I was looking for a shredded Italian beef recipe to make for a party I'm having this weekend. All of the ones I found called for Italian dressing mix packets. I use very few mixes for these reasons.
1. Quality & freshness of ingredients. I buy most of my spices organic and in bulk.
2. Additives. These dressing mixes, in particular, all have sugar in them.
3. Expense. We go through A LOT of food. When I can make something, as opposed to buying it pre-made, I do.
I used this copycat recipe, but omitted the sugar. Without the sugar, 1 1/2 Tbsp equals a packet. My plan is to use it in the beef, if I make it into dressing I will add a few drops of stevia for sweetness.
