Instructions

Mix together all spices. This recipe is equivalent to 1 store bought seasoning packet (1.25 oz or 35 grams).
Store in an airtight container until ready to use (great in our classic vegetarian chili, black bean chili, or lentil chili).

Notes

Storage: If stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry environment (like your pantry), this chili spice blend should stay fresh for about 6 months. However, it will lose its potency over time.
