My homemade pizza seasoning recipe is the perfect way to add some flavor pizzazz to your favorite dishes. Easy to make, and extremely versatile, this seasoning mix is a must have in your spice cabinet.

 

I love trying different seasoning blends and one of my favorites is the Trader Joe’s Pizza Sprinkle, it’s packed with classic pizza flavors that make everything taste so good. Unfortunately, we don’t live close to a Trader Joe’s so getting my hands on a bottle can be hard. That’s why I decided to make my own pizza seasoning blend.

At first, I wasn’t sure if I could recreate the taste I was looking for but after a few tries I landed on a recipe that is delicious! Now, I try to always have a jar on hand. It’s perfect to put on pizzas, pasta, and so much more.

The best thing is you can easily tweak the recipe to your taste. It’s a great way to add flavor to just about anything.

If you like making your own seasoning blends be sure to try this easy chili seasoning, meatloaf seasoning, and sloppy joe seasoning.

• On sandwiches – This pizza seasoning is great sprinkled on pizza subs or meatball subs.

Heather’s recipe tips

• Try using fresh herbs and spices. I recommend trying to use fresh herbs and spices for the freshest flavor.
• Adjust to your taste. I find that this is a great base recipe that you can easily adjust to your liking.
• Make it finer. If you prefer a finer texture, you can place the mixture in a spice grinder.

Storage tips

Make sure to store the mix in an airtight container. I recommend adding a label with the date you made it so you will know how long it has been in the spice cabinet. Also make sure to store it in a cool, dry place away from the sunlight.
