Italian Dressing Mix

I wanted to make my Italian Chicken in the Crockpot for dinner yesterday. I didn't have any Italian dressing mix and didn't want to make a trip out to the store for it.

With a little internet search I came across this recipe for the mix using ingredients I already had. Our dinner turned out delicious!

Ingredients:
 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbs onion powder
2 Tbs oregano
1 Tbs dried parsley
1 Tbs Sugar
2 Tbs salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp basil
1/4 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp dried celery leaves or flakes (I substituted 1/4 tsp celery seed)

Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together and store. I used 2 Tbs for a packet of dressing mix.

For Italian Salad Dressing: Mix 2 Tbs of mix with 1/4 C vinegar, 2 Tbs water, and 1/2 to 2/3 cup of oil. Shake well.

1½ teaspoons garlic powder

1 tablespoon onion powder

2 tablespoons oregano, ground or leaves

1 tablespoon dried parsley

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

2 tablespoons salt or substitute

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon ground basil or leaves

¼ teaspoon ground thyme or leaves

½ teaspoon dried celery leaves or flakes
