HelloFresh Spice Blends Recipes - How to Make Them at Home (2024)

Looking for HelloFresh Spice Blends? You’re in the right place!

I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve just recently tried HelloFresh for the first time. I’m not quite sure what took Sarah and me so long to pull the trigger and give them a shot. Perhaps it was a little bit of arrogance, knowing we both could shop for our own groceries and come up with a recipe on our own. Whatever the case may be, we are so happy we finally tried them. Their meal kits have freshened up our love of cooking by giving us new recipes and ingredients we never thought of using before.

HelloFresh Spice Blends

Many of their meal kits come with packets of HelloFresh Spice Blends, made especially for the dish you’re creating. Now that Sarah and I have tried a few of their meal kits, we’re hooked! Not just on HelloFresh, but the HelloFresh Spice Blends as well.

When looking to adapt one of the HelloFresh recipes, we needed to know how to make the Shawarma Spice Blend. Unfortunately, we didn’t have it, so we took to Google to figure it out. After a little bit of digging, we noticed many HF fans were looking for DIY versions of the spice blends, too. There were a few on Reddit, a few on personal blogs, and a few on online cooking forums. Personally, I’m not a fan of having multiple tabs open, so I decided to compile as many of the recipes I could find and put them in one place.

Below you will find a list of all the HelloFresh Spice Blends we have found so far. Hopefully, it helps you out on your next recipe! I will continue to update the list as we discover more.
