Thank you for the comment!
Being on ...Hi Rebecca!<br />Thank you for the comment! <br />Being on an AI protocol is, often times, difficult since you are eliminating LOTS of common foods. However, it's certainly doable (as I did it for 40 days!) and, with a bit of patience and resilience, it becomes easier to deal with.<br />There is a recipe I used for meatballs, spaghetti squash, etc. that used carrots and beets. I know what you're thinking; "Beets?!" But it was actually good!<br />I wish I could remember where I found it to give them credit, but I know there are recipes out there similar to this one. I know there are similar recipes out there like this:<br /><br />Nightshade Free Sauce<br />Ingredients:<br />-4 cups chopped butternut squash <br />-2 cups chopped carrots<br />-1 chopped red onion<br />-1 cup sliced celery<br />-1 cup chopped red beets<br />-2 tablespoons melted coconut oil<br />-1 teaspoon salt + 1/4 teaspoon salt <br />-1 tablespoon fresh diced garlic<br />-1/2 teaspoon dried basil<br />-1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning<br />-1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar <br /><br /> How To:<br />1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees <br />2. In a large roasting pan (I use a large glass Pyrex) combine the chopped butternut, chopped carrots, chopped red onion, chopped celery, chopped red beets, 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and fresh garlic. Mix all the ingredients together and roast for 40 minutes. You want the veggies to sort of caramelize - this provides a nice sweet flavor to the sauce. <br />3. Transfer all the veggies into a blender. To the blender also add the additional 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and the apple cider vinegar. Blend until smooth and everything is well incorporated. <br />4. Serve immediately or warm on the stove top.<br />Serves 6Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109482948590618488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819803835964093720.post-36379449942357731722014-03-03T09:47:32.567-08:002014-03-03T09:47:32.567-08:00Maria, this looks easy (always my goal) and delici...Maria, this looks easy (always my goal) and delicious. I have my husband on the autoimmune protocol of paleo. What would you suggest to use to replace the tomatoes. I would love to be a good enough cook to taste something and know what additional thing it needs or what to replace something with. But I am not, so I REALLY appreciate those people who can do that and will share their skills with the rest of us!<br />Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13600923898257681810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819803835964093720.post-68680628232965962892014-02-24T12:07:59.924-08:002014-02-24T12:07:59.924-08:00Shredded zucchini... or you can make zucchini nood...Shredded zucchini... or you can make zucchini noodles using a spiralizer.

Congrats on your decision to steer away from the standard American diet!<br />Using coconut flour is a great alternative and I most definitely suggest it for folks with nut allergies. Adjust the amount used since it requires much less coconut flour. Use half the amount suggested for almond flour. I don't recommend brown rice flour at all. Check out my new blog (www.optimalnutrition1.blogspot.com) and search for "Brown rice vs white rice" to understand why. You can even skip the flour altogether and use cauliflower "rice" instead, which I have done. Do a search for cauliflower rice under Paleo searches if you have not heard of this. It's delicious! Good luck! :-)Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109482948590618488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819803835964093720.post-23713825519989820302014-01-19T10:08:51.994-08:002014-01-19T10:08:51.994-08:00Lynz, as described in directions, mix all ingredie...Lynz, as described in directions, mix all ingredients together, except tomatoes.

We have been eating the traditional American diet all our lives and it resulted in a heart attack and stroke (thankfully minor!) in my 50 year old husband. We are having a hard time because I have a child with allergies (soy, nuts, shellfish, corn...) Wondering if brown rice flour or coconut flour will work. I don't think I want to chance anything with almond in it.
