Recipe: Homemade Creole Seasoning

I come from a Southern family so Creole Seasoning is used in quite a few recipes I make.  My husband also likes to sprinkle it over just about everything to give it an extra kick.  Buying it in the store can be expensive, but this homemade version is made from spices you probably already have in your cupboards and it just a tasty!


Creole Seasoning

Ingredients:
2/3 cup cayenne pepper (more if you really like it hot!)
1/2 cup salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup onion powder
1/4 cup chili powder
2 tsp pepper

Mix together and store just like you would any other spice!.  This makes a nice big batch perfect for gumbo and jambalaya and seasoning homemade fried chicken!
