    Do you need to avoid sodium for a medical reason?

    I season mine mainly with chilli powder and chilli flakes. Garlic butter on them is also lovely.

    Add garlic, onions, lemon juice, dried or fresh herbs to add some flavor to your veggies. Plain, steamed veggies make me feel sorry for myself...

    I use salt in many recipes (no medical issues) but lemon juice & lemon peel can sometimes be a good substitute. It doesn't work for potatoes, but yummy in green beans, broccoli, and cauliflower.

    I like spice "blends." Weber's Veggie Grill seasoning is great on oven fries. I like garlic pepper and lemon pepper. Mrs. Dash makes low sodium blends but I haven't tried those.

    Mrs. Dash has some really good options. Really like the original or the Sweet Southern BBQ table blend.
