I know they have low fat and low sodium cream of chicken and cream of
mushroom soup. I believe both the low fat and low sodium are actually 98%
free of either of those, so you could try using those for a casserole.
I usually just make a white sauce using Smart Balance butter or something
like it such as a low fat version of Country Crock. Then I add flour and
skim milk and use broth and spices to season it.
This is more work, but you have more control over how much salt and fat your
using.

Lisa, do you think I could do something like this in a casserole?
How about fat free soups to work with instead of or with broth?

Yes, I agree. Use lean meat like boneless skinless chicken breasts, low
sodium chicken broth, and add veggies like carrots, potatoes, onion,
celery, etc.
You can use spices like garlic, lemon pepper, sage, rosemary, thyme, or
just regular poultry seasoning that doesn't contain salt.
you could do the same with beef, only use low sodium beef broth and mix
and match the spices above and just omit salt.

I'll check for some recipes tomorrow morning, but if you just put some
chicken breast with some chicken broth and some vegetables in the
Crockpot you can hardly go wrong. You could get low sodium chicken
broth, or you could also put a turkey breast in. I'll try to send some
recipes in the morning.

I have a friend who just had double bypass surgery this past Wednesday.
She is going home tomorrow, and some of us would like to prepare meals
for her and her husband for a few days. She says "low cholesterol, low
sodium-basically, no flavor." I want to do this but am not sure what to
prepare. Can anyone suggest something? I'd really like to do a crockpot
or casserole if possible.
Thanks so much.
Sharon
