Usually garlic has been used as a salt substitute. Can she have garlic?

As a result of a recent bout of congestive heart failure, my mother has had
to go on a low sodium diet.  She is already complaining, after 6 weeks,
that
she's tired of it.  There are two reasons why - 1), my mother learned  to
cook
and has cooked all her adult life using little more than salt, pepper,
onion, lemon pepper, and Worcestershire sauce as spices.  I gave her some
dried
chives from my garden for Christmas and she had no idea what to use them
in.
And 2), she is primary caretaker for my father, who has dementia and  must
be
constantly supervised (she does have home health aides much of the day),  so
she has neither time nor energy to go looking for new recipes.


Can any of you good folks from this list send me (privately if you  like)
some simple, quickly prepared low sodium recipes that I could pass on to
her?
She does not own a crockpot, but has no problem letting something sit  on
the
back of the stove as long as she can make sure my Dad doesn't reach for  it.
