Well, it depends how low sodium you need, I guess. My diet is kind of by-default low sodium, because I cook almost entirely from scratch, and use only a little salt in things. (If I eat my own cooking for all three meals, my daily sodium intake is somewhat under 1000mg on average.)
Ah, hm. If you both eat meat, I suggest a tasty chili -- using either chicken breast or flank/skirt steak (whichever is cheaper in your neck of the woods), plenty of onion and peppers and spices. Beans, if you want to use them (dried is lower-sodium than canned, but a lot more work -- I'd probably leave them out).
And then most of the salt will come in with the canned crushed tomatoes, and you shouldn't need much more than that, what with other spices in & whatnot.
