    Skillet Casserole?

    Ricks post on "Chicken Noodle Cassarole (If I misspell it please correct me) made me want to come up with a skillet chicken casserole using thickened chicken broth with yellow squash, onions and bell peppers or whatever I can find in the produce department, that I could make in the oven or even...

    Vegetable dip?

    Does anyone have the recipe for a vegetable dip that include marshmellow cream and I think sour cream? I've had it before but I need to know ingredients and amounts to know the sodium level. Any help appreciated.

    Hog Snot Ketsup!

    First, the reason for the name. After finding several recipes for low sodium ketsup, most altered from Mama's recipes, I was invited for a fried fish dinner. On my low sodium diet this was a no-no but I could at least cut down on the sodium on ketsup. Most ketsup bottles list a serving as 1...

    5 Ingredient cookbook?

    I have actually seen several called that plus 4 and even 3 ingredient but I was greatly disappointed. I wanted it since some recipes are dumb. I've seen one for rice pilaf that had 29 ingredients. After the rice, broth and oil the remaining was mostly 1/2 tsp of every spice in the rack...

    Are all recipes for bread machines?

    Almost all bread recipes I see call for "place ingredients in bread machine in the order specified by the manufacturer". Is there a formula to transfer that bit of useless information to something I can bake a loaf of bread with? The machine may be the way to go but I'm not spending that kind...

    Sodium free bacon bits?

    I know that sounds like a constrast in terms but I've seen sodium free bacon bits in a recipe before. I'm sure it's artificially flavored and not real bacon but it would really spice up a salad for someone who is restricted to about 1500 mg of sodium a day. Anyone know anything about this...

    Coating for fried fish?

    I'm looking for a quick and easy coating since I'm usually only cooking for one or two. Looking for very low sodium but I can alter almost anything to low sodium but I don't want something "bland". I've already fixed some of Mamas ketsup and am ready for some fried fish.

    Golden Carrot Soup

    The name was already there, so don't blame me. It came from the Dec 2009 Taste of Home Magazine and I choose it since I wanted anything creamy but without the milk (sodium). I have altered it for low sodium. They had it as a main dish but I use it as a side. The first time I made it (doubled...

    Tex-Mex Pinto beans

    I know I'm the new guy but I do have a few recipes I really like. This one comes from a Crock Pot cookbook but had 610 mg of sodium per serving. I have altered it greatly omitting the large portion of salt, the "canned" pinto beans and substituting the Mexele Chili powder seasoning for Chile...

    Low sodium mustard recipe?

    French's yellow mustard has 55 mg per serving and since I've been on the low sodium diet I crave this stuff. Use it on "Very Low Sodium" tuna and everything else. I've tried making prepared mustard by using dry mustard with water and vinegar but it always comes out way too bitter. Does anyone...

    Moo Goo Ghi Pan?

    I really like this Chinese dish but am afraid of the sodium level in a restaurant (soy sauce). Does anyone have a lower sodium version of it?

    Ocra and tomatoes?

    I've been having trouble with my okra lately. It all ends up "woody" and I was wondering if something could be substituted for it and still have the same basic flavor? I love okra and tomatoes but am getting tired of the texture I'm getting lately and was thinking of using squash instead. Any...

    Low sodium cornbread?

    I know. I'm the new guy who is asking all the questions but I really need to increase my limited menu of exceptable foods. Does anyone have a simple recipe for low sodium cornbread? The one I've seen includes cheese which would increase the sodium level.

    Herb-Ox and No-Salt?

    Does anyone on this forum use the product Herb-Ox, which is a powdered instant broth available in sodium free (5 mg per cup) or any of the salt substitutes marketed in my area under the name of "No-Salt" which is basically potassium chloride? I'm on a very low sodium diet because of heart...

    Meatloaf and oatmeal!

    Wanted to try a meatloaf using oatmeal instead of the bread crumbs (130 mg a slice). From reading several recipes it looks to be 1/2 cup oatmeal per pound of beef. Has anyone here tried the oatmeal filler yet?

    New to low sodium!

    Is there anyone else here on a low sodium diet. I seem to be the only one I know that is on this diet and actually trying to stick to it. Lets hear some good recipes.

    New to the forum from Louisiana.

    Just registered. My main emphasis will be on the low sodium site since I am a heart patient on a very low sodium diet. Hope you guys will give me some pointers.
