NOTES : SODIUM: 1. With REGULAR Swiss cheese: 219 Kcal 5.8 g fat (2.9g sat fat) 24% CFF 694 mg Na 80mg cholesterol 2. With LOW SODIUM Swiss cheese: 225 Kcal 6.2g fat (3.1g sat fat) 25% CFF 599 mg Na 80mg cholesterol 3. The chicken bouillon granules are adding a significant amount of sodium. Halving the amount to 3/4 tsp. will subtract 222mg Na PER SERVING! (Combined with low-sodium cheese the sodium would be now total 377mg per serving.) Substitutuing low-sodium granules might be even more significant. 4. We prefer more spinach so I always use two 10-ounce packages of spinach. That adds 17 Kcal and 52mg Na per serving. Nutr.
