Chili Powder

DIY chili powder is so easy to make, and store-bought seasoning mixes are such a waste of money and cabinet space. I find chili powder to be a redundant seasoning mix. In so many recipes that call for it, the same spices are listed separately as well. So when I'm tweaking a "keeper" recipe I tweak the chili powder right out of it by doing a little ratio math. Not everybody is going to do that, so here's the recipe so you can mix up a batch and refill the old store-bought jar.

Makes 5 tablespoons

• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons oregano
• 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 1/4 teaspoons granulated garlic
• 3/4 teaspoon cayenne
• 3/4 teaspoon granulated onion
