Chick’n Spice Mix

• This blend is designed to mimic savory “chicken-style” seasoning using warm, smoky, and slightly sweet spice notes. • For more depth, add smoked paprika instead of regular paprika. • Adjust heat by increasing or reducing chili powder. • Works especially well on baked tofu, seitan strips, or roasted cauliflower. • It can be used as a dry rub or mixed with oil and lemon juice for a marinade. Health Benefits: This spice blend adds flavor without sodium-heavy sauces or added fats. Spices like paprika, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and ginger contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that may support metabolic and digestive health. Using spice blends like this can help reduce reliance on ultra-processed flavorings while making plant-based proteins more satisfying and enjoyable.
