My Tandoori Spice Mix is the perfect way to enhance your proteins for dinner or meal prep. If you love Indian food just as much as I do, then you already know how magical smoky and warm tandoori flavors are. It’s delicious on chicken, vegetables or tofu.

Notes:

Storing Tandoori Seasoning:

Store in an airtight container away from heat for up to 3 months for the best freshness.

Helpful tips:

Although spices never really go bad- fresh spices make a noticeable difference in flavor — check those expiration dates!
Store away from your stove. Heat and steam break spices down faster.
Make in small batches so it stays fresh and potent.
