2.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Was Hoping For, April 4, 2005

This review is from: American Heart Association Low-Salt Cookbook, Second Edition: A Complete Guide to Reducing Sodium and Fat in Your Diet (Hardcover)
This cookbook contains a decent variety of recipes, but seems more geared towards low fat cooking than low sodium cooking. If you're casually trying to reduce sodium a bit this may be fine, but if you're on a very strict diet many of the recipes probably won't be acceptable. I found many of the recipes a bit unimaginative and lacking excitement, being perhaps geared towards people who find mild picante sauce too spicy. And the book itself sounds like it was written by a government lawyer trying to avoid litigation with frequent use of awkward terms such as "acceptable vegetable oil" in recipes. There are better choices out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tasting Low Salt Recipes, May 24, 2003
Over-salted food is everywhere and one reason people get too much salt in their food is that many "cooks" think seasoning is salting.

This book has a wide variety of great tasting, healthy recipes. Anyone interested in becoming a good cook can use it to learn how to really season foods.

The book is a boon to those who know they need to lower their salt and a good idea for those who don't know it yet.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but not great, January 2, 2003
I was looking for a cookbook with relatively light, relatively low-fat recipes. This book delivered what I was looking for, but nothing more. Some of the recipes are good, but some tend to be a little bland and somewhat involved to prepare.
