I am struggling with finding recipes that taste good, are low in saturated fats, and low in salt.
Any help would be much appreciated. I had a heart attack at 58, active my entire life, still working at it. Good recipes are hard to find.
Thanks.

Hello,
I would take favorite recipes and gradually use less salt, saturated fat, etc., adding in more vegetables, whole grains, legumes gradually. You could also look for DASH recipes that are similar to dishes you already like, just healthier.

It's possible to retrain your taste buds, but it takes time. Eventually when you taste food cooked the old way it will taste too salty and rich.
