We have a store that is nice but they are lacking in the prepared foods like the chili of which you spoke.

UL,

I tend to add salt to everything in her cookbook, except the seafood chowder. The Old Bay adds enough sodium.

Personally, I can't understand why anyone would want to go low sodium on the trail. However, I am guessing you could substitute potassium cloride.

chili:
I'm with you on the low-sodium diet on the trail, but in Sarbar's defense, she has some health issues that requires her to remain on a strict low-salt diet, even on the trail. Subsequently, she tends to think that everyone should watch their sodium intake.

Overall, I have been impressed with her cookbook.

These days, you can make just about anything in freezer bags. Last Thanksgiving, I spent the weekend at Cumberland Gap and had turkey with dressing and gravy, peas with butter, mashed potatoes, and brownies (baked in a pan by the fire)(although it was mixed in a freezer bag and "poured" into the pan).
