This is a lovely combination of herbs, more complex than I've used before, I can't wait to try it on my roast chicken! Made for ZWT 8 by one of The Wild Bunch

~Rita~, this is a fabulous herb mix! I tried it today on oven-roasted carrots and it was sooooooo good! All the different herbs really come through and go great together. The garlic adds a nice base of flavour for the green herbs and the combined mix is just perfect! I cant wait to try it on many other things. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your wonderful recipe with us! Made and reviewed for The Herb of The Month Tag Game in the French Forum May 2010.

I received this as a gift from Rita some time ago - I did thank her but I forgot to post a review - sorry Rita! Its a great mix for the home gardener. Although there are numerous recipes on Zaar that list herbes de provence in their ingredients, I have personally cooked and recommend #59916 and #61383. Thanx again Rita!

Thanks Rita! I was lucky enough to receive a jar from the Chef herself. Wow, the aroma is wonderful! We tried it on chicken this weekend, and it was so great. We just rubbed it on the chicken, then grilled it. Now I can't wait to try it on carrots from my garden. Delicious!!

Thanks Rita, what a great herb mix...We loved it. I tried this on giant sea scallops last night, they tasted so wonderful. I can't wait to try this mix on other meats. Very easy and quick to make. A wonderful use for all the herbs in my garden....thanks so much for sharing.
