Helpful hints
- Substitute whole wheat toast or a soft warm flour tortilla (fajita size) for sandwich thins.
- One medium baking potato weighs about 12 ounces.
- Double-cook technique for reducing potassium in potatoes: Peel potatoes and cut into thin slices, diced small or shred for hash browns. Place potato pieces in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Drain water then add fresh water. Bring water to a boil and cook potatoes until tender. Drain water and prepare potatoes as desired. The double cook method reduces potassium below 200 mg for a 100 gram portion (2/3 cup).
