Notes

  • Feel free to add your own variations like Dijon or Honeycup mustard instead of yellow.
  • I made extra sure this recipe only uses easy, accessible ingredients that last a long time in the fridge- making this recipe perfect for making large batches to use for all sorts of tasty dishes!
  • This seasoning may be designed for ground beef, but it's delicious on everything you can think of! I highly recommend mixing it into shredded chicken, leftover pulled pork, or even canned beans for a quick and easy flavorful dish.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, just swap out the soy sauce for Tamari or coconut aminos.
