Food, I love food. I love the endless variety of edibles that are available to us. We can shop the farmers markets, the big chain stores, the produce stands, the small corner stores, the ethnic food stores and we can grow our own. We can't possibly run out of new ideas or get bored with food.
Over the years I have ran into a few things that I don't care for and a few things that I wouldn't even try. But, if you subtract those things from the lists, there are still many things to try. There are also many combinations that can make a new treat from an old stand by.
Today I'm sharing a spice blend that I use often. It works with meats (great for grilling), casseroles, stews and soups.
Nada's Pepper Blend
1/2 c. Course Black Pepper
2 tablespoons Lemon Pepper
1 tablespoon Dry Chili Pepper
1 tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
1 teaspoon Dry Sweet Red Pepper
1 teaspoon Dry Sweet Green Pepper
1 teaspoon Dry Garlic
1 teaspoon Dry onion
1 teaspoon Dry Parsley
1/2 teaspoon Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Lemon Zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch of sugar
mix well and store in a closed container near where you cook. I keep some in a shaker next to the stove. If you really love one ingredient, add a little extra of it. If there is something you can't have or don't like, omit it.
