Lo Sodium or no salt added, in other words, the lowest sodium content for Italian whole plum tomatoes - or whole plum tomatoes or whole tomatoes or you can sub. diced tomatoes... whatever you have or can find that is lower sodium. (I can or freeze my own in the summer from my garden)

Debbie - I can tomatoes, salsa, apple putter, pear butter, peach butter, we make our own various kinds of hot sauces and can them, spaghetti sauce, and soups, chilis, and stews. I make my own clothes detergent and fabric softener. (I love this stuff!) This year we purchased a green house and started out own garden plants including strawberry plants for 2007.
BUT - you gotta understand, this stuff comes in "seasons"... so sometimes - it's feast or famine. But I do all of this to help out my husband because I don't "work" outside the home except for occassional catering jobs and with two teens, a one income family is hard financially!!!! We do without a lot, but the sacrifice is sooooo worth it! God is GOOD!!!
