My mother is going through this change too. I have been helping with recipes and posting the successful ones on my blog. soupspiceeverythingnice.blogspot.com/p/low-sodium-recipes.html
I buy no salt added tomatoes and other can products like beans, etc. I found if you puree the no salt added tomatoes with garlic, onions and basil it was as a substitute for pasta sauce.
The biggest trick I learned is that adding lemon or lime juice or vinegar to foods give them that bright taste like salt. dontsalt.blogspot.com/2008/09/low-sodium-pantry-vinegar.htmlmomsmorningcoffee.com/luscious-lemons/

This chicken dish was amazing. My dear sister a "salt shaker" loved it. lowsodiumblog.com/2012/07/sues-greek-roast-lemon-chicken-kota-lemonato/
I also love Mrs. Dash products. The extra spicy is a great substitute for cajun seasoning.0 -

Try skinnytaste.com for delicious recipes. I don't usually have high sodium days when I use her recipes. (and she doesn't post a recipe until it's DELICIOUS!)0

Check out Dr. Furhman's recipes. All are low sodium and those I have tried are delicious!0

Check out International Harvest. I've been eating mango slices, trail mix, and figs and have cut my sodium intake from over 100% daily to safely under the recommended sodium intake.
