Are you or someone you love trying to reduce salt (sodium) in your diet? Reducing or eliminating salt from your diet does not mean that you have to sacrifice taste as well. Keep the flavor in your salt-free meals by using one of these delicious and easy-to-make salt-free herb blends:

Directions for salt-free blends- Combine all ingredients and store in a small, airtight container. You may want to add a few grains of rice to prevent caking. When using fresh herbs, use 3 times the amount of dried herbs.

Super Salt-Free Seasoning- 2 tsp. garlic powder and 1 teaspoon each of dried basil, oregano, and dehydrated lemon juice.

Sassy Salt-Free Seasoning- 3 teaspoons dried basil, 2 teaspoons each of summer savory, celery seed, cumin seed, sage and marjoram, and 1 teaspoon lemon thyme; crush w/mortar and pestle.

Spicy Salt-Free Seasoning- 1 teaspoon each cloves, pepper and coriander, 2 teaspoons paprika and 1 tablespoon dried rosemary; crush w/mortar and pestle.
