Your cooking doesn't need to suffer because you can't use salt!. Acids such as vinegar or lemon juice can be used as a replacement for salts, and lemon pepper is an especially good replacement for salt and pepper!.
If you're used to using animal fats for seasoning, you'll probably want to replace them with other foods that are high in umami (the technical term for the "savory" taste)!. Foods with a lot of umami are Mushrooms, Asparagus, Fish, and Soy Sauce!. If you can find a no salt soy sauce, it would be a good addition to your spice rack!.
When I cook veggies, I end up putting a lot of cumin, chili powder, onion powder, garlic, basil, and oregano on my veggies!.
When you get a new spice, it's a good idea to try and use it in a lot of combinations for a while, until you get used to it!.
In short:
Acids (vinegar, red wine vinegar, or lemon juice)
Umami (Soy sauce, mushrooms, asparagus, or fish)
Cumin
Chili Powder
Onion Powder
Garlic
Basil
Oregano
P!.S!. If you can't use salt, spicy hot is the best flavor choice!. Spicy foods suffer less than savory or rich foods from a lack of salt!.
Good Luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on what you're doing with it!.
Roasting, I like Cajun seasoning, lemon/parmesan/garlic, lemon/cracked pepper/olive oil!.
Au gratin is good!.
Oyster sauce & soy sauce is good for sauteed greens!.
Greens, zucchini or onions are good baked in tomato sauce!.
Curried veg are great!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
