Here are some of the ingredients I use in many of my meals:

Morning Star Farms
Veggie Sausage Patties 120 mg K 107 mg P 260 mg Na
Grillers Original 130 mg K 124 mg P 260 mg Na
Chik’n Strips 110 mg K 105 mg P 510 mg Na
Meal Starters Grillers Crumbles 100 mg K 4 1 mg P 240 Na
America’s Original Veggie Dog 60 mg K 165 mg P 580 mg Na
America’s Original Corn Dog 60 mg K 139 mg P 500 mg Na

Go Veggie Cheese
Go Veggie cheddar & provolone flavor slices
10-15 mg K (0%) 180-200 mg P (11%) 200-240 mg Na
Vegan Cream Cheese 8 - 50 mg 40 - 50 mg

Daiya Cheese
Plain Cream Cheese Spread 5 mg K 20 mg P
Mozzarella Style Shreds 20 mg K 20 mg P
Cheddar Style Slices 15 mg K 20 mg P
Dairy-Free Homestyle Ranch Dressing 10 mg K 0 mg P

The tomato sauce I use (very sparingly) is a sodium free store brand but Hunt's also makes one.

Since I'm homebound (not related to CKD) I order all my groceries from a regional store, Hy-Vee, and either have them delivered or one of my caregivers picks them up.

I'm still having trouble posting links and have not heard back from any of the moderators but you could google Morningstar Farms, Go Veggie and Daiya to find their pages online, each has a tool to find where their products can be found in your area.

There are other brands of vegan and vegetarian meat and cheese substitutes but these are my favorites.

I would appreciate it if you could check my math and my values and correct any errors I might have made. Also, if you try a recipe and it doesn't work for you, feel free to tell me.

Happy cooking!

Thank you so much for this list - My husband is newly diagnosed stage 3 - I do the cooking and everything we had been eating for a healthy diet is now on the "Don't List" - your list has been helpful while we begin to navigate this confusing and sometimes contradictory research on allowed foods. Btw, a nurse mentioned this to my husband- have yet to hear from his PC! Definitely switching doctors.
