Showing You How To Give Up Sodium Without Giving Up Your Life
Macaroni Salad
This isn't your fancy pasta salad, but an old fashioned, county fair, family reunion kind of macaroni salad. Be careful in selecting the mayo and mustard, the amount of sodium varies widely. You can get sodium free versions at Healthy Heart Market, or try to find low sodium ones locally. Leaving out the eggs will save you about 25 milligrams of sodium as well as the cholesterol.
