Making your own spice blends is fast, cheap, and easy!

I do not do exact measurements as I tend to do big batches at a time.
Here is my ratio:

5 parts Paprika
1 part Garlic Powder
1 part Cumin
1 part onion powder
1 part chili powder
1 part oregano

I do not add salt as a preference, but you certainly can if you feel it needs it.

If you want a more exact recipe:

Small Batch:
1 TBS Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Oregano

Large Batch:
1/3 cup Paprika
1 TBS Garlic Powder
1 TBS Cumin
1 TBS Onion Powder
1 TBS Chili Powder
1 TBS Oregano
