The July issue of Prevention magazine has ratings of various salsas they tested. Salsa certainly adds zing to food, and has the added advantages of being low-fat and generally low-cal. However, finding low-sodium salsa can be a pain. So, from among the 9 salsas that they gave the highest ratings to, here are the ones that are
Green Mountain Gringo Mild Salsa - 90 mg sodium per 2 Tbsp; available at natural foods stores and some grocery stores
Stonewall Kitchen Mango Lime Salsa - 35 mg sodium per 2 Tbsp; order at http://www.stonewallkitchen.com
Newman's Own Black Bean and Corn Salsa - 140 mg sodium per 2 Tbsp, which is right on the top edge of "low sodium" but this one has the advantage of being available in most supermarkets.
Robert Rothschild Farm Fiery Raspberry Salsa - 109 mg. sodium per 2 Tbsp; order at http://www.robertrothschildfarm.com
