I've been using a couple tablespoons of seasoned rice wine vinegar on almost everything raw. Not the best if you're super strict with your sugar and sodium, but those aren't issues for me.
I also make a sauce out if a red bell pepper, a quarter cup white vinegar, 1-3 tablespoons sugar, crushed red pepper, salt, and pepper to taste. Blend it until smooth, then cook until it's thickened slightly. A tiny bit has a ton of flavor.0 -
My new discovery of a condiment called "Ajvar", which is originally from southern Europe. It is basically baked aubergine and peppers + some more veggies and a little bit of oil mixed in.0

Sriacha and mustard! Either alone or mixed with Greek yogurt. I also make a ranch dressing and use silken tofu instead of mayo.0

Kimchee makes everything taste better!
Also salsa, sweet pickle relish, hot sauce, and balsamic vinegar.0 -
I'm obsessed completely with Sweet Chili Sauce right now.0

There's a bottle of Ken's Steakhouse light Northern Italian dressing in my refrigerator that's 45 calories per 2 tablespoons.0

I lived in Bosnia for awhile and Ajvar was very popular, but I just couldn't get up the courage to try it. Never seen anyone mention it on here
For me, Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce. It's a strong flavor, so I can use just a small amount

This sounds great! Do you get it at the restaurant or is it found in stores??0 -
I am totally obsessed with vinegars (I'm going to sound like Bubba from Forrest Gump here) red wine vinegar, seasoned rice vinegar, balsamic, white balsamic, white wine, infused vinegar.
Also I love spicy stuff, so: sambal oelek and harissa are a must. As well as different bottles of hot sauce and flavored mustards from specialty stores.0 -
Salsa (great for spicing up dishes) per 100g = 30cal
xtra light mayo 100g = 70 cal
Nandos piri piri sauce 100g = 80 cal
I probably only use 30g of sauce per serving so it's like 20/30 cals, they really help with pasta and chicken/rice/mince (ground beef as americans say)

I've been addicted to tomato sauce since I was a toddler. I put that stuff on EVERYTHING! (Everything savoury of course...)
I think my taste changed along with it, food just doesn't taste right without it to me, no matter how the dish is prepared.0 -

It is! I use it on chicken, burgers, on sandwiches instead of mayo sometimes, meatballs...
You can buy them at the restaurant. They sell all of their sauces by the bottles, 3/$14 iirc.

When I make my vegetable and ground turkey dish, I cook them with chalula chipotle hot sauce (technically 0 calories but I'm sure there's 5 in there or so). When it's cooked, I mix in a laughing cow queso fresco cheese. You end up with this creamy, spicy, reddish/orange sauce for 35 calories. I have to eat with a spoon.0
