Since most of us are on a No-Salt or a Low-Sodium diet, here is what I use instead of salt.

Salt Substitute

3 Bay leaves, broken into pieces

3 teaspoons dried minced onions

2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried marjoram

1 teaspoon rubbed sage

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Place all ingredients in a small food processor; cover and process until finely ground. Place in a salt shaker; use in place of salt.

A coffee grinder or spice grinder works for this too.

Makes about 8 teaspoons.
