I cook a variety of meals, especially a lot with fresh veggies and while the flavor is always good I have trouble choosing the right seasonings to kick it up that extra notch. What are your go to seasonings to KICK FLAVOR UP? Thanks.

A little salt, some pepper, New Mexico green chile, and some garlic cloves. The recipes work like this: Combine your dish with an equal amount of green chile; add some of the other seasonings in moderation to taste. :)Lynn

I recently found garlic pepper (rather than salt) at Dollar General and love it. Greek seasoning, garlic granules, Montreal Steak are all in my cabinet, plus all of the other standards.

Wow, since I am vegan we use a lot of spices. Chipolte Chili and Smoked paprika are my new go to spices, but old stand bys like cumin are right next to the stove. I use a lot of Oregano, Basil and Thyme also, Also I found some Hickory Smoked Salt that I treasure like gold.

My all time favorite for grilling veggies is Jane's Krazy Mixed up seasoning salt.
I love to put as many different cut up veggies in a plastic zip bag with olive oil and sprinkle on the Jane's, let set and then grill. Oh so yummy! For everyone that I've made this for love the veggies and ask what I put on them so I have a container of the Jane's ready for them to take home. Jane's have other varieties but this one I use the most.

Before my post I had never heard of Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick and would most probably never have chosen it from the large number of choices available. After several recommended here I had to purchase. I have now used and can say AWESOME! My HEB had a 5 for $5 and I'm one to never pass up a bargain. Also bought some garlic powder and McCormick black pepper. I've used Montreal several times with my sautee vegetable medley and am excited. THANKS!
