…Easy Cajun seasoning blend
Homemade Cajun seasoning blend is a great way to use up the spices in your pantry. Grilled potato wedges are one of our favorite ways to use this spice blend.
So often, we buy a jar of a particular spice because a recipe calls for a teaspoon, and then we don’t know what to do with the rest of it.
Here’s one way to use them up. Make your own spice blends instead of buying them. Making your own seasoning blends, like this steak dry rub, versus buying them is a fraction of the cost.
