I love preparing my own homemade seasoning mixes. It only takes a few minutes and that way I know exactly what is in them and can easily customize them to my tastes. This Italian Seasoning Mix is just one example of the homemade seasoning mixes that I like to make and keep on hand!

Made with just a few ingredients that you most likely already have on hand, it makes it so much easier on those busy weeknights to add to chicken as it bakes, sprinkle in as I’m making spaghetti sauce, or even to just quickly add to vegetables for additional flavor as they cook. You can also use this in place of the garlic and other spices in my easy homemade Italian Dressing recipe. I comes together in a snap!

When I make it, I make sure to make enough to have a good little supply to get me through a few months. Since I’m using all dried spices and seasonings, it is shelf stable in the pantry as long as any of your other opened spices would be. Of course, I go through mine pretty quickly!

What Is In Italian Seasoning Mix?

To make my Italian Seasoning Mix, I use the following:

  • basil
  • oregano

  • rosemary
  • garlic powder
  • onion powder
  • salt – You may choose to omit the salt in the seasoning mix and simply salt your dishes to taste once prepared.
  • red pepper flakes (optional) – If you like to add a little heat to yours, you can include a bit of red pepper as well. I prefer to add the red pepper separately to dishes based on what I’m making.

  1. I am anxious to try this recipe. I keep Italian seasoning on hand and on my last trip to the store they were out of Italian seasoning. One of my favorite vegetable dishes is roasted fresh zucchini, peppers, broccoli, and mushrooms with a little olive oil and liberal amount of Italian seasoning. With this recipe I won’t run out of Italian seasoning for my favorite vegetable dish!

    1. Isn’t it great to make your own, Thomas?! I love the taste of it so much better too! Thanks so much!

  2. THANK YOU! Needed this recipe “in a pinch!” I had everything on hand except rosemary. My son asked for pizza in english muffins. You save my night! THANK YOU

    Guess what I’m including in my made from home gift baskets…. Thank You for the wonderful recipe. My friends and family will appreciate this so so much

    This was super easy to make and I didn’t have to buy anything extra seasoning to add into my lasagna. Thank you!!!

    1. As I stated in my post, if you want to add heat to the Italian seasoning mix, you can add a bit of red pepper. I sometimes add red pepper separately if a particular dish I am making needs a little more heat. But there are so many dishes I make with the Italian seasoning mix that does not need the pepper.

    1. Hi Beth,
      I have not tried adding fennel to this seasoning mix but it is included in some Italian seasoning mixes. Enjoy!
