Kicking the Salt Habit

As summer is heating up so are the grills. Grilling foods can be a great way to cut back on fat but it is easy to increase the sodium in our diet by adding a variety of seasoning salts. The following is a list of herbs and spices to try that will still enhance the flavors of our foods without the added salt.
• Allspice – ground meats, stews, tomatoes, peaches
• Almond extract – puddings, fruits
• Basil – eggs, fish, lamb, beef, stews, salads, soups, sauces
• Bay leaves – meats, stews, chicken, turkey, soups, tomatoes
• Chives – eggs, salads, sauces, soups, meats, vegetables, rice
• Cider vinegar – salads, vegetables, potatoes, sauces
• Cilantro – meats, chicken, fish, tomatoes, rice, pasta
• Cinnamon – fruits, bread
• Curry powder – meats, chicken, fish, tomatoes
• Dill weed – fish, soups, potatoes
• Garlic – meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, rice, pasta
• Ginger – chicken, fish, fruits
• Mustard powder – ground meats, salads, sauces, potatoes
• Nutmeg – fruits, potatoes
• Paprika – meats, fish, stews, sauces, soups, vegetables
• Parsley – meats, fish, stews, sauces, soups, salads, vegetables
• Rosemary – chicken, veal, meats, potatoes, bread, pasta
