I don't have any recipes at this time. The old thought was to take the salt
shaker off the table and use much less in cooking.
The new thought is to keep all salt out of cooking and use salt at the
table. Apparently the taste of salt is stronger when used at the table and
it doesn't get absorbed into the food. Case in point - there is the same
amount of salt in 1 oz. of potato chips as in 1 slice of bread. Which one
tastes salty?
A rule of thumb is to stay away from prepared foods totally. Your friend is
fortunate to have you in his life.

Subject: [CnD] Seeking Recipes for someone who must be on a low sodium diet
Hello everyone,
Last week, my very close friend Terry who lives with me was diagnosed with
Congestive Heart Failure. The doctor said it is absolutely crucial that he
maintain a low sodium diet. I was wondering if anyone has any recipes that
have low sodium in them? He must not go over 2,000 mg per day in sodium
content. Some of the things he can have are potato salad and tuna salad,
but
I looked at the ready made ones, and they are very high, containing about
520 mg of sodium per serving, which is 1/3 of a cup. So I am looking for
ways to make things from scratch that don't contain nearly as much in
sodium. If anyone knows of any books that are available online that
contain
sample menus for someone on a low sodium diet to follow, please let me
know
that too. I greatly appreciate any help. Thanks.
Chasity
