During the Mushroom Festival, Wicked Healthy made a recipe using a blend of Onion Sage spice (their own label) not available where I live, so I created this blend and our family is obsessed. I hope you enjoy this blend as much as we do; but feel free to make it sweeter, saltier, more savory or add in a pinch of this or that to make it your own.

Creating your own customized spice blends is quick and easy, affordable, and convenient - here's a few more we use all the time: taco seasoning, shawarma spice blend, madras curry blend, southwest spice blend.

Homemade Spice Blend - Ingredients

A simple homemade Sage and Onion seasoning blend that is quick to throw together with ground spices you probably have in the pantry right now. So simple!

ground sage - prominent, earthy, woody flavor traditionally used in poultry seasoning, with buttery sausage stuffing/dressing recipes at Christmas or Thanksgiving, and all year long in Mediterranean rubs, buttery garlic pasta sauces, potatoes, and tomato sauces.
minced onion/onion flakes - a popular and complimentary flavor pairing with sage. Can sub granulated, but the small pieces of flaked onion are spectacular when baked and crunchy.
granulated garlic - dehydrated, ground garlic. Adds potent, concentrated garlic flavor.
coriander - dried, crushed seeds of the cilantro plant.
dry parsley - the most widely used herb in the world. Adds color and light flavor.
salt - coarse ground sea salt/kosher salt, elevates the flavors.
pepper - coarse ground black pepper for some heat.
sugar - just a pinch to balance the flavors.
red pepper flakes - optional for extra heat and color.
