Nothing is more iconic of summertime and family time then s’mores. "But," you say, "s’mores have…shhhh [whisper] chocolate." No worries here though! Chocolate never shows up on the “Do Have” renal diet list, due to its high phos content. A classic s’more with two graham crackers, 1/2 bar chocolate, and one large marshmallow has 97 mg phosphorus, 128 mg potassium, and 151 mg sodium. This does not mean that s’mores are out though.

What is Cinco de Mayo without a little bit of chips and salsa? “But, I can’t have tomatoes!” you say. And that is where this magnificent creation comes in, because you "can have" chips and salsa even without tomatoes! This wonderful low potassium recipe will make you forget that tomatoes ever existed in pico de gallo. This recipe is sans-tomatoes. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Even better, it is low in sodium! It pulls its flavor from fresh lime juice and cilantro and little bit of crunch from some fresh jicama.
Boiled eggs are no stranger in our fridge with Easter this month. What better way to enjoy all those boiled eggsthen whipping up some simple deviled eggs to snack on! Don't just stop at a simple deviled egg either. Deviled eggs are a simple enough so you can add all sorts of dynamic flavors to fit your fancy. We tried three new flavors for our deviled eggs: smoked paprika, curry, and fresh garden herb. All of them were fantastic although all very very different one from another. Alternatively you could use any of these same seasoning to make a delicious egg salad.
