This is a hard question girl! :)

I personally like fresh herbs and use them over dried when I can.

I also like to use onion powder and this stuff I make called Veggie Pepper which is a mixture of Salt,pepper,onion,garlic,celery flakes, and red bell pepper. It is awesome and I use it on everything.

Answer 4

Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning;  I use it on everything (similar to seasoned salt) ... Kosher or sea salt (not iodized table salt) ... fresh ground pepper (not powdered stuff) ... dried dillweed  ...  chili powder ...cinnamon & ginger (for baking)

Answer 5

Garlic powder- it's garlicky, got a sharp taste

Parsley- has not much taste but adds color and interest to food

Ginger- Can be used in main dishes and desserts

Cinnamon- This is a great spice that is used in a lot of different ways

Lemon pepper- I use it whenever I'm feeling lazy

Answer 6

Basil, oregano, thyme, mint, & rosemary.

We grow these herbs in our backyard (much cheaper than buying them) and find them useful for almost anything.

Rosemary is wonderful on grilled salmon with olive oil, kosher salt and ground pepper. Basil is wonderful in a homemade pesto sauce. Thyme and oregano are used in a variety of dishes we cook. And mint we grow for mojitos.

Mint will grow easily and can take over your garden if not careful. Rosemary, oregano and thyme are pretty sturdy and may survive the winter. Basil will have to be replanted every year.

We also grow parsley, but we don't use it as much.

Answer 7

onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cinnamon

Answer 8

garlic powder, season salt, Italian season, onion powder, thats all i can think of
