Fajita Spice Blend

Original recipe from Tasty.co.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp chili powder (Frontier Co-op (Salt-Free) Chili Powder, Organic)

2 Tbsp whole cumin seeds

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika (ground)

1/2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp dried oregano

2 tsp salt

1 tsp whole peppercorns


Directions

Add whole cumin, dried oregano, and whole peppercorns to a spice grinder and pulverize to a fine powder. Combine freshly ground ingredients with the rest of the ingredients and mix until uniformly blended. Store in an air-tight container.

(I don't drink coffee, but the Cuisinart (DCG-20BN) Coffee Grinder works well for spice grinding.)

Long Steeped Iced Teas

The beauty of these tea recipes is that the teas are sweetened with 100% juice, meaning there is no added sugar or artificial sweeteners.  Add the tea bags directly to the juice bottle and let them steep overnight. If desired, removed the bags (two or three at a time) before pouring.
