I am anxious to hear what you read that will be useful to your own situation. Remember that we are all individuals and our needs are different (as is mentioned in several of these resources).

Thanks, Rosemary! Will check these out ASAP

Re renal diet link, vegetarian renal diet
I noticed that beans are recommended here as well as soy. Because of high potassium content, I've been told to avoid beans. I also noticed that there's no mention of non-dairy cheese flavored products, most of which are vegetarian and many actually vegan and which my own nephrologist approved for me in stage 3 CKD.
