And another question...

Grover and I are planning on starting the candida diet as soon as we get into the new apartment. We'll, i'm sure, pick up a cookbook or two, but if any of you have the time or interest, would you share your favorite recipes? I'd sure love and appreciate it. We're gonna try and make a serious menu and stick to it... plan very carefully, and whatnot, as this is going to be quite difficult for the both of us.

I ♥ Braggs. It's yeast-free, non-fermented, and wheat-free.
Ever notice that the woman on the bottle looks like she has a chinchilla sitting on her shoulder?

ps: I also used to make a lot of 1-2 ingredient soups and freeze them for lazy meals. A one ingredient soup involves veggies cooked in a pot of water, then puréed in the cooking water until "creamy" or "chunky". A two-indredient soup involves chicken broth + the recipe I already mentioned. You can add herbs to any recipe, as they have virtually no carbs. Avoid black pepper, cause it's got mold in it. Oh, and I ate a lot of steamed kale and a lot of broiled saltwater fish. (Freshwater fish and bottomfeeders are best avoided, due to toxins.) I also at a lot of porrige (covered in nuts or seeds!) in the morning instead of other breakfast foods. But I used quinoa or millet, cause they are very healthy and lower in carbs than oatmeal or grits or the feared but loved *toast*.

ps2: Jerusalem Artichokes (sunchokes), jicama, burdock root, and celeriac are worth exploring. The Jerusalem Artichokes, in particular, contain something called fructo-oligo-saccharides (FOS) which actually helps *good* bacteria live in your digestive system instead of yeast. The other veggies that I mentioned are just yummy low-sugar ones that are interesting to add to your new recipies.

I was never really sure what was in braggs. i have a great veg soup i make, and the broth is just water and braggs. i'll have to adjust the veggies for the diet, usually I use a lot of fresh corn and carrots and cabbage...
The only time I've ever tasted jarusalem artichokes was when i was weeding nora j's yard, and she had me digging up all these weird bulby things that smelled so good, i had to eat one. it was still kinda covered in dirt but it had a really nice flavor.
i'm getting excited about eating all these veggies.

Braggs is made from air and mystery (and soy). It's worthy of a Nobel Prize, if you ask me.
