Helpful hints

• Look for reduced sodium broth containing 500 milligrams sodium or less per 1 cup serving. Avoid low sodium broth that contains potassium chloride—it’s very high in potassium.  Recommended brands include Health Valley No Salt, Fat Free Chicken Broth® (800-423-4846), Kitchen Basics Natural Chicken Stock®, and Swanson 50% Less Sodium Chicken Broth®.
• If desired, make gravy with pan broth.  In a small saucepan mix 1 tablespoon flour with small amount cold water to dissolve.  Turn heat to medium high and stir in broth from slow cooker.  Continue stirring 3 to 4 minutes until gravy thickens.
