own gifts. I love spending time crafting something special for my family and friends. Homemade gifts don't have to be elaborate. In fact, food gifts are often the easiest to make. I've been making this Italian herb blend for my spice cabinet for a while now and decided to make another batch to give away this holiday season.
This mixture has all the classic flavors you'd expect in an Italian seasoning blend. Basil, oregano, and of course garlic, along with a few less popular such as marjoram.
The combination is perfect on a variety of pasta dishes like leftover spaghetti bake or casseroles and delicious on chicken, too! It's also great for meatballs, breadsticks, and more.
⭐ Tips
✔️If you like making your own spice blends, purchase your dried herbs, garlic powder, and other seasonings in bulk. It will save you money.
