i have an amazing find to share with you tonight. yesterday i was going to make crockpot chicken and rice for dinner but realized i had used the rest of my zesty italian dressing mix. this stuff is great for a million recipes, but i get irritated when i run out because it isn't the cheapest ingredient. so, i decided to wing it and search the internet for something close. let me tell you, this was just like the real thing! soooo good and crazy easy! i love eliminating an expensive ingredient! yahoo!zesty italian dressing mix

Great recipe! It's always nice making your own spice mix. Definitely saves a pretty penny!
Congrats on the find, it sounds like it was so fun to make and yummy too!
Wanna know a naughty recipe...? Oh well, even if you dont:
1 cube of butter
1 block cream cheese
1 can cream of mushroom
1 pkg of the italian dressing mix
heat in saucepan
Pour over 2 lbs shredded chicken wihth fresh sauteed mushrooms and mashed potatoes...then just sit on the couch and call it a day...DO NOT repeat :)
You are amazing! It's almost as if you read my mind... just this week I thought to myself, "I wonder if they have a recipe for italian dressing seasoning mix." That's kinda creepy. Thanks for doing the work for me!
