Do you think diet food is bland? It may be. Many low-carb condiments are available, so you don't have to worry about missing out. A wide variety of flavors can be added to poultry, vegetables, and other foods to make them more savory and exciting.

Here are some low-carb condiments that you may use in your cooking:

1. Hot Sauce

Have a taste for hot and spicy foods? Then continue to consume it. Is spicy cuisine not your thing? It's worth a shot! Chilli pepper spices may also help reduce post-meal insulin surges, which may help prevent or control diabetes. Chilli peppers may also boost metabolism and fat oxidation.

2. Citrus Juice

When life offers you lemons, take delight in them! If you get limes and grapefruits, you should enter the lottery. Citrus juice contains flavonoids that reduce inflammation and enhance digestive health, making it an excellent health supplement. The vitamin C they contain has been found to help your immunity and contribute to developing healthy bones, skin, and other body organs. 

If you're looking for a calorie-free beverage, citrus juice is an excellent choice. Before eating your salmon, squeeze some lemon juice over it. Make a marinade using lime juice to tenderize the steak and give it a tangy taste. You can also use grapefruit juice to flavor your infused water.

3. Mustard

Mustard is a simple mixture of seed pulp, vinegar, and water. Occasionally, the seeds are not entirely ground. They're sometimes ground into powder or yellow mustard. South Beach Diet adherents love mustard since it has a low-calorie count and low carb content. To make a dipping sauce or salad dressing, you can use any liquid. And don't forget to stock up on mustard greens if you see them. They have a spicy flavor and are loaded with nutrients.

4. Oil and Vinegar

Oil and vinegar, like mustard, have been a well-loved cuisine pairing for millennia. While olive oil continues to reign supreme, it is not the only source of Healthy Fat available. Look for oils such as avocado, hazelnut, coconut, or sesame in your local grocery store. Each has a distinct flavor that goes well with a wide variety of dishes. If you're using oils as a source of Healthy Fat, then one tablespoon is the recommended serving size. But if you limit yourself to one teaspoon each serving, you can include them in your daily allowance of "Extras." 

5. Salsa

Tomatoes. Peppers. Onions. Garlic. Lime juice. Do you see a pattern here? Take advantage of the fact that pico de gallo and salsa are packed with non-starchy vegetables. Beyond the conventional dips and taco garnishes, salsa can be used to make soup, layer on meats or veggies, serve with eggs, or even as a salad dressing.

6. Soy Sauce and Coconut Aminos 

As far as condiments go, soy sauce doesn't need an introduction. It's salty, which makes it ideal for marinating meats, and it can give noodles and rice an authentic Asian flavor.

Coconut aminos are found in the same aisle as soy sauce. It contains less sodium compared to soy sauce and is made from fermented coconut palm sap and sea salt. It's also usually gluten and soy-free! It naturally sweetens spices, reducing any need for stevia.
