I’ve always loved salty foods. One of my favorites is popcorn with seasoning salt. I know it’s not good for me and I’ve found a great alternative for cooking (thought I’ve yet to try it on popcorn). Mrs. Dash seasonings are salt-free and preservative free, thus a much healthier option for bringing flavor to all sorts of foods. Here are a couple recipes using Mrs. Dash Garlic & Herb Blend which my family loves on baked potato wedges or fried potatoes:
