HEALTHY SALT SUBSTITUTE
I need to change this description again. At first, I posted it as a healthy salt substitute, then someone rated it as unhealthy, stating celery was not recommended for someone on a low sodium diet. Then someone else rated it as healthy and gave a website to check. So I did my own research. This is what I found. According to the Heart and Stroke foundation of Canada, (www.heartandstroke.ca) celery is a healthy choice for people on low sodium diets. This is what they wrote in response to my question about it; "We are not aware of such claim regarding celery being an unhealthy food choice and acknowledge that incorporating 5-10 servings of vegetables and fruit a day is healthy for you and can help reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes and some types of cancer. Vegetables provide nutrients that are important for health." 1 stalk of celery (raw) only contains 40 mg of sodium. According to my husbands cardiologist, he is allowed 240 mg sodium/day (or foods with no higher than 10% sodium on the label). Also, according to the way the nutrition info is listed on my recipe, one serving is listed as 1440g. This is for the entire recipe of 2 bunches of celery!! If someone poured the WHOLE THING on their food, yes, perhaps that would be unhealthy. But who would do that? So go ahead and use this recipe as a HEALTHY SALT SUBSTITUTE!

18 FLAVORFUL SALT ALTERNATIVES - HEALTHLINE
From healthline.com
Estimated Reading Time 5 mins
- Garlic. Garlic is a pungent spice that boosts flavor without increasing sodium content. You can cut back on the salt and double the amount of garlic in recipes for tomato sauces and marinades.
- Lemon juice or zest. Citrus, especially lemon juice and zest, makes an excellent alternative to salt in some recipes. As a source of acid, lemon juice acts similarly to salt by bringing out the flavors of a dish.
- Ground black pepper. Salt and pepper are a classic culinary duo. Yet, if you’re looking to cut back on salt, simply reach for the pepper shaker instead.
- Dill. The fresh taste of dill, with hints of celery and fennel, makes it a flavorful alternative to salt. Dill is an especially good substitute in dishes with fish, potatoes, and cucumbers.
- Dried onion or onion powder. Share on Pinterest. Like garlic, onion offers a flavor boost to almost any savory recipe. In particular, dried onion or onion powder is more potent than fresh onion and can be swapped for salt in stir-fries, soups, stews, dips, and salsas.
- Nutritional yeast. Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast sold as flakes and powder. Known for its cheesy, savory flavor, it works well in popcorn, pastas, and grains.
- Balsamic vinegar. Balsamic vinegar has a sharp, tart flavor with a hint of sweetness. It brings out a food’s natural flavors, too, minimizing the need for salt.
- Smoked paprika. The smoky, spicy taste of smoked paprika is accompanied by a deep red color. Add it to taco meat, stews, chili, and nachos. You can also use it to replace salsa, which is often high in sodium.
- Truffle oil. Truffle oil is infused with edible fungi for a strong, earthy taste praised by food lovers worldwide. It’s so potent that you can use just a small amount in place of salt.
- Rosemary. Rosemary is a popular herb often used in dipping oils. Consider adding fresh or dried rosemary to soups, stews, and roasts, as well as roasted vegetables, dressings, sauces, and breads.

- Replace Egg Whites with Whole Eggs. To eat the yolk or not to eat the yolk? That's the age-old question. Thanks to recent science, however, we finally know the answer.
- Replace Flavored Oatmeal with Unsweetened Oatmeal. Sure, there are a few exceptions to the rule, but generally speaking, instant, flavored oatmeal is a chemical and calorie landmine—and one that's been stripped of its wholesome nutrients.
- Replace Granola with Nuts. While granola may seem like an innocent yogurt topper, it's almost always loaded with added sugar. To get the crunch you crave without the extra calories and sugar, top your yogurt with some nuts instead.
- Replace Jam with Smashed Avocado. If you typically kick off your day with jam-topped toast, you're missing an opportunity to consume some filling and healthy nutrients.
- Replace Cheese with Veggies. Whether you kick off your day with an egg sandwich or an omelet, swapping cheese for veggies is an easy way to dial back on sodium, fat, and calories.
- Replace Creamer with Organic Whole Milk. Not only are traditional creamers made with a nasty combination of water, sugar, soybean oil, and corn syrup, they typically contain carrageenan, a stabilizer that's linked to inflammation.
- Swap Bagels for English Muffins. Do your best to resist your neighborhood deli; there's nothing smart about this a.m. pick. One bagel is equivalent to roughly four slices of nutrient-void white bread.
- Replace Sausage with Bacon. Surprising fact: Gram for gram, sausage is actually healthier than bacon. But since bacon is easier to eat in moderation (it's cut much thinner and absorb less oil than sausage), we suggest swapping your daily serving of processed cylindrical meat for a single strip of pan-fried bacon, which has just 43 calories and 3 grams of fat.
- Instead of a Mimosa, Sip a Bloody Mary. While a mimosa is made with sugary juice, a bloody mary is low in calories and comes with healthy add-ons like celery.
- Replace Creamy Soup with Chili. Always avoid soups that are cream-based. Instead, choose recipes and cans that rely on pureed, vegetable, chicken broth, or meat and beans as a base; this will help to cut back fat and possibly even calories, says registered dietitian Isabel Smith.

- The Spice Hunter Chef's Shake Blend. Everyone needs an all-purpose spice blend in their kitchen. One that can act as a salt replacement and can be used in dishes that don’t call for a specific blend of spices, but could still benefit from a boost of flavor.
- Maine Coast Kelp Granules. Maine Coast Kelp Granules is a salt alternative made from just one ingredient: organic raw kelp. These kelp granules deliver iodine similar to iodized salt, but without as much sodium.
- Havista Dried Porcini Mushrooms. According to the manufacturer, Havista Dried Porcini Mushrooms simply need to be rehydrated in hot water to remove any grit before you can add their distinct flavor to your cooking.
- Santa Cruz Organic Pure Lemon Juice. Lemon juice is known as a natural preservative and can be a wonderful salt substitute. It also enhances the taste of a spicy food.
- Spicy World Green Cardamom Pods. Cardamom is a well-known substitute for salt as the taste of it is bold and strong, especially when it is combined with cumin and coriander seeds.
- Simply Organic Cinnamon Sticks. Cinnamon is one of the oldest spices known, especially in countries like India and other parts of Asia. Cinnamon sticks are a good salt alternative since they have the ability to provide flavor easily, regulate blood sugar level, and even lower cholesterol.
- JADA Spices Chicken Salt. Don’t be alarmed by the chicken silhouette on JADA Spices Chicken Salt, this salt alternative is in fact vegan. Made with sea salt, turmeric, onion powder, and garlic powder, this seasoning is gluten-free, soy-free, and MSG-free.
- Mantova Infused Olive Oil Pack. Infused oils are a great way to combine the freshness of herbs with the savory goodness of olive oil. Mantova Infused Olive Oil Pack, for example, comes with four organic extra virgin olive oil bottles infused with the following ingredients: chili, lemon, basil, and garlic.
- Spicemode Indian Spice Rub Combo. Add some fragrant Indian spices to your cooking with Spicemode Indian Spice Rub Combo Pack. This variety pack comes with three different varieties of seasoning: Vindaloo Fire made with cumin, peppercorn, and chili flake; Masala Herb made with garlic, lemon, zest and spearmint; and Tandoori Smoke made with paprika, coriander, and cardamom.
- Mrs H.S. Balls Original Chutney. Whether it’s homemade or store-bought, chutney is a wonderful way to enhance the flavors of a dish, especially curries, without using salt.
MSG SUBSTITUTE: TOP 5 ALTERNATIVES TO MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE
From foodchamps.org
- Salt (and Salt Substitutes) Since MSG is often added to a dish to enhance or bring out the savory, umami notes, many chefs can achieve a similar effect by just using salt.
- Beef Stock. For a savory addition to your meal without any added MSG, try mixing in some stock made of beef bones. The amino acids in this rich, meaty stock are filled with glutamates that give it the strong umami taste in one easy step.
- Cheese. Cheese is good on almost everything— and, as it turns out, a great MSG replacement. It doesn’t work with every type of cheese, but many of them help to add that deep umami flavor that dishes without MSG are often missing.
- Oil. Another great MSG substitute that works in practically every dish is flavored oil, which you can use to season, stir-fry, sautee, or spice up your dishes.
- Mushrooms. One option that works well to add some savory flavor to a dish is the proper use of mushrooms. While mushrooms are often a bold choice and certainly don’t work in every dish, they can make for a delicious glutamate-rich addition when used carefully.
10 NATURALLY DELICIOUS SALT SUBSTITUTES - SHE'S COOKIN
From shescookin.com
- Onions and garlic: raw or cooked they complement nearly any savory dish. I especially like caramelized onions for a deeper, umami flavor in stews, soups, any braised or roasted dish, tomato-based pasta sauces, burgers (beef, veggie, or turkey), meatloaf, pizza (allowing you to cut down on cheese).
- Herbs and spices: if your spice rack consists of Italian seasoning and basil, it’s time to expand your horizons – reinvent the dishes you’ve been making for years and bust a move with a few new ones!
- Lemon juice: not just for water or cocktails or as a salad dressing substitute for dieters, lemon juice perks dishes up with acid and a bright taste that is an excellent salt substitute.
- Citrus and citrus zest: in addition to citrus juice, the zest of lemons, limes, oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines kicks the flavor of sauces, marinades, and salad dressings up a notch.
- Vinegar – as I said before if a dish tastes “flat” add a dash of acid. Vinegar is the supporting character behind many a stellar sauce, salad dressing, marinade, salsa, or chutney.
- Infused oils: a wonderful replacement for butter, salted butter, and soy sauce or to add another layer of flavor beyond extra virgin olive oil. I frequently use truffle oil, blood orange oil, Meyer lemon oil, chili oil, garlic-infused oil, and oils infused with Asian flavors which have far less sodium than soy sauce.
- Beer and Wine: use beer and wine (and even coffee) to add flavor to stews, soups, chili, pasta sauces, and braised dishes on their own or instead of broth.
- Salsa and chutney – whether traditional tomato-based, sweet seasonal fruit, or a combination of the two, they are a colorful, fresh flavored accompaniment to grilled meats, fish, omelets, a wide-range of appetizers, cheese plates, chips, and crudités.
- Chiles and Peppers – low sodium fare does not have to taste bland, if you crave highly seasoned food there’s no better way to get that punch than with chiles and peppers, whether you like them mild or packing some heat, add them freely.
- Mushrooms – an unexpected salt substitute, mushrooms add a meaty, satisfying flavor to vegetarian and vegan dishes and can provide that elusive umami taste to Asian-inspired dishes without sodium-loaded soy sauce by using a mixture of caramelized onions and mushrooms sautéed in sesame and vegetable oil combined with a dash of balsamic vinegar.
