Homemade Meatloaf Seasoning

Sometimes, seasoning is a simple matter of using some salt and pepper. This recipe is for a more complex spice mix with just enough heat from the mustard and paprika to add some kick without being overly spicy. Classic flavors of paprika, garlic and onion round out this savory spice mix.

You can whip up a great meatloaf mix in next to no time once you know what youโ€™re doing.

You’ll Need

Youโ€™ll need some key ingredients to take your meatloaf to the next level. Luckily these are all pantry staples that you probably already have in the kitchen. These are:

  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • ยฝ teaspoon Salt

How to Make Meatloaf Seasoning

Putting together spice blends is pretty easy, and itโ€™s a lot of fun once you get into it. Itโ€™s so satisfying to have some minute control over how you prepare your food.

To make your spice blend, simply follow the below steps.

  • In a small bowl, youโ€™ll want to combine all your spices. You can break down any of the tougher ingredients like the herbs using a mortar and pestle, a spice grinder, or a food processor. Do this until youโ€™ve reached your desired consistency. If your herbs are already ground to a fine powder, you donโ€™t need to do this.
  • You either serve the seasoning, apply it to your meatloaf, or store it for later use. Little ziploc bags or empty spice containers are a great way to store your spice mix. Just be sure to label them!

Storage

Dried spices keep well for up to a year when stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Just avoid moisture. Give your spice mix a good shake before using, especially if itโ€™s been sitting for a while.

โ—The above quantity of spices should yield enough mix to flavor a two pound meatloaf. You can use more of each spice, in the same ratio, if your meatloaf is heavier and you need to make more.
