Helpful hints
- Reduced-sodium broth usually contains between 480 mg to 600 mg sodium per cup.
- One medium onion yields 1/2-cup diced.
- Count one serving as 4 ounces liquid, if you are limiting fluids.
- Rice milk or almond milk can be used instead of 1% low fat milk. Compare labels and look for the lowest potassium and phosphorus content.
