No Salt Blog

I hope it is OK to pass along another food blog link. I was looking for low salt recipes and came across this blog. Salt is hidden everywhere and is a hard thing to monitor. It looks like this person has done a lot of research and there are some good recipes posted. I wanted to share it with you all.
