The Complete New Orleans Seasoning Experience

New Orleans cuisine is not built on a single spice — it is built on a pantry. Every serious New Orleans cook knows that different dishes call for different blends, and that the secret to cooking with authority is having the right seasoning for the right moment. The Sexy Spicy Pack gives you exactly that: three of Chef Diva's most essential New Orleans seasoning blends in one bold, beautiful bundle.

Together, these three blends cover the full spectrum of authentic New Orleans cooking — from the aromatic complexity of Creole seasoning to the deep, soul-warming richness of gumbo spice to the bright, plant-based boldness of red bean seasoning. This is not a starter kit. This is a complete New Orleans spice arsenal.

Three Blends, One Culinary Tradition

Understanding how each blend fits into the New Orleans cooking tradition helps you get the most out of every jar:

Creole Seasoning — The Mother Spice
Creole seasoning is the foundation of New Orleans cooking. It is the all-purpose blend that goes on everything — proteins before they hit the grill, into the roux before the vegetables go in, over rice as it finishes cooking. Chef Diva calls it the Mother Spice because it is the starting point for nearly every dish she makes. Bold, aromatic, and deeply layered with paprika, garlic, thyme, and cayenne, it is the seasoning that makes everything taste more like New Orleans.

Gumbo Seasoning — Auntie Becky's Legacy
Gumbo is the crown jewel of New Orleans cooking, and the seasoning has to be worthy of the dish. Chef Diva's Gumbo Seasoning comes from a recipe passed down through her family for generations — a blend that Auntie Becky perfected over decades of cooking for family gatherings and neighborhood celebrations. It is built for the long simmer: complex enough to develop over hours in a pot, bold enough to stand up to a dark roux and a full pot of chicken, sausage, or seafood.

Red Bean Seasoning — Born on the Food Truck
Red beans and rice is the Monday tradition that defines New Orleans home cooking, and Chef Diva's Red Bean Seasoning was born from that tradition on the Diva Dawg Food Truck. Low sodium and 100% plant-based, it captures the holy trinity of Creole cooking — onion, celery, and bell pepper — in a blend that works beautifully in beans, soups, dips, and stews. It is the seasoning that proves you do not need meat or excess salt to cook with authentic New Orleans soul.

Authentic New Orleans Recipes for the Sexy Spicy Pack

With all three blends in your pantry, here is a week of authentic New Orleans cooking you can pull off at home:

• Monday — New Orleans Red Beans and Rice – Slow-cook kidney beans with the holy trinity and Red Bean Seasoning. Serve over long-grain white rice. This is the dish that started the Monday tradition, and it is as comforting today as it has ever been.
• Tuesday — Creole Blackened Chicken – Coat chicken thighs generously with Creole Seasoning and sear in a hot cast iron skillet with butter until charred and cooked through. Serve with dirty rice and roasted vegetables for a weeknight dinner with serious New Orleans energy.
• Wednesday — Chicken and Sausage Gumbo – Build a dark roux, cook down the trinity, add chicken, andouille sausage, broth, and Gumbo Seasoning. Simmer for an hour and serve over rice. The kind of meal that fills the house with a smell that makes everyone show up early.
• Thursday — Creole Shrimp Étouffée – Sauté the trinity in butter, build a light roux, add Gulf shrimp and Creole Seasoning, and serve over white rice. Rich, buttery, and deeply aromatic — one of the most beloved dishes in the New Orleans canon.
• Friday — Seafood Gumbo – Use the Gumbo Seasoning to build a rich seafood broth with shrimp, crab, and okra. Serve with crusty French bread for a Friday night feast that honors the New Orleans tradition of seafood at the end of the week.
• Weekend — Red Bean Dip & Creole Veggie Platter – Blend cooked red beans with Red Bean Seasoning and olive oil for a bold dip, and toss roasted vegetables with Creole Seasoning for a plant-based spread that is anything but boring.
