Mix all the spices together and store in an airtight container Use 3 heaping tbsp along with 3/4-1 cup of water per 1 pound of ground meat or about 2 - 2 1/2 cups of a vegetarian alternative. You can also adjust the salt to taste if you prefer, although I'm pretty sure the recipe as is, is already less than a regular package of seasoning you buy from the store. Be aware that you may need to add more spice to flavor your food. This recipe makes quite a bit because I love to have it ready and waiting in my spice drawer in case I need it, but feel free to half it if you want.
