Salsas
There’s almost nothing salsa can’t do—and there’s one for every occasion. Stock up on fruity varieties, Southwest styles with beans & corn, salsa verde… even basic tomato salsa has its place!Pairing idea: Cook whole or chopped chicken breast with salsa in a skillet. YUM.
Mustards
Honey, Dijon, yellow, creamy, whole-grain brown… and that’s just the start! Tons of brands are putting fresh spins on the classics—Plochman’s, Beaver Brand, Ingelhoffer, and more.Pairing idea: Spread mustard over raw fish before baking for a major flavor boost.
Hot Sauces
They’re not just for those who want to torch their taste buds! These days, there are many options that prioritize flavor over heat. Build a tasty lineup starting with Buffalo, sweet & garlicky sriracha, smoky styles, and classic taco sauce.Pairing idea: Split peeled hard-cooked eggs in half and hit them with the hot sauce du jour.
Marinades
No time to marinate? Use bottled marinades as simmer sauces or flavor shortcuts right in the skillet—and not just for meat!Pairing idea: Toss your protein and veggies in marinade, then roast everything on a sheet pan.
Barbecue Sauces
Skip the assumption that BBQ sauce is always overly sweet! Some are sweet, some tangy, some have a mustard kick. Check the ingredients and nutrition info before you buy. Stubb’s has an especially great lineup.Pairing idea: Mix BBQ sauce into ground meat and bake into a quick mini meatloaf.
Flavored Vinegars
From fancy bottles to store brands, a little vinegar goes a long way. Seasoned rice vinegar balances tartness with a touch of sugar and salt, while balsamic brings natural sweetness and depth without the harsh bite of plain varieties.Pairing idea: Sauté greens (like kale, spinach, or Swiss chard) and finish with a splash of vinegar.
