I am Lactose, Gluten and Soy intolerant. It changes my diet a lot. I have been it for a while now and i am feeling better but getting a little sick of the same foods.
Sometimes i can handle small amounts of gluten and soy (not lactose) without feeling sick but most of the time i do.
Does anyone have some recipes (doesn’t have to be quick or easy - i love to cook) for me to try without all three?
Thanks in advance!!
- Tab
p.s - i have lactose free butter so for pans and everything that is ok.
I know! I have a gluten free cookbook but a lot of the recipes have lactose and visa versa for my lactose free one.
Maybe if i combine…
Thanks!
I don’t have much, but I was telling someone on here about a quinoa porridge that’s pretty good.
Quinoa is a whole grain that is gluten-free and is cooked just like rice. If you get some that does not say it’s rinsed, I suggest rinsing it a few times before using it because of the bitter coating on each seed. Just tap water works.
The porridge.
Take two parts almond milk and one part quinoa and cook. Then add in another part almond milk, more or less (it’s your choice), to get that “sauce” porridge has. Mix in a bit of sugar, brown sugar, honey, or what have you for sweetness. Maybe a dash of salt to enhance the sweetness. Some vanilla extract if you’d like. Cinnamon and/or nutmeg. Some toasted nuts if you’d like. Or dried fruits. You could even cook up some chopped apples in the pan before adding in the quinoa and almond milk. Play around with it. Or you can use lactose free milk.
I also make a dish similar to tortilla soup, but without the broth.. or tortilla chips. But with quinoa.
Cook up some chopped onion and bell pepper in a little oil. Add in some minced garlic and cook a couple minutes more. Then mix in one part quinoa and toast it in the pan for a few minutes. Mix in two parts chicken broth or vegetable broth or water. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook. Once it’s cooked, mix in some chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice. Then I top it with chopped avocado.
You can also add in some minced jalapeƱo if you’d like. Or any other vegetable you wish. You can even add in some chopped, cooked chicken.
I’d give specific measurements, but when I make it, it’s just throw in what looks and tastes good to me, and everyone has different tastes. The only thing I measure is the quinoa and broth.
