Skip the Salt, Turn Up the Taste

from Family Features

Here are some ideas for flavoring your food, instead of using salt.

  • Perk up any recipe with the zest of citrus or a splash of fruit juice.
  • Flavor sandwiches, salads, side dishes and casseroles with dried fruits such as cranberries, raisins, apricots and blueberries.
  • Sprinkle roasted seeds and nuts onto foods for added texture and rich taste.
  • Grind spices over food for a fresh shot of flavor.
  • Wake up any dish with hot peppers or flavor-filled, dried vegetables such as sun-dried tomatoes.
