Your food, of course. I was just wondering, what kinds of OP seasonings, spices, condiments, ect. do you all use to make your food more interesting? I have been getting bored with my plain food, and nned some inspiration! Katie

I've been using madras curry powder in my turkey/chicken + beef burgers.
very yum

I would not make it without FF sour cream! I bought some Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle seaoning today and made fajitas with it for dinner. Really good, really hot! I love curry too. Thanks for all of the good ideas, guys! I need them.

On the sour cream and salsa, if you mix it together you have what I call Mexi-Ranch dressing for your taco salads. Mixing up your fruits helps me a lot. The ones that are too pricey fresh( like raspberries or sometimes blueberries) I will buy frozen and find a way to use. Also, it helps me to start buying fish, scallops, or shrimp. They are very quick defrosters (good for forgetful people).

I now swear by Italian seasoning blend to make meatballs- and Mrs. Dash Lemon Pepper seasoning for chicken or fish
