A healthy change

Because Roo's grandfather passed away from  two heart attacks I am having a change of heart (pun intended) about my own health and eating habits.  Her grandfather was the kind of man that put mayonnaise on everything and covered his food in table salt!  I was told I had high blood pressure when I was pregnant but I have been watching it like a hawk now.  I do notice when I bake and eat processed foods my sodium levels are very high.  For this reason I am trying a salt substitute.

Salt-substitute herb blend 

  • 3 tablespoons dried basil 

  • 3 tablespoons dried marjoram 

  • 3 tablespoons dried parsley 

  • 3 tablespoons dried thyme 

  • 4 1/2 teaspoons dried chives 

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons dried paprika 

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary 

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons onion powder 

Grind all ingredients together.
