ha... it was really all that's in the fridge. I had some leftover shredded mexican blend cheese and I microwaved it between two flour tortillas. Then I like to cut it into triangles and dip in sour cream. One of those throw together type snacky meals. I'd be down with soup. And I love Ritz crackers. Sure... we'll trade :)

That sounds like a good and easy quick snack to make. (with little clean up!!) I think I am going to pick those things up when I go to the supermarket.
 
-Grilled chicken (marinated in a little organic honey, crushed fennel seeds, crushed coriander seeds, sea salt & cracked black pepper, coconut oil).
-Thai Jasmine Rice
-Homemade 'Winter' Coleslaw (Fennel, Carrot, Red Cabbage, Onion, Radish, Organic Bio-Live Natural Yoghurt instead of mayo, half a teaspoon of english mustard, sea salt & cracked black pepper, half the juice of a lemon, and olive oil)

Not sure how the coleslaw is gonna sit with me, its all raw obviously but sliced very thin and im chewing it a lot.

:)
 
Banana. I eat one almost everyday. I miss eating healthy fruits and veggies. Bananas are the only fruit I am not afaird to eat.
 
I had oatmeal for breakfast,
Ham and potato chowder for lunch. (I made a big batch with leftovers and I have lots in the freezer)
Chicken, stuffing, broccoli, and spinach salad for supper.
2 chocolate covered graham cookies for dessert with my daughter.
 
had baked hashbrowns, 2 eggs and a peeled/seeded tomato with sour cream. something different from my usual and it was super tasty :)
 
Anyone who can have cheese in there diet while dealing with Crohns is doing pretty good. Lots of pasta. Tough to sneak in junk food though I do.
 
Had some garlic/cheese knots - kids of a sweet bread vs. savory....good/different. Now if I can just keep out of the bag so I have some to take home for dinner!

Not trying to be picky or mean, but I eat cheese. I am not doing pretty good. Actually it can be a lot better, thats for sure. It can also be a lot worse and has been in the past.

You have to remember .....everyone is different and tolerating food can vary throughout each person whether they are having difficulty with this medical condition or not.
 
Well technically not eating it right now, but I had my new favourite lunch today- grilled ham and cheese sandwich with poached eggs on top. Except I burned the top slice of bread and took it off and it wasn't quite the same without it :s
 
I"m drinking an Orange and Pineapple flavor 028 Elemental Carton... Yuk! :thumbdown:

But what I WANT is Fish and chips cooked in lard with mushy peas, curry sauce, apple cider vinegar and sea salt... Yum!!! :thumleft:
 
Awwww, Heidi! You poor thing. I hope you are feeling better on the elemental??

I decided to go to six small meals a day. So far... I'm starving!!!

Just finished a rice cake with pb and half a banana and counting the minutes until my next small meal!

all i ever want is fish and chips too! i crave it all the time.. sad :( but i have treated myself to it a couple of times since being on the pred and it doesnt bother me at all :) hope you get to have yours sometime soon too!
 
Last night I made the most amazing dessert I just had to share it with you all!

Nutella Mousse. O.M.G. 1 cup whipping cream, 1/2 cup nutella, 1/2 tsp instant coffee. Whip until soft peaks. Eat. Heaven.

I usually don't do dairy but I said F it - I feel like crap anyway, why not enjoy myself! :)
 
Nutella Mousse sounds awesome! A coworker just suggested nutella to me as a quick digestable way to get some calories in. Haven't bought the stuff in ages, but I love just taking a spoon of it to eat sometimes. Whip cream is usually too rich for me so I use the non dairy whipping creams.
 
Kale is probably not even close to being the best vegetable for most of the people here. Because it maintains it texture for a very long time, you can cook the hell out of it and it will still have some bite to it, even more so that cabbage. I can seemingly handle it.

Tonight how I did it was the following way.
I remove the most of the stalk, layer them and roll as tight as I can. I can only do a couple leaves at at time. Then cut it in to thin strips. I sautee it with olive oil, shallots, garlic and salt. Then I simmer it with a bit of stock until it's tender. Then finish it with some butter, salt and pepper to taste.
The next step isn't needed. If there is some cooking liquid left you can mix a teeny bit of corn starch with water or stock, and add that to the pot liquor to thicken it and mix the kale back in so that the little bit of sauce you made sticks to the leaves.

I trained as a chef when I was younger, didn't make a career out of it though.
 
That sounds tasty, though I am one of the people that can't eat it that way anymore.

I can, however, eat it without issue if I bake it cripsy. Super tasty and a good delivery device for salt, my biggest weakness!
 
I'm still experimenting with it. My first attempt at cooking with it was shredding it, adding it to a soup and cooking the hell out of it.

My dietician suggested baking it crisp as something to snack on when I hunker down to play video games.
 
Tonight was baked salmon over sushi rice. Yum! Breakfast has been smootheis and lunch has either been soups or ensure lately.
 
Homemade chicken noodle soup....my hubby made it when he had this stupid cold! Going for a walk in the cold now....
 
Homemade vegetable curry. We had turkey curry last night, and I made too much sauce, so I cooked up some veggies to have with the leftover sauce for my lunch. Mmmm delicious!
 
Just started eating again after 10 weeks of an elemental diet. Tonight was cooked rice cereal- with a small amount of honey. Yum!
 
I felt good enough to have a burger and fries for supper. Some indigestion though not bad at all.
 
Just had a huge baked sweet potato (a good delivery device for salt and butter!) and a Quorn "chicken" cutlet stuffed with goat cheese and cranberries. It was delish!!
 
Tonight I had a potato pancake with goat cheese creme topping and grilled chicken with cheese grits and winter greens - at one of my favorite local restaurants. It was fab!
 
Potato pancakes are a treat we have every year at Chanukah, but it was a real bonus to find one on the menu last night at the restaurant we went to!!
 
Earlier I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on wheat bread and potato chips. Now I'm drinking hot chocolate coffee with mini marshmallows!
 
Pen - it's easy. Just pour a packet of hot chocolate in the bottom of your mug before you pour coffee in. ;) Kind of like a make-shift mocha.

I just had two eggs and a small bowl of oatmeal w/ honey and cinnamon.
 
My first experimental SCD recipe, as in take a standard recipe and adapt. Pecan Pie -yum. Made the crust with almond flour and the filling with honey and yoghurt instead of sugar and cream. And it ain't half bad!
 
Just a few cooked veg and some noodles with cheese sauce. Woohoo! Veggies may not love me, but we can put up with each other from time to time now. :)
 
This morning... Doritos, Cherry Coke, a smoothie (strawberry/banana/orange juice/plain yogurt), and water.

How healthy! My guts are hurting me a LOT today and I think it's because I had some lettuce with dinner the night before last. Boo.
 
Made a kick-ass chicken curry stew. Had it with crushed up matzah crackers (Passover this week). Matzah, also affectionately known as "butt spackle" can bind up even the worst D! T
 
Cherry Coke, Ensure, water. The last couple of days my pain has been getting worse and worse (I've been introducing more foods) and this morning I woke in pain and I just need a break from it. Blargh.
 
I have found that the macaroons have had a good binding effect. The coconut is shredded really small so no issues so far!
 
Plain white rice. First thing I've eaten all day. Super boring, but it isn't exacerbating how crappy I feel, so it'll do.
