Helpful hints

• Whole turkey breast may be substituted for boneless turkey.
• Spray slow cooker pot with nonstick cooking spray for easier cleanup.
• Frozen onion and carrots may be used instead of fresh vegetables.
• A very small portion of regular bouillon adds flavor.  Portion control helps keep sodium content within the limits of a low sodium diet.
• Serve with noodles, rolls, margarine and fruit salad.
