I ask because one thing about my "everyday" cooking is that everything sort of tastes the same. I have two "standard" recipes right now - stuffed peppers, and chicken roasted with veggies.

The food network is a great beginning to experimenting on your own. Anne Burrell, Alton Brown, Ina Garten ; any of the above will give you more information about using herbs and spices. It is just a matter of trying out different things until you get a repertoire down. Good luck!
