[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So no one is using fresh vegetables at all? Just frozen or CANNED?? We can't have frozen dinners or even much take out because of my DH low sodium diet restrictions. I mean, yeah, we make mac and cheese but that's like my last choice since its nutritionally bereft. We don't want just pasta and can of jarred sauce -- my side of family has history of diabetes, thats why something like whole grain rice with vegetables in a paella is better than rice cooker white rice or frozen fried rice.[/quote] There's no salt added to frozen veggies unless you get the ones in cheese sauce or something. You can also get no salt added canned vegetables and beans. And reheated grains spike blood sugar far less than freshly cooked ones, so making a batch of brown rice or quinoa or and then freezing it in portions is both efficient and healthy.[/quote]
