A word about sodium...

The best thing about cooking from home is that you control the quality and quantity of ingredients, including salt. If your doctor has advised you to follow a low sodium diet, many of these recipes can be easily adapted.

When choosing packaged goods, such as canned beans, broth, or condiments, choose "no salt added" or "low sodium" versions whenever possible. Canned beans and vegetables can also be rinsed to remove about 40% of the sodium. 

In recipes that call for added salt, you can either reduce or omit entirely. Experiment with adding citrus, vinegar, fresh or dried herbs, infused olive oil, onions, garlic, ginger, pepper, and spices to enhance the natural flavors of the dish.
