def mrs. dash seasonings. they have so many different varieties now. and they all are salt free. but watch other seasonings, i know alot of people who think they are using a salt free seasoning when in fact the number one ingredient on the bottle is salt. but mrs. dash is really good. i always have a ton of them and i use them up every month
use lemon or lime juice instead of salt for flavor. It's really good and goes well with a lot of stuff, also, in you organic foods section at Wal-Mart or other grocery stores, look for ';Melissa's veggie rub'; It's really good and has little to no salt, try also Mrs. Dash's salt free seasonings. Good luck, have fun experimenting and sorry to hear about your Grandmother!
This one is really good, just substitue garlic powder for garlic salt. You can also add some Mrs Dash seasoning if you can find it, it has no salt but a lot of flavor.





Chicken and Dumplings





1 whole chicken


1 bay leaf


2 tsp garlic salt


6 black peppercorns


6 cups of water


1 cup baby carrots


1 package refrigerator biscuits (10 鈥?12)





Place chicken in crock pot and add everything except carrots. Cook on low for about 8-10 hours. Remove chicken and de-bone. Pour broth into large pot on stove and heat until boiling. Add carrots and cook for 30 minutes. Thicken broth with cornstarch or flour mixed with cold water. Tear refrigerator biscuits into 3-4 pieces each and drop into boiling broth, lower heat and cover. Simmer for about 5 minutes, until biscuits puff up. Add chicken and carrots, stir, and serve.
