My favourite broth cube is the Rapunzel's vegan sea salt and herbs. And don't be afraid to throw nutritional yeast into basically anything savory. You don't need a recipe to use it. I use it often in gravies, soups and stews, pot pies, and casseroles.

And I always base gravies off a roux and then whatever chopped up bits and broth I have on hand, then season with nutritional yeast and spices. It's not low fat, but it's awesome.
