Homemade chili seasoning can be used in many different recipes. This MSG-free recipe is simple to make and tastes so much better than store-bought versions. There are no weird preservatives or additives to the recipe. I am also able to control how much SALT I add to the mix! I love to make a double or triple batch of this homemade chili seasoning mix and keep it on hand to add a burst of flavor to other recipes. It only takes moments to make up a mix and the knowledge of knowing exactly what is in the mixture is comforting.
