I love Cajun seasoning on baked sweet potatoes and on scrambled eggs but I cannot find a premade mix that isn't extremly salty. Can anyone recommend a good recipe for a Cajun seasoning mix that doesn't rely on way too much salt to be tasty?

If you have access to bulk spices at your local grocery, try mixing the following to your own personal taste: black pepper, white pepper, cayenne pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, mustard powder, chile peppers, cumin, celery seed. 🀘🏼

p.s. If you have a food dehydrator, try lightly charring some hatch chilis over open flame and then dehydrating them after they're cooled. Grinding them into powder (+seeds = spicy) and adding that to your mix. πŸ§‘β€πŸ³

I never noticed before, paprika is bell pepper, onion powder and celery seed, It's the Cajun mirepoix. Makes perfect sense it would be predominant in the seasoning.
