Sodium: All of our recipes are low in sodium because it is hard on kidneys and raises blood pressure. Most people should limit sodium to 1,500 milligrams per day.

Potassium: If you are on hemodialysis, limit potassium too, to 2,000 milligrams per day. If you are on peritoneal dialysis or short daily dialysis, limit potassium to 3,500 milligrams per day.

Phosphorus: If you are on dialysis, limit phosphorus to about 1,000 milligrams per day.

Protein: If you are not on dialysis but have kidney disease, you might benefit from a diet lower in protein. Check with a kidney doctor or dietitian for guidelines.

Ingredients

Based on 12 (2 meatballs each) servings per recipe.

1.5 pounds ground beef
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup quick cooking oatmeal
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Tip: Serve with pasta and sauce or make a meatball sandwich. Try our homemade tomato sauce for great flavor and less sodium than canned.
