Seasoning Mixes.
I have always tried to not use salt in my cooking, and during
much trial and error, I developed the following "blends"
that at Christmas time now, I put in little jars for gifts for
people.
You have to use dried seasonings if you want
to store it, but if you are just going to use it right away --
oohhh aahh they are incredible with fresh ingredients...these
also work FABULOUSLY for dips where you can add them to low fat
yogurt for veggies and chips, and for salad dressings with oil
and vinegar to your liking. My personal favorite is raspberry
vinegar for salads and these mixes. As well, you can use these
same combinations to make excellent seasonings for soups made
from BEEF or CHICKEN or HAM.....

Garlic
Sour Sauce
1 cup ketchup OR (1/2 cup ketchu, 1/2 cup barbeque sauce -- garlic
flavored>
1/2 cup golden sugar (brown tends to be too sweet)
1/2 cup water
1 package onion soup mix
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 minced garlic cloves (sometimes 3 depending on the mood !!!!)
I use this sauce in the slow cooker, but also
use it for a sauce base for chicken or pork.
Stir ingedients together over medium heat.
Bring to a quick boil and pour sauce over meat in oven dish or
slow cooker.....
Baste frequently in the oven method -- ensure all piece of meat
are coated if using the slow cooker...
This makes enough sauce for 3-4 strips of
pork ribs, or 4 small pieces of chicken....
