Beef Casserole Seasoning Mix

This mix makes the best casseroles. It's called beef casserole seasoning, but I've used it on lamb too and it's just as delicious. This replaces the packets of casserole seasoning you can buy - they are expensive, mostly filler with very little actual herbs and spices in them, as well as a lot of stuff you don't need - anti-clumping agents, preservatives, colours and so on. 

Using the contents of your spice cupboard you can make something even better - and far cheaper when you do the math!
