Maple-Chili Glazed Pork Medallions
Pork medallions are quick and easy to prepare, and are particularly tasty with a maple-chili glaze.
Yukon Gold & Sweet Potato Mash
The addition of delicious sweet potatoes gives a nutrient boost to mashed potatoes. Double it: Cook the potatoes in a Dutch oven rather than a large saucepan.
Creamy Chopped Cauliflower Salad
Caraway and cauliflower are a match that brings to mind wursts, kraut and foamy, cold mugs of beer. Alas, not everyone loves that caraway flavor so leave out the caraway seeds if you prefer—the salad's wonderful either way.
Hungarian Beef Goulash
This streamlined goulash skips the step of browning the beef, and instead coats it in a spice crust to give it a rich mahogany hue. This saucy dish is a natural served over whole-wheat egg noodles. Or, for something different, try prepared potato gnocchi or spaetzle.
Bean & Tomato Salad with Honey Vinaigrette
This beautiful salad combines fresh tomatoes, green beans, red onions and dried heirloom beans. Recently harvested beans (and thus freshly dried) cook more quickly than the kind you buy year-round at the market. In the latter part of the summer, farmers' markets begin to sell a fresh crop of heirloom varieties that would be perfect for this salad.
Pineapple-Teriyaki Chicken
Grilled teriyaki chicken with pineapple can be made with just a few pantry staples. Although it's delicious when made with canned pineapple, fresh pineapple and its juice can easily be used in its place. Serve with brown rice and snow peas.
Chicken in Garlic-Vinegar Sauce
Braising chicken in vinegar and herbs is a very popular way of cooking in Mediterranean Europe. Often paired with sweet sausage, this is a gutsy, wholesome dish that can be made a day ahead. Serve with whole-wheat couscous tossed with fresh herbs and steamed broccolini.
These healthy low sodium recipes pack a lot of flavor.
When it comes to “natural” ways to improve blood pressure, most experts agree that eating a low-salt diet is a smart strategy. Laying off the salt shaker now can provide big health payoffs later. Studies show that those who reduce their sodium intake have lower blood pressure and are less likely to have a heart attack, stroke or other complications of cardiovascular disease. But just because you have to limit the salt in your diet doesn’t mean you have to shortchange your taste buds. We’ve hand-picked some of our favorite low sodium main-dish and side recipes that contain no more than 480 milligrams and 360 milligrams of sodium per serving respectively. These recipes are so delicious, we promise you won’t even miss it.
