I ride one bike for just about everything, commuting, hauling stuff and day rides, roads and trails. I vary between narrow 28 and 32 mm. I prefer wider tyres in winter when I ride in the dark but the narrower ones feel a bit sharper for long day rides on the road.
Your hybrid rims probably limit you to 28mm. If you have 35, keep them for winter and get some 28mm for summer.
My current 28 are Schwalbe Marathon (not the Plus version) , they are generously sized for 28 and tough enough and unlike the Plus version are easy to remove.
