Who would have ever guessed that everything bagel seasoning would have taken the world by storm?!
Over the last couple years, there’s been a bit of a craze over the Trader Joe’s Everything But the Bagel Seasoning. I can see why with the perfectly salty, oniony, garlicky flavor.
I had to start making my own at home because the tiny spice jars sold at the stores were just not lasting long enough.
And for those of you who don’t live close to a Trader Joe’s and would love to make your own DIY Everything Bagel Seasoning… I’ve got you covered!
I’m sharing exactly how easy it is to make everything seasoning right at home with just 6 ingredients.
