Tips:

  • Choose vegetable broth with the lowest amount of sodium per serving. “A little” sodium is a percent daily value of 5% (120 mg) or less per serving. “A lot” of sodium is a percent daily value of 15% (360 mg) or more per serving.
  • Use mono and polyunsaturated oil-based margarines, like those with olive and canola oil, to improve overall cholesterol.
  • Use whole wheat bread for a fibre boost to help you stay full longer.
