    Cinnamon. Makes things sweet without calories! I also used seasoned salt on just about every savory dish.

    Weber - All Natural Boston Bay Seasoning

    If you go to the website, it lists 5 calories per 1/4 tsp, or 20 calories a tsp. I grill 2 pieces of 4 oz fish, like Swai fish, and 1 tsp covers both of them real well.

    For savory dishes, garlic is my go to (like the Frank's Red Hot lady I put that s**t in everything!) and for sweet dishes I love good old fashioned Quebec maple syrup.

    If $$$ was unlimited I would put saffron in everything. I was fortunate to receive a 100g container of Iranian saffron from a fellow grad student, however I only break it out for my special occasion coconut saffron rice.

    Oh I forgot! I love bay leaves in stuff that has to simmer for a while, and thrown in with my pot roasts.

    It just adds a unique flavor that you can't really pick out when it's there, but you notice when it's not.

    I also LOVE Cholula Hot Sauce. I can DRINK the stuff!

    Does onion count? Probably not? I don't think I care. I can't live without an onion. I put it in everything. EVERYTHING.
