Greek Seasoning Blend

Flavors so warm they remind me of fall!What a fun recipe to make!!I hit the spice rack in from my pantry and stayed there throughout this recipe. I confess I didn’t even know my pantry was marjoram deficient. Not to worry, it’s on my shopping list now.Because of the rosemary and thyme, I decided to use the spice grinder and grinder all the ingredients.I didn’t have any store-bought Greek seasoning and of course turned to Allrecipes and found this gem.Here is what I used my new lively and heart-warming-thinking-of-fall Greek seasoning blend for: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/280227/air-fryer-salmon-for-one/

I needed Greek Seasoning for a recipe, stopped at two stores, neither of which had it, and I wasn’t about to go on a road trip to find it. Granted, there are a lot of bottles to pull out of the pantry, but these ingredients are always in my pantry (but regular oregano, not Greek), so I saved some $$$$ by mixing up my own. I scaled the recipe in half just to give it a try, and it filled my spice bottle about half full. It’s nice to be able to mix up a fresh batch rather than having a bottle sit on the shelf for a long time losing flavor, and it turned out satisfactory.

I used half the amount of cinnamon, as a matter of preference. It's EXCELLENT. The picture is our 'sand art' prior to mixing ;-)

i was a little skeptical about the addition of cinnamon and nutmeg, but it just takes it over the top without being overwhelming. Great flavours. Excellent recipe!

I was looking specifically for a Greek seasoning blend, because my grocery store doesn't carry anything by that name. I figured that I could mix one up myself. That's how I came upon the seasoning blend recipe. I do have to say, that I often us many of the seasonings listed, with the exception of cinnamon and nutmeg, as I don't use those in my dinner foods.
