It is no secret that seasalt, if taken too much, would cause a whole lot of imbalance in our body, most specifically to our blood. It has been well documented that we cannot take more than six grams of salt per day or it would cause us to have high blood pressure that can result to heart attacks. There are, however, low sodium recipes that you can go for to make sure that you will not have any problems in your blood, as well as your kidneys and gallbladder. If you are in to vegetables, you would definitely love the Ruby Red Layered Salad, which is a perfect dish for all those people under low sodium diet. All you need are 3 ounce of raspberry flavored gelatin mix, 2 cups of boiling water, 10 ounce of frozen raspberries, 1 pint sour cream, 3 ounce of cherry flavored gelatin, 8 ounce of crushed pineapple, drained, and 16 ounce of whole cranberry sauce. To start, dissolve the raspberry gelatin in 1 cup of hot water, add the frozen raspberries and stir until it is well mixed. Next, pour it in to a glass bowl, refrigerate for about 30 to 60 minutes. Then, spread sour cream over the firm gelatin and refrigerate again. Dissolve the cherry gelatin in 1 cup of hot water, stir in the crushed pineapple and cranberry sauce, then chill for about 20 to 40 minutes. Lastly, spoon the cherry gelatin mixture over sour cream layer and chill for another hour or two.

Everybody in the world, no matter what country you may be located, knowing some quick dinner recipes is certainly a must, especially if you are just living alone and working in an office at the same time. You wouldn’t want to always just buy take outs and call for food deliveries because they are both unhealthy and too expensive if you calculate all the accumulated amount in a week. Keep in mind that there are always some ingredients out there that are easy to cook because of their texture and features. Fish and veggies are the perfect example of this as they can easily get cooked even before you get to slip into something more comfortable.

Fish is usually easier to cook with soup but if you are not a fan of that kind of dish, you can always do something else with it. Just make sure that you have the proper ingredients immediately like olive oil, fish fillets, salt, pepper, onions, tomatoes and cheese. Just have 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a microwavable baking dish, put the ½ pound of fish fillets on it, sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoon of minced onions, and 1 whole tomato chopped and seeded, then cover it with a microwavable plastic wrap. Put it in the microwave for 2 and 1/2 to 3 minutes or at least until the fish flakes easily with a fork, turn the dish once during cooking. Sprinkle with cheese, if you have Colby and parmesan, put ½ cup of Colby and 2 tablespoon of grated parmesan on top. Recover and let the dish stand for 3-4 minutes before serving. It should give you a nice meal in 20 minutes or even less.

With veggies, stir fry is always reliable for any quick cooking. As long as you have onions, garlic and tomatoes, you can easily cook just about any vegetable that you have in your fridge. Just be sure that you have your favorite herbs and spices ready in your counters so you can easily have variation of flavors every time you would cook a vegetable meal. In case you are still feeling a bit lazy, you can always just wash them, put some of your favorite dressing, toss it in a bowl and you already got yourself a quick vegetable salad to enjoy for the night. You don’t need to eat too much at night anyway, especially if you are trying to lose weight.

Another location that I was able to visit was Spain and I was surprised that majority of the food they serve in there consist of meat and very little variety in vegetables, although, what really gets my attention in their delicacy is the one that doesn’t have too much meat in it. I am talking about the Spanish paella de marisco, or simply seafood paella.

I would rather have my paella with a lot of seashells, which would make me work for my food first before putting it in to my mouth, than eat paella valenciana, which is heavily consisting of meat and snails. I would certainly love to find either lobster or shrimp in it, together with tomatoes and well-milled rice. It is a lot more delicious and certainly healthier than its Valencian style counterpart, which has a lot of oil and fat due to the meat included in it.
