THERE ARE NUMEROUS CHOICES IN FOOD PRODUCTS THAT ARE LOW SODIUM. THE NEW RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DAILY SODIUM INTAKE ARE AROUND 1500 MG. USE FRESH PICO DE GALLO INSTEAD OF SALSA. CHOOSE A LOW SODIUM BROTH OR MAKE YOUR OWN. YOU CAN STILL EAT GREAT FOOD WITH A LITTLE MODIFICATION OF INGREDIENTS. WORK WITH THIS, BE CREATIVE!

Love this recipe cause its so quick & easy. I like my soup with a smoky flavor so I add 1 tsp of cumin powder and a dash of Smoked Paprika to kick up the flavor. I have also made it using canned chunky white chicken and it works.

This soup is wonderful on a cold and rainy day. It really is a meal, along with a salad and crusty baguette. Even the kids love it - Yum! To flotsam1 - use sodium-free or low-sodium products!!!

Almost 1300 mg. of sodium in ONE serving? Really? Can you say "Hypertension"? Almost every recipe on this site is overloaded with salt. Unsubscribe me, please....
