Hello and thank you for stopping by Mediterranean Book, our family's recipes blog. Here you'll find a lot of Mediterranean recipes, all tested by me, Valeria Forte, my family or friends. 
is there anything you can substitute for the beef bouillion
I agree, the sodium in bouillion ruins the healthy concept
I agree Chris. Low sodium broth (or in this case, bouillon) really aggravates me because it’s still about 25% of your max amount of sodium… which is still way more than your body needs to survive and work properly.
