Ditch the Box - Homemade Mix Series

I'm a starting a new mini-series here on Working Supermom... Homemade "box" mixes... You can make your own Ranch, Dry Onion Soup Mix and Taco Seasoning, Brownie Mix and more, then just store in mason jars or any air tight container...This allows you to know EXACTLY what your family is eating and they are so much healthier for you than the store bought mixes.

Unless directed mix ingredients in a bowl using a whisk and then pour into a mason jar using a funnel. For add in mixes like the Taco & Onion mixes, use 4 TBL in place of 1 packet of mix or you can add to taste. I used my label maker to create a label with the mix name as well as the exchange rate. 

For the ones that require ingredients in addition to the mix, like the brownies, I used an Avery label and printed up the directions on my computer and put it on the smooth side of the jar, you can play with fun fonts and colors if you want to give it as a gift.
