Healing Heart Hint:

 

Canned beans and vegetables are high in sodium. If you are cutting

down on salt, try cooking your own beans. Soak overnight with a T of

baking soda, rinse and slow cook until tender in 2 C water to 1 C

beans. To quick-steam fresh or frozen vegetables, microwave in

plastic wrap about 2 minutes per serving. Add 1/2 t or less water or

soy sauce.
