Craft A Menu That's Right For You!
This blog is based on my personal experience cooking for my dad, who suffered from heart failure. We aim to be a delicious resource for those following a low-sodium, low-saturated fat, and low-cholesterol diet. However, what works for my dad may not suit your specific dietary needs or restrictions. Always consult your doctors and do your own research to create a delicious and healthy diet that works best for you and your family!
Got The Basics?
Then let's get into sauces! See below for my list of must have heart healthy sauces! Just chose a protein and a carb and you're good to go!

Dipping Sauces
Want a quick munch? What is quicker than a small bowl of celery, carrots, fries, or tots with a bit of dipping sauce? Here is a list of sauces I've amassed for the times when I just need a quick snack for dad! I try to keep the dipping sauces under 200mg of sodium or less. They are hard to find sometimes!

Our Story
Meet Our Family
4 years ago my family's worlds turned upside down when my dad had an emergency triple bypass during the start of the pandemic. We scrambled to adapt to my dad's new life and diet. With this blog, we hope to support families and their loved ones with heart disease and help them through this foodie journey. The wisdom I share on this website reflects years of slamming pots and pans in my kitchen, many failed recipes, discovering new foods and surprising successes! Its been quite a delicious (and sometimes frustrating journey). We hope that you and your loved ones will make use of this blog! Keep your family close and healthy!
