Everyone probably needs to spice up their life a little during these trying times. I know that I get in a rut where I’m cooking the same like six things over and over because I know them and it’s fast. I figured you know what, there must be an easier way to “spice up” my routine recipes… enter these awesome and unique condiments and spices I found on Amazon. It’s fun to make your fave vegetable but switch up the seasoning, try a new spin on a burger, or attempt to make your top takeout dishes at home.
Here are some of my personal favorites, like spicy honey and the seasoning I put on EVERYTHING. I also didn’t know until now that I need to try a hot sauce made from avocados, caramel to top popcorn, or edible pink glitter to make drinks extra sparkly.
Try A New Burger With Gourmet Seasonings
Doesn’t this tomato basil turkey burger look SO good?! This Urban Accents Gluten-Free Burger Seasoning Bundle also comes with a classic steakhouse mix and a smoky-sweet chile mix.
Yes, Blue Cheese Salt Exists
Dried blue cheese combines with sea salt into a creamy and tangy little surprise. Top off your pasta, top off a salad or even popcorn with this sea salt.
Add Bacon Jam To Anything
Anything tastes better with bacon! No need to fry up bacon for a burger or sandwich when you have this around. Plus, it has no added nitrates or nitrites.
Add Tajin To The Rim of Your Drinks
Taijin has really been having a moment lately. The blend of lime, mild chili peppers and sea salt tastes delicious on fruits and veggies… and now on margaritas, daiquiris, and smoothies.
I Put This Seasoned Salt On EVERYTHING
The Borsari Original Seasoned Salt Blend is full of my favorite herbs and spices: rosemary, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper (plus a little nutmeg). It’s so good on any kind of meat, potatoes or veggies. You can even use it in classic Italian dishes, like this lasagna.
Give Zesty Lime Dressing A Try
I definitely get stuck in a salad dressing rut. This Kraft Zesty Lime dressing goes perfectly with a taco salad or honestly any veggies.
Never Knew Hot Honey On Pizza Is So Good
There’s a brewery I like to go to that also makes pizza… and they have a pepperoni pizza with hot honey on it. It is ridiculously good. I got this to try and make either my own pizza or even a frozen pizza extra yummy. My chef boyfriend says it would also be perfect for fried chicken.
Put Cinnamon Vanilla Sugar On Everything
Yes, you already own all these ingredients, but this is the perfect combination of them! It adds just the right amount of sweetness. I think I need to try this in some coffee.
This Frank’s Sauce Is Like Ranch and Hot Sauce Had A Baby
Hot and cool together? Yes, please. It seems weird but it’s pretty much the same thing as dipping your buffalo wing into ranch dressing.
Season Away With Veggie Delight
I definitely get sick of eating the same old veggies in the same old ways… so this Veggie Delight seasoning is perfect. Use it for roasting, grilling or even just topping some plain steamed veg.
Use Pesto In New Ways
This Filippo Berio Classic Pesto is awesome to have on hand for a quick pasta meal… or you can use it to top a sandwich, top a burger, or even as a pizza sauce.
Spice Up Desserts Or Dinner With Dried Valencia Orange Peel
This McCormick’s spice is made from the fancy (and delicious!) oranges. Use it in place of orange zest in cakes and cookies or it goes perfectly with meat.

This Truffle Zest Makes Every Day Special
I have and I will put truffle seasoning on anything. This is my favorite I’ve found by far, way better than most truffle salts. I put it on eggs, potatoes, fries, pasta, pizza… and a little goes a long way.
Top Your Popcorn With Caramel
Good caramel corn is one of my guilty pleasures. There’s a candy store by my office that makes THE best caramel corn, but I haven’t been at my office in months… so I’ll be using this to make my own.
This Kimchi Mayo Is Ridiculous
I honestly will put this bold and zesty sauce on anything! It’s awesome on burgers and sandwiches. It’s a great dip for fries and chicken. And of course, it’s great on a poke bowl or a stir fry.
Add A Kick With Jerk Seasoning
Walkerswood Traditional Jerk Seasoning is so versatile. Use a little bit on chicken, beef, pork or veggies for a light kick. This is the mild version, they do have a medium if you really like heat.
Everyone Needs A Meat Rub
I was sold on this Chupacabra Fine Meat Rub as soon as I saw this mouthwatering sandwich. Use it on the grill for sandwiches, meat for tacos, french fries or veggies.
Edible Glitter Is So Fun
Missing going out to your fave bar? Use Brew Glitter to make your drinks extra fun. I know a bartender who swears by it! A little pinch goes a long way and it doesn’t immediately dissolve. Not only does it come in tons of colors but it’s also vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free.
Finally, Umami Seasoning For Veggies
Umami is one of those flavors that can be difficult to replicate for vegetarians. This seasoning is a flavor shortcut, so a little bit just instantly enhances soups, stirfries, sauces, and dressings.
Mushroom Simmer Sauce Turns Veggies Into a Meal
I’m always looking for ways to eat a little less meat, and it can be tough to make vegetarian dishes feel hearty. This Seeds of Change Mushroom Simmer Sauce brings in some great flavors to pair with more veggies and rice or quinoa.

Avocado and jalapeno come together in a medium-spiced sauce that seriously can go from breakfast all the way through dinner.

If you don’t already have everything bagel seasoning, you need it! You could actually make your own bagels if you wanted, but it’s mostly delicious on hummus, avocado toast, salad and eggs.

I want to make these wings right now. Bulgogi sauce is super yummy on chicken, steak, ribs, and even tofu.

This Seeds of Change simmer sauce makes it so easy to make Tikka Masala at home. Want to make an even easier dinner on a busy night? Just combine heat up the sauce with whatever leftover protein you have.
Frank’s Red Hot Is Now A Seasoning
The perfect blend of garlic and spicy cayenne pepper can now be even more easily added to your food. Roast some nuts with it, put it into a dip or put it on meat for the grill.

This chili sauce is inspired by the Godmother Sauce found in Chinese street food. It’s actually more medium-spiced than super hot and it’s great as a marinade, seasoning, tapenade, or relish.

Skip A Step With Garlic Olive Oil
I feel like most foods I’m putting garlic in, I’m also putting olive oil in. So why not just skip a long step and use olive oil that already has yummy roasted garlic in it!
Make Delicious Mint Treats
Chocolate and mint is one of my favorite flavor combinations. Watkins Mint Extract is my secret weapon for chocolate mint cupcakes and cookies. You can even use it to make yourself a peppermint mocha!
Make Your Own Seafood Boil
Have you ever had a seafood boil? If you haven’t, then you definitely need to try this. Zatarain’s Pro-Boil has all the spices you need, just add it to a big pot with crawfish, shrimp, crab, potatoes, and corn.
Hershey’s Strawberry Syrup, Where Have You Been All My Life?
Okay, maybe I did know that Hershey’s made other syrups… however, it’s taken me 30-some-years to try it. I’ve made so many strawberry shakes, used it on pancakes, and just put it on ice cream.
