You can buy low salt breads. They don't taste as good as normally salted bread but I have found one I don't mind the taste of. Low salt is determined as 120mg/100g or less. Here's a list of breads if you are interested, which I buy at my local supermarkets (you can also make your own low salt bread just do google searches for recipes):
- Country Life Wholemeal
- Potts Swiss White Sourdough
- Potts Country Rye Sourdough
- Potts Rye (my favourite because it tastes like normal rye bread)
There may be others I don't know of.
Hope that wasn't too much off topic just thought I'd let you know that there are low salt breads out there if you are concerned about salt content.
Lunch ideas not using bread - zucchini or vegetable slice, soups, vegetable sticks like avocado, cucumber and steamed bits of carrot, zucchini, beans, broccoli, etc (which you could add some steamed fish or chicken with or even bits of cheese), pasta
Baked beans (massive hit here as well).
Gnocchi
Raviolli
Salmon or tuna patties
pitta bread with hommus
sandwiches
rice with crushed tomatoes and chicken
rissotto- I make it with salt reduced stock.
Will keep thinking
I give DD polenta a lot - its easy for her to hold & easy to eat.
Baked beans!
Cheese, chicken, strips of meat, eggs, did I mention baked beans? Roast vegies, baked beans, anything that is going really.
I dress up baked beans with mashed sweet potato or any vegies that you want to add.
(And you can get the 'no added salt' variety if you are worried about salt)
