My personal 'low energy season everything spice mix, use instead of salt for every savory dish when you don't have a particular profile in mind'
5 parts Kosher Salt
1 part smoked paprika
1 part mixed garlic powder and onion salt
1 part other spices
Other spices include, but are not limited to:
Black or white Pepper
Cayenne pepper
Cumin
Tumeric
Chili Powder
Dried Thyme
Dried Oregano
Crushed red peppers
The cool thing about these? You can change the proportions to taste.

Now, all of this? Mostly salt. Of course! The idea is that you're using this instead of salt because it adds flavor for basically NO effort beyond the initial making. This is often what a lot of restaurants will do, too, make a powder like this that lets them season quickly, while giving a flavor profile. It's why a lot of places have this particular flavor to everything they make.

I'm all for thinking more about how you season and spice stuff. But for a lot of people, they need to be able to reach in quickly and without thought. And I'm okay with that, and you should be too! Food should be a nice experience, and cooking can easily become ritual if you do things like this :3
