🍴 Serving Suggestions
This delicious and convenient seasoning blend is great for all kinds of Italian dishes like pasta with meatballs. Add 1-2 tablespoons of spaghetti seasoning to any of your favorite pasta dishes like chicken spaghetti, American goulash, creamy chicken pasta bake, Italian sausage mac and cheese, Greek Spaghetti, and more.
It's great as a seasoning for garlic cheese bombs, meatball cupcakes, or garlic bread!
Of course, it's amazing in leftover spaghetti casserole, too.
You can use it to make Italian chicken meatballs instead of Italian seasoning.
Dipping Oil
You can also make a delicious dipping oil. In a small bowl, add 1 tablespoon of seasoning with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese. This with some crusty bread is one of my weaknesses!
