The Gift Exchange

Due to extenuating circumstances, my husband has been put in a low sodium diet. At first, it was pretty difficult to find things other than vegetables and rice for dinner. But recently, we have become quite creative when coming up with low sodium recipes. He loads his food up with a lot of peppers and onions, which really is not my cup of tea. So we’ve been playing with using different herbs and seeing how they work with each other. I was thrilled when I saw the Green Basics Organic Spices gift. Not only are they organic but they have also made Oprah’s “O” List. And if Oprah likes it, I like it!

Included in this gift are dill weed, basil, rosemary, tarragon, thyme and my personal favorite, oregano. This gift also celebrates the “More Herbs, Less Salt Day” on August 29th. August really is the perfect time to celebrate such a day since most herbs are at their peak for harvest. So if you or someone you know is on a low sodium diet, I suggest taking a look at this gift. It’s a perfect way to add flavor to your food while keeping to a healthy, low sodium diet.
