If you want a simple pantry spice blend that works on just about anything (chicken, veggies, potatoes, even soups), here’s a go-to mix you can whip up in 2 minutes:

Would you like me to also create a sweet pantry spice mix (like a warm cinnamon-sugar style for desserts/oatmeal), or keep it savory?
