Adding to yesterday's list of triads, here are some more simple triads in the key of C major, replacing the third note with either a suspended 2nd or suspended 4th:
Isus2. Csus2 (C-D-G)
I. C major (C-E-G)
Isus4. Csus4 (C-F-G)
iisus2. Dsus2 (D-E-A)
ii. Dm (D-F-A)
iisus4. Dsus4 (D-G-A)
iii. Em (E-G-B)
iiisus4. Esus4 (E-A-B)
IVsus2. Fsus2 (F-G-C)
IV. F major (F-A-C)
Vsus2. Gsus2 (G-A-D)
V. G major (G-B-D)
Vsus4. Gsus4 (G-C-D)
visus2. Asus2 (A-B-E)
vi. Am (A-C-E)
visus4. Asus4 (A-D-E)
vii(b5). Bdim (B-D-F)
vii(b5)sus4. B(b5)sus4 (B-E-F)
To spice up your chord progressions, use a suspended 2nd or suspended 4th instead of or in addition to the basic major and minor chords.
