Healthy and Tasty Super Bowl Snacks are the Ultimate Crowd Pleaser
~ Reduced Sodium Recipes from Executive Chef John Brand ~

GLASGOW, Scotland, Jan. 24, 2014 – With the Super Bowl XLVIII right around the corner, fans are gearing up to enjoy the game with friends and family. Aside from the big screen and football comradery, what else do people look forward to the most at the viewing party? The Super Bowl snacks to munch on, of course.   
As delicious as Super Bowl snacks are known to be, they generally pack in the salt. Yet, when the game becomes tense and that salty snack is sitting right in front of you, it’s hard to resist another bite. LoSalt® is a great way to resolve this dilemma. A reduced sodium salt that contains 66 percent less sodium chloride than table, sea or rock salt, LoSalt is perfect to use in Super Bowl recipes so everyone can keep on reaching for another bite without the guilt. 
“While many Super Bowl snacks ordinarily pack in the salt, LoSalt is a simple solution. Unlike other alternatives/substitutes on the market, it tastes just like regular salt so you’re never sacrificing flavor,” said Caroline Klinge, Marketing Manager for Klinge Foods Ltd, which produces LoSalt.

Executive Chef John Brand of Mokara Hotel and Spa and Ostra restaurant and companion hotel Omni La MansiĆ³n del Rio’s Las Canarias, both located on the River Walk in San Antonio, Texas, has created tasty, traditional Super Bowl recipes that utilize LoSalt. While Chef Brand embraces a locally sourced approach and “lifestyle cuisine” at his restaurants, native Midwesterner also uses LoSalt, a natural product with no artificial flavoring.
Whether you are looking to create the perfect game day sandwich, dip, meat or dish with barbeque flair, Chef Brand shows how it is easy to reduce sodium intake. LoSalt is a one-for-one substitute, meaning if a recipe calls for one teaspoon of salt, Chef Brand used one teaspoon of LoSalt.
