I don’t follow any faith, but before/during a shared meal, my flatmates and me all join hands and say ‘blessings on the meal’. This felt weird at first, but I find it’s a really nice thing to do and is suitably generic (you’re thanking whoever you personally wish, whether it’s a higher power or simply the chef). A new addition (mainly for the kids) is to rub our hands together and say ‘rub-a-dub dub, thanks for the grub’
