Food Ideas

Hi,

Trying to gluten free, dairy free and avoid high lectin foods as all these seem to be causing issues.

Any ideas on staple foods I can eat all I want of?

Tried fruit but that seriously messed with my stomach (i.e. just fruit, it's fine if I eat with other things).

*sigh* if only there was a safe nutrition pill or something that I can just eat and not worry about diet, I would do it. Wouldn't care about losing variety and enjoyment of food, it's just the constant worry and hassle that's annoying, not to mention the symptoms!

carrots

meat of any kind

pees ?

greenbeans ?

Look at what is all natural, perhaps that would give you a good start.

I sympathize. And I've also wished for a "food pill".

Can you eat meat? I'm presuming that since you went on a fruit diet you don't particularly care for it.

I don't like meat, but my body needs it, so I usually marinate in citrus juice of some type (orange, lime, lemon,, seasonings (S&P, cumin, mustard, chili, etc.) and grill it. It's best if you do the marinade early, like when you leave for work in the morning. Lamb is good if you marinate it with lots of rosemary, lemon, mustard and olive oil.

Fresh fish (or even canned tuna) can be good over fresh greens and a good viniagrette. (Which can just be fresh squeezed lemon or lime mixed with olive oil if you don't like or can't tolerate vinegar.

I made Julia Child's potato leek soup last weekend. (You can swap the leeks for chopped onion.) The soup was great.

Check out the thread on the recipes forum for "What are you cooking tonight?" There's a world of possibilites despite your dietary limitations.

I believe both peas and green beans would still be high in lecithins. If you have issues with fruit, you may need a low fructose diet.

Fruit lower in fructose:

      Yeah, that one is always hard, especially since life seems to revolve around food. That happened to me 2 weeks ago with hibachi and with Hungarian hot dogs. I used to be more picky, but now I would love to try all the things if I could. On the bright side, my husband is absolutely wonderful with it, and his mom often brings a few certified gluten-free things to family get-togethers just for me (and tries to make sure main dishes are safe too). Having the people closest to you be supportive can make a huge difference.

      I hear you. My extended family is very good about factoring in my celiac disease safety needs when making family celebration meal plans but sometimes it breaks down in the spur of the moment decisions to "Oh, let's go out and get some teriyaki" or the like. Especially when my brother in law comes into town 'cause he's pretty particular about what he likes to eat. So, sometimes I just say, "You guys go ahead without me. I'll find some leftovers." But, still, I admit to feeling a little left out at such times and a little like a 5th wheel.

      Same, and I appreciate your comments. I just needed to get it off my chest. Sometimes, even when its a genuine mistake, it can feel all too hurtful and I didn't want to go back to work tomorrow still in my feelings.

      Yes, probably slipped his mind. Grace is in order here is my thought.

      I should have added that, while I dont have access during the meetings, I do as soon as I leave them (same for him) so I would have seen before I even left work. He has my number since we've needed to coordinate by cell a few times for work and other stuff. I usually have a protein bar or two in my desk for emergencies so I could have grabbed one of those and gone to meet them at the right restaurant.  Someone else decided on the change of restaurant and it must have slipped his mind that I wasn't coming back to my desk.
