That sounds amazing!!
chicken breast cubed and sautéed with diced onion, rosemary sprigs and a bit of curry. Then added a can of tomatoes, mushrooms and some rice and brought to a boil.
I just looked in the cupboard when I got home and that is the stuff that jumped out at me. I like to fly by the seat of my pants it in the kitchen sometimes.

Hi Steve - Be careful of the brisket! It used to KILL me when I was still eating meat.Steve said:
Quinoa is kosher for Passover, and my mother in law found some kosher for passover Arbrorio rice at Wegman's. Being in NYC, you could probaby find both.
I'm also going to try making some muffins and baked goods with almond flour... It will be an interesting 8 days!

Chicken Enchilada and some Shrimp Chips with a diet Mountain Dew.
Mmm, a little cross-cultural there, huh CrohnsHobo? Sounds tasty. I love shrimp chips.
Ya it was a random lunch. Love Shrimp Chips too, definitely an acquired taste though.
Yeah, I was grocery shopping with my husband one time and pointed at the shrimp chips and said "Mmm, yum!" And he looked at me funny. Haha.

What am I eating now?
Whatever my doc puts in my IV. I've been in the hospital since Feb 7 for massive bleeding from my colon. Whenever I start to lose conciousness the nurses send me to the ICU for blood transfusions. I don't recall what food tastes like already.

Ooh, that sounds good - what is it?
Coke Zero
Macaroni and cheese
New potatoes with a little butter, salt & pepper (comfort carbs....it's been a long day)
That cake looks yummy. I'd have that with some custard, oink oink.
Angel food cake is similar to sponge cake, but it is different in that it only uses egg whites. So, angel food cakes turns out light and fluffy like "food of the angels." When made properly it can be quite sweet and delicious!farm said:Angel food cake is also called Sponge Cake.
Pretty bland, but most fix it up with whip cream and strawberries or the likes.
It's one of my favorites.

Great minds and all..... tonight we had veggie "lasagna" using eggplant instead of noodles. Vegan, using tofu instead of ricotta. It was really good!dreamintwilight said:Tonight I'm making spinach lasagna!
Can everyone else eat eggplant? I do really well with it surprisingly.
Yum Tonight was the first time I made it with spinach. I improvised some of the ingredients and it turned out pretty delicious!

Very excited about the Shepherd's Pie we're having for dinner tonight - made it with my favorite "meat" substitute -Quorn (which is a UK product but I can get it here at my local grocery store).
Brown Sugar/Cinnamon Pop Tarts!!! Yeay!!! A month ago I had a hard time trying to maintain a weight of 115 lbs. This week I seem to be absorbing all of my calories and I've quickly gained 15 lbs. Everyone says I look great but there's still a part of me that thinks skinnier is better. Oh well, the Pop Tarts are AWESOME!!!
Just had french toast, hash browns, and bacon for dinner. Haha.

If you have a blender you can make endless and nutritious cold drinks. I use frozen yogurt or yogurt with rice milk, banana's or any fruit.. make it in a blender and yum. Soda is bad for Crohns and causes gas. Other non acid juice is good, OJ causes D for some. Just a few things to help you.
I drink a lot of unsweetened iced green tea. For juice I only drink 100% apple or grape juice.
pumpernickel bagel w/ cream cheese. mmmmm.
Cheese, crackers, and peanut butter
Farm, how is it you always eat the things I love? Haha.

Grilled cheese, such as it is - sprouted whole wheat bread and rice cheese. It was actually quite delicious!
Seriously, Ames, we are always eating the same thing, haha. I had grilled cheese for lunch today!
I just ate a BBQ chicken sandwich (we'll see if it agrees with me) with canned green beans and tater tots.

I used to make a fantastic iced tea from my herb garden.CrohnsHobo said:
Dried Raspberry leaves crushed up a bit
Fresh young borage leaves
a few chamomile flowers
some lemon balm leaves
a few borage flowers for color and effect
I dried the young Raspberry leaves collected from the growing tips and stored them in a jar for this. The other leaves and flowers I gathered fresh. You have to be careful if you are in late term pregnancy with raspberry leaves as they can help get labour going and that might not be a good thing. Just thought id mention that as people often think if its natural or organic it cant hurt and that is not the case. And fresh chamomile should be used sparingly as it has some pretty profound properties, especially with dreams. The borage was a key ingredient in a lot of herbal treatments. http://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/b/borage66.html. Its an adrenal stimulant.
I really don't have much faith in bottled herbal remedies but fresh stuff like this is a whole other matter.
