Have you considered the possibility of having another set of tests done? This is an amazing list, so restricting. Remember this is sensitivity, not allergy so cutting out the main ones may help your tolerance to the others.

did you have this test done through the hospital, if you didn't, before you do anything go to your doctor and get referred to the hospital for your bowel problem and food allergy, you must take care because If you do have all these problems and you do not see your doctor and a dietician,you could get other problems like diabetes /thyroid,

I do not want to scare you, but for your own good health go to your doctor and get it sorted A.S.A.P.

Good Luck

I suffer from IBS and symptoms sound the same,I have had to cut out citrus fruits and certain other fruits, but yours seems such a long list,you could try getting more tests done to make sure and ask your doctor to see a dietitian, who could help you out with some recipes.

It sounds like you have all the symptoms of a condition called IBS ( Irritable Bowl Syndrome) PLEASE NOTE I HAVE NO MEDICAL QUALIFICATIONS WHAT SO EVER. I know people who have this condition. Have you seen your Doctor yet?

i hope you went to a allergy spec recommended by the doctor as they are the only one that you should listen to because i went for a allergy test at a chemist and i went to see a chiropractor's and they told me just what you have been told and it made me ill because i was afraid to eat because the told me that i was allergic to so many thing and let me tell you that maize is in 99 percent of the food we eat so before you think about what you have heard today go and see your G P but if the G P sent you then that is OK because my doctor told me that without doing blood test they couldn't tell what the food allergy was GOOD LUCK BUT YOU SOUND TO ME LIKE YOU GOT I B S TAKE care i realy feel for you

I knew a guy who had to take a liquid diet, & it sucked, so I won't recommend. Try eating certain fruits & veggies.

WOW! The FIRST thing you should do is go see a second doctor and have them check you out!! Don't ask your existing doctor for a referral either! Use the websites of one of the organizations for allergies, IBS or celiac to locate someone for a second opinion. One handy bit of advice with this kind of diagnosis is to ask your doctors what they think of mercola (I refuse to capitalize the fools name or use MD along with it), if they have *anything* good to say about mercola GO ELSEWHERE!!!!



Have you ever drunk raw milk or eaten raw milk cheeses? There are several bacteria and/or parasites in raw dairy that have been linked to the kind of problem you're asking about. The FDA and CDC had information on their websites about raw milk and food sensitivity but it appears they took it down under dairy industry pressure. I haven't yet found new links but treatment was similar to aggressive TB treatment regimens.



I've also seen where metal poisoning can cause these symptoms. Diagnosis is done by taking blood and tissue samples and testing them for all metals (referred to as a heavy metal bio-assay). Treatment uses chelation therapy to lower metal levels.



Both of those are almost considered as 'nutcase' medicine but I do know someone who got relieve from symptoms after treatment for high levels of cadmium. They'd had symptoms for years, after getting a job at a battery plant they failed a routine test. Then started finding that 'cheating' on the restricted diet caused no problems after treatment!



Those two ideas are worth a shot anyway. I'm not a doctor etc but I've been helping friends with food problems for many years. I've got a good gluten free flour recipe but it uses rice and corn ingredients. Here's my "first draft" of a flour blend for you. It should at least make decent flatbreads (like tortilla's) and will most likely make decent enough risen bread to satisfy your cravings.



3 cups white bean flour

1 1/2 cup potato starch

1 cup tapioca starch (may be called flour)

1/2 cup potato flour (yes, it's different from the starch)

1/3 cup xanthan gum



Any decent health food store should have all these ingredients (or at least order them). You can also get these on-line from Arrowhead mills or Bob's Red Mill. The Xanthan looks scary, but it's not! It's isolated from bacteria humans have been eating since we've been on Earth. I've yet to see anyone react poorly to it (unlike other food gums).



If you try the flour blend PLEASE email me through my profile and let me know how it works! I'll help tweak the recipe for you!

As a person that has gone thru very extensive testing for allergies - I would strongly suggest that you get a second opinion. If you have a limited selection to make choice from because of insurance - call and make sure that they are testing by skin tests and not just a blood test.



What you have written vs. what I know I went thru with my testing gives rise for me making such a suggestion. I strongly suggest that you talk to another doctor for a second opinion that does a full spectrum analysis and not just limit the tests to blood work.



At the very least - you will find out if the diagnosis is confirmed by a totally independent source.



Think about it this way - do you just go to one car dealership and take all that is said - or do you go to another to compare? Why do less with your personal health? Trust me - your health is worth taking the time for another opinion - even if it only confirms the first. You are worth such.



Wishing nothing but good health for you.

I think you will find people saying that only a blood test will reveal your true allergies. However food sensitivity is not an allergy.

I am intolerant of milk (lactose). I cut it out of my diet for a month, and used soya milk. But I gradually re introduced it, and as long i don't have cereal , yoghurt, and cheese all in 1 day, I'm OK. My younger sister is the same, so maybe it's an inherited thing?

I had a rash on my leg, and stomach cramps too, I went for allergy testing, I got a huge list too, but it turned out I was stressed out, and I didn't realise it.

So my advice, cut out the foods for a while, but re-introduce them, you can't live forever eating only a handful of unusual foods



Glad to see you did get a blood test, it just annoys me people who say they are allergic,,, and they are not. Good luck with getting better.

I would get a salad recipe book and go from there. It looks like you can have potatoes, and I do know that there is a bread product made of potatoes. I have terrible allergies and I have found that I have to stick to the same old recipes, and it is tough, but something that I have gotten use to. Check out the health stores, they tend to carry some really cool products that will permit you to make products that will substitute the ones that you really miss. Fish , tuna, and Salmon are great things that you can make really good foods with.So maybe a recipe book on only fish would be a good idea. I have fried up some steaks and cut them into squares, then put them on my salad with craisns, and top it off with ranch and I think you may like it. Everyone that I serve it to loves it. Of course I add other veggies, but you get the idea. I wish you the best.

you have a lot of sensitivities but there is also good news as these are sensitivities not " true" allergies at this point ... If you have had a blood test (RAST) , you can have yourself retested but in any case the first thing you need to do is abstain from the foods for 6 months .. I want to ease your mind that a sensitivity is not a full allergy as it normally does not involve your entire immune system and does not have to be for life and /or some products you will be able to tolerate in small amounts without any symptoms later on ...Dairy is very unhealthy for you and many people live their entire lives without it (as myself) .. It is a very common allergen , statistics ranging from 50 to 80 percent of people having some form of allergy to it .. (so that would take your number one and sheep's milk off your list) second eliminating the fish and meat on your list is really no problem .. and the same eliminating many of the items , it gets harder adding your rice, wheat and corn sensitivity ... as these are found in many products .. and in many staples .. but you do need to rid and cleanse your body of all for the 6 months to start .. any health food store can help you if you bring in your list ...they will guide you towards suitable foods as they are knowledgeable on both nutrition and allergy free foods ... you can make your own or buy breads that will contain none of your sensitivity foods .. there is also " tons " of vegetables and fruits not on your list that you can happily eat ..so try to look upon this as learning about new foods .. I would also suggest eating organics as your body is currently having enough to deal with ... so eliminating additional pesticides and sulfites will help .....after 6 months you can introduce certain foods one at a time to test , ONE AT A TIME .. and do not introduce a second for 6 weeks .... you must also eliminate the following as they contain wheat ..it is hidden in many foods and you may be eating it without knowing thus aggravating your probllem .. .. http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:XzI31MY6GvwJ:www.lpch.org/DiseaseHealthInfo/HealthLibrary/allergy/wheat.html+&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=us \ ........ And for corn ....http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:AhBWgZbnsM0J:allergies.about.com/od/foodallergies/a/cornallergy.htm+&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=10&gl=us ....... when you do decide to try adding one of the items back on your list ..start by having it only once a week and pick what you really really want as you probably will not be able to tolerate a large amount of your list ... try not to get down because there still is a lot you can eat! .. there are many sites for recipes on line .... be inventitive and go to a health food store and /or contact some on line (giving them your list) so they can aid you and sell you suitable foods..goodluck ..

Can I just say, bloody hell. Poor you!



I would visit your local helath food shop and they will be able to reccomend suitbale foods. Also, ask your GP to refer you to a dietician. They will work on a food plan with you which ensures you get all the good things you need from your food, whilst avoiding the things that you can't eat.

bread - try bread made from spelt flour. my friend is allergic to wheat and their family uses spelt flour, i think it's pretty tasty too - nice flavor, not too dry, darker brown color, i like it.

milk - what about goat's milk?

Note- I edited this and added some info on nut milks and nut and fruit butters and a note about vegan and celiac websites...and still adding at the bottom...see edits.. added some links too.



What do they say you can eat? You didn't list oatmeal, spelt, quinoa, amaranth or teff flour (or grain),peanuts and peanut butter and oil, some fruits, some vegetables, white beans, walnuts, chickpeas(garbanzo beans), potatoes (white and sweet), coconut (coconut milk),sesame, lemon, garlic, lime,etc...

**********************

Vegan websites will have more dairy free and egg free recipes, but some of your restricted items. Celiac websites will have wheat and gluten free recipes, but some of your restricted items.

***********************

Chickpea omelette

http://www.vegan-food.net/recipe/20/Besan-Chick-Pea-Flour-Omelette/ (chickpea omelette)

****************

Flax seeds (can substitute for eggs...1 TBSP flax ground in blender with 3 TBSP of water),

http://www.chooseveg.com/flax-smoothie.asp (blueberry flax smoothie video)



Also box mixed Ener G egg replacer...found in health food stores..

***********************

You can try making milks out of nuts, beans and grains that you are not allergic to (ie amaranth, quinoa, kamut , oatmeal, and beans(white navy beans, great northern beans,etc) and nuts (pistachio, peanut, brazil, macadamia, hazelnuts and butters and oils). With the nuts, beans and grains you cook them, run them thru a blender with some of the cooking water and seive out the pulp and refrigerate (can add sweetners and vanilla or cocoa). Some of these "milks" will be different color than white...

You can make flours by running grain or bean (not nuts)thru a flour mill or coffee grinder (with beans you might have to roast in oven or skillet first...but I don't think you have to).With nuts, run them thru a blender to fine grit for "flour" (can replace some flour in breads, but not all..still gritty) .



And you can make nut butters out of them or buy the corresponding nut butter.Here are some links to making nut butters..

Nut Butters

http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/000750.html (pistachio/almond butter)(can leave out the almonds and make pure pistachio or substitute another nut)

http://rubies.articledirectoree.com/articles/recipes/non-dairy-cheese-recipes-2_17.html (general rules)



You could possibly make BEAN butters if you deep fry dried beans and grind in blender or roast in oven or skillet and blenderize them (or food processor them) with enough oil to facilitate it...but THAT IS HARD ON A BLENDER!! (have not tried just heard about it)



Fruit butter spreads (ie apple butter)

http://www.recipeatlas.com/extrasrecipes/butterrecipes/





******************



here is my recipes for Oat milk and oat cream and oat "ice cream"...it is a little gummy...you could substitute some coconut milk to cut down on gummy if you want..can buy it or make coconut milk...see recipe for that below. Also so gummy that you could probably leave the few TBSP of flour out ...(it was converted from a peach ice cream recipe)



Liquefied Oatmeal, Oat Milk and Oat Cream Recipes for Oatmeal-In-Disguise



(Proportions are for a 1 gallon recipe of Oatmeal-In-Disguise)



Liquefied Oatmeal (need approx 5 ½ cups for 1 gallon of ice oatmeal)



2 1/8 cups oats



4 ¼ cups water



¼ tsp. salt



½ cup sugar



1 tray of med ice cubes (medium tray containing approx. 1 cup of water)

OR ½ tray of large ice cubes (large tray containing approx. 2 cups of water)



Bring water and salt to a boil, add oats and cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, let cool 5 minutes, add sugar and stir in. Add ice cubes. Stir in and allow them all to melt. When oatmeal is neither too hot nor too cool to work with, place in 1 cup proportions in a blender at a time, and gradually increase speed from grate, grind, etc. to liquefy. Pour into a separate bowl and continue until all the oatmeal is liquefied.

************

OAT MILK (need 4 ¼ cups for 1 gallon of ice oatmeal)

(Basic proportions- 1 cup liquefied oatmeal to 2 cups water to 1/6 cup sugar to ¼ cup oil)





In a 5 cup blender mix and blend well:



1 ½ cups liquefied oatmeal



3 cups water



1/6 cup sugar (2 ½ TBSP)



3/8 cup vegetable oil



Set aside in a separate bowl, until needed.

********************

Oat Cream (need 6 cups for 1 gallon of ice oatmeal)

(Basic proportions- 3 1/3 cups liquefied oatmeal to 1 cup water to ¼ cup sugar to 2/3 cup oil)



In a 5 cup blender mix and blend well:



3 1/3 cups liquefied oatmeal



1 cup water



¼ cup sugar



2/3 cup vegetable oil



Pour into a separate container and set aside until needed (add the sixth cup below in also).



Then for the SIXTH cup of Oat cream (i.e., only using a 5 cup blender)blend:



3/4 cup liquefied oatmeal



¼ cup water



1 tsp. sugar



1 TBSP vegetable oil



***********************

Peach Oatmeal-In-Disguise (1 gallon recipe) (fake ice cream)



This is apparently heavier than ice cream, so you need to triple the original ice cream recipe to double the results.



6 generous cups crushed fresh ripe peaches (approx. 12 med. Peaches)

1 cup sugar

3/8 tsp. almond extract

3 cups sugar

3/8 tsp. salt

6 TBSP flour

6 TBSP. vegetable oil (or 2 eggs substitute)

4 ½ cups oat milk (see recipe)

6 tsp. pure vanilla extract

6 cups oat cream (see recipe)



See recipe for liquefied oatmeal and make that, then from that make the oat milk and oat cream (see recipes).



Combine peaches with 1 cup sugar and almond extract. Set aside.



Combine the 3 cups of sugar, salt and flour in a saucepan. Blend in the corn oil and ¾ cup of the oat milk. Add remaining oat milk and cook over low heat until mixture coats a metal spoon, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool.



Stir in pure vanilla extract and oat cream. (Add 2 cups of water if you want it to fluff up more and stir in.)



Pour into a 1 gallon freezer can. Place can in freezer tub. Cover with lid. Put on gear case and adjust it until the handle turns easily. Pack with coarse ice cream salt and crushed ice. Turn the crank (if non-electric) until it begins to slightly resist, the mixture is then half-frozen. Remove the gear case. Wipe off lid so that no salt gets into the ice cream.



Remove lid and add crushed peaches.



Cover with lid, adjust gear case and pack with salt and ice as in above proportions. Turn crank (if non-electric) with increased speed until it is too hard to turn. (Iced oatmeal is frozen at this point.)



Remove gear case, lid and dasher. Pack down ice cream with a spoon. Either repack ice cream in another container, or cover can with a piece of cloth or aluminum foil. Replace lid. Cork or cover hole in top of lid. (Drain water out and packed ice.) Put ice cream in freezer for several hours to firm. Makes approx. 1 gallon.

Recipe for 4 Gallons of various flavors of Fruit Oatmeal-In-Disguise



(Mix together the basic batter as before, cook, cool and divide into 4 portions.)

(Mix each portion of fruit separately with its sugar and almond extract (if called for).



Set aside 4 bowls for each flavor of fruit:

In each bowl put:



6 cups crushed fruit

1 cup sugar (see below , some fruits take more sugar)

***3/8 tsp. almond extract, if the fruit is peach or cherry, otherwise omit***



Other Ingredients:

12 cups sugar

1 ½ tsp. salt

24 TBSP flour (1 ½ cups minus 1 TBSP)

24 TBSP vegetable oil (1 ½ cups minus 1 TBSP) (or 8 egg substitute)

18 cups oat milk

(6 tsp. pure vanilla extract PER EACH GALLON PORTION, when called for. It depends on fruit.)

24 cups oat cream



See recipe for liquefied oatmeal and make that, then from that make oat milk and oat cream (see recipes for those also) and set each aside until called for in recipe.



Combine each fruit with 1 cup sugar (depends on fruit …see below) and IF PEACH OR CHERRY FLAVOR, almond extract. Set aside.



Combine the 12 cups sugar, salt and flour in 8 qt. saucepan. Blend in the corn oil and 3 cups of the oat milk. Add remaining oat milk and cook over low heat until mixture coats a metal spoon, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool. DIVIDE INTO 4 EQUAL PORTIONS.



Stir in pure vanilla extract (6 tsp. per each portion) WHERE CALLED FOR BY TYPE OF FRUIT INVOLVED , and 6 cups of oat cream in EACH of the 4 portions. (OPTIONAL-Add 2 cups of water per each portion to make the ice oatmeal fluff up more.) Follow the rest of the directions for making ice cream from the original recipe. Just make 4 batches.



FLAVORS:



Peach: 6 cups crushed peaches

1 cup sugar

3/8 tsp. almond extract

(ok to use the vanilla extract in batter)



Blueberry: 6 cups crushed fresh or frozen blueberries (approx. 2 of 1 lb packages)

1 ½ cups sugar

(omit almond extract, and omit vanilla extract from batter)

Note-crush blueberries by pushing with a metal spoon into a mixer gently)



Bing Cherry- 6 cups fresh or frozen bing cherries, pitted and cut in halves (approx 3 of 12 oz. packages)

1 cup sugar

3/8 tsp almond extract

(ok to use vanilla extract in batter)



Applesauce and Cinnamon- 6 cups of unsweetened applesauce (half chunky and half smooth)

1 ½ cup sugar

cinnamon to taste (about 6 tsp)

(omit almond extract)

(ok to use vanilla extract in batter)



Strawberry- 6 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, cut in halves (about 2 of 1 lb packages)

1 ½ cups sugar

(omit almond extract)

Note- if vanilla extract is used in batter, it gives a banana-type flavor to the strawberry ice

oatmeal. This is neither good nor bad, just interesting.



***************************************

for this recipe, get some dried garbanzo beans (chickpeas), white navy or great northern beans, toast them in the oven or a skillet and then grind them into flour in a flour mill or coffee bean grinder...(you can grind flax seeds in a coffee grinder also)...for the milk, try coconut milk.



WHEAT-FREE AND GLUTEN-FREE PIZZA CRUST





This crispy pizza crust tastes so delicious that your guests won't know it's wheat and gluten-free. You can hold a slice in your hand and it won't crumble! You may also shape the dough into four individual pizzas.



1 tablespoon gluten-free dry yeast

2/3 cup brown rice flour or bean flour

1/2 cup tapioca flour

2 tablespoons dry milk powder or non-dairy milk powder*

2 teaspoons xanthan gum

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powder

1 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning

2/3 cup warm water (105 degrees F)

1/2 teaspoon sugar or 1/4 teaspoon honey

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cider vinegar

Cooking spray



Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.



In medium bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend the yeast, flours, dry milk powder, xanthan gum, salt, gelatin powder, and Italian herb seasoning on low speed. Add warm water, sugar (or honey), olive oil, and vinegar. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. (If the mixer bounces around the bowl, the dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a time, until dough does not resist beaters.) The dough will resemble soft bread dough. (You may also mix in bread machine on dough setting.)



Put mixture into 12-inch pizza pan or on baking sheet (for thin, crispy crust), 11 x 7-inch pan (for deep dish version) that has been coated with cooking spray. Liberally sprinkle rice flour onto dough, then press dough into pan, continuing to sprinkle dough with flour to prevent sticking to your hands. Make edges thicker to contain the toppings. Bake the pizza crust for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Spread pizza crust with your favorite sauce and toppings. Bake for another 20-25 minutes or until top is nicely browned.



Serves 6.

Tips

http://www.chooseveg.com/recipe_tips.asp (vegan cooking tips)

**********************



Here is a quick overview of the various healthy gluten-free flours and their attributes (I left out the ones you are allergic to):

Amaranth is a whole grain dating back to the time of the Aztecs. It is high in protein (15-18%), and contains more calcium, folic acid, Vitamin A, C, and E than most grains. The flavor is similar to that of graham crackers without the sweetness.

Bean Flour is a light flour made from garbanzo and broad beans. When using this flour in your favorite recipes, replace the white sugar with brown or maple sugar (or combine with sorghum) to cut the bitter taste of the beans.

Nut Flours are high in protein and, used in small portions, enhance the taste of many baked goods. Finely ground nuts added to a recipe increases the protein content and allows for a better rise. It is a great substitute for non-fat dry milk powder in gluten-free recipes. We like it so much we always make the substitution. Keep refrigerated.

Quinoa (keen-wah), a staple food of the Incas, is a complete protein containing all 8 amino acids as well as a fair amount of calcium and iron. High in some B vitamins and folic acid.

Teff is an ancient grain from Ethiopia, now grown in Idaho. It is always manufactured as a whole grain flour, since it is difficult to sift or separate. A good source of protein, calcium, iron, fiber, and B vitamins.

Cross-contamination at the factory can cause diet compliance issues for the gluten intolerant. Call or write the manufacturers of your preferred flours to inquire about factory and field practices.



Many people may wonder why I use just one recipe for bread. It is really a template that can be changed to suit your own tastes, preferences, or dietary needs.

Injera is a pancake spongy bread made in Ethiopia from teff grain..here are 3 recipes..



INJERA



Ingredients:

3/4 cup teff, ground fine (this may be done either in a flour mill or in a

blender after moistening in 3 1/2 cups water)

salt

sunflower or other vegetable oil



1. Mix ground teff with 3 1/2 cups water and let stand in a bowl covered with a dish towel, at room temperature, until it bubbles and has turned sour. This may take as long as 3 days. The fermenting mixture should be the consistency of pancake batter (which is exactly what it is).



2. Stir in salt, a little at a time, until you can barely detect the taste.



3. Lightly oil an 8- or 9-inch skillet (or a larger one if you like). Heat over medium heat. Then proceed as you would with a normal pancake or crepe.

Pour in enough batter to cover the bottom of the skillet. About 1/4 cup will make a thin pancake covering the surface of an 8-inch skillet if you spread the batter around immediately by turning and rotating the skillet in the air.

This is the classic French method for very thin crepes. Injera is not supposed to be paper thin so you should use a bit more batter than you would for crepes, but less than you would for a flapjack.



4. Cook briefly, until holes form in the injera and the edges lift from the pan. Remove and let cool.



Yields 10 to 12 injeras.

**************



Injera (from teff flour)



(must be prepared 2 to 3 days ahead of use)



1 1/2 lbs. teff (grain found at health food stores)

4 cups of water

Salt



Prepare the Injera:

Mix the teff and water and let stand at room temperature in a covered glass or ceramic bowl for three days. When the mixture bubbles, it should smell a bit sour, and have the consistency of pancake batter. Mix in about 1 tsp. of salt. This should stop the fermentation. You must immediately cook the teff. Oil the bottom of a large, heavy-bottom frying pan (cast-iron is best). Heat the pan at a medium-high temperature, when a few drops of water sizzle away quickly, it is hot enough to begin. Then pour in enough batter to cover the base of the pan. Cook until holes form on the face of the injera and the edges lift from the pan. Do not turn over. Remove and let cool.

Injera, Yet'ef (from teff flour)



Yield: 1



Ingredients:



1 1/2 lb t’ef flour

6 cups water

2 pkt yeast



Method:

This is the recipe for injera made from t'ef flour off Exotic Ethiopian Cooking



Sift t'ef into deep mixing bowl. Add water gradually and working with your fingers to avoid lumps. Work into a dough. In another pot dissolve yeast in some warm water. Add to the flour. Mix. Leave the dough uncover until fermentation starts (the tef will rise to the top), 2 or 3 days. Discard the water. Separately boil cups of water. Add 1 cup of the dough to the boiling water. Put on the stove (make sure it's warm), and stir continuously. When it becomes thick, remove and cool down. Return to the original pot. Add more water, cover and let stand until it rises. Now you are ready to finally cook the thing. Preheat oven to about 420 degrees (use a non-stick pan or a pancake pan). Pour about 4 cups of the mixture into the pan, starting at the edge and going in circles towards the center. Cover and cook for 2-4 min s. The rim of the injera will rise when it's done. Remove immediately

Hummus is a chickpea spread for sandwiches..made with sesame butter (tahini) and lemon juice and garlic...



Classic Hummous



Ingredients

·One (19 oz.) can cooked chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed OR 2 cups cooked chickpeas

·1 tbsp. tahini (sesame seed paste)

·1 tbsp. lemon juice, about half a lemon

·1 large clove garlic, roughly chopped

·1-2 tbsp. water, to thin, if necessary



Instructions:

1.You can use either a hand blender or food processor to make this hummous. If using a hand blender, you'll need at least a two cup capacity cup. Either way, add about half the chickpeas and start to blend.

2.Gradually add in the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, but not the water.

3.Keep blending until the volume reduces slightly and the texture becomes more smooth, then add the rest of the chickpeas.

4.Blend until desired consistency is reached - chunkier is good for sandwiches, while a thinny dip may be desired for pita chips.

5.Add 1-2 tbsp. water if necessary while blending.

6.Stir in any additions, garnish, and serve!



******************



Whipped chickpea, spinach, and potato spread



Chickpea spread:

1 cup dried chickpeas, rinsed and picked over

1 small new potato (Yukon Gold, Yellow Fin, etc), peeled and quartered

5-6 handfuls of spinach, washed well

1 small red onion, chopped

zest of one lemon

juice of 1/2 lemon, approx.

salt and pepper

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

warm water

chives for garnish (opt)



Prepare beans and potato:

Soak the garbanzos overnight. Drain soaking liquid, and refill with enough water to cover the beans by about an inch. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat, and allow to simmer until beans are tender. Add the potato to the pot (or cook it in another water-filled) until tender, another 10 minutes or so. Drain any extra water at this point and set beans/potato aside.



********************************



Walnut-Flaxseed Hummus



Instead of sesame tahini, this hummus recipe uses walnuts and flax seed, which are rich in important Omega-3 fatty acids. The result is milder-tasting than traditional hummus, but equally delicious. An added bonus: People following the Eat to Live nutritional program can eat this without guilt!



1 16-ounce can (or 1 1/2 cups) cooked chickpeas, drained

1-2 cloves garlic, peeled

1 ounce (about 1/4 cup) walnuts

1 tbsp. ground flaxseeds

1/4 cup water or chickpea cooking liquid

1/8 cup lemon juice

1/8-1/4 tsp. ground cumin

1/4 tsp. paprika

dash cayenne or chipotle chili powder



Toss the garlic into a running food processor, and process until thoroughly chopped. Add the walnuts, and process until they are in tiny pieces. Add the chickpeas, flaxseed, and 1/4 cup of water (or cooking liquid). Begin blending and add the lemon juice. Continue blending until the mixture is smooth, adding a little more liquid if necessary. Add 1/8 tsp. of the cumin, the paprika, and dash cayenne, and blend for another minute, and taste to check the seasonings. If needed, add more cumin and lemon juice.

Serve as a dip for veggies, a filling for pita bread, or atop a salad.

*********************************



Latvian Beet Soup (minus hardboiled eggs and sour cream)



6 - 8 large, fresh beets, 14 - 16 medium sized ones, or two dozen tiny new ones

1 - 2 handfuls of rolled oats

6 - 8 medium-sized potatoes

3 - 4 beef bouillon cubes



Wash beets well, and cut off the roots. If using large beets, dice into large chunks. Put beets into a large Dutch oven or stock pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and cook until beets are soft (about 10 - 20 minutes, depending on the size of the beets).

Drain off the water, and let the beets cool. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and dice them (cubes about 1/2 to 1 inch in diameter). Put about 2 - 2 1/2 quarts of water into large pot. Add bouillion cubes, rolled oats , and potatoes. Bring to a boil, then simmer until potatoes are soft.

Meanwhile, put the cooled beets into a Cuisinart or blender and blend to desired size and texture. Add beet mixture and stir all together, until beets are heated through.

Pour over them a couple of ladlefuls of the beet soup, and get ready for raves!

Serves 8 - 12.

Chickpea Sweet Balls Recipe



Sweet, Spiced Balls of Chickpea Flour



Mix together in a large saucepan:

2 1/2 cups chickpea flour

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/3-1/2 cup ghee

powdered almond (opt.)



Sauté over low heat, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes until softened to the consistency of peanut butter and slightly browned.



Take off the heat and cool for about 5 minutes, then add:

2 cups granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder



Mix well. Let cool for as long as possible, at least 30-60 minutes. The balls are easier to form when the ingredients are room temperature. Make into 1” balls by squeezing about 1 heaping teaspoon of dough back and forth from one hand to another. Continue this process until each ball is firm and shiny. The mixture will be crumbly at first, and it takes a number of passes between your hands for the ball to form. If you are finding the mixture too crumbly, be sure you have let it cool enough. Some people find using a melon baller helps the process. As a last resort, add a little more melted ghee.

Berry Bean Blast



Makes 4 servings (about 6 ounces each)

Preparation Time: 5 to 8 minutes

1 can (15 ounces) Navy beans or Great Northern beans or 1 1/2 cups cooked dry-packaged Navy beans or Great Northern beans, rinsed, drained

1 1/2 cups orange juice

2 cups quartered strawberries

2 to 3 tablespoons honey

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

6 to 8 ice cubes



Preparation

Process all ingredients, except ice cubes, in blender until smooth. Add ice cubes and blend until smooth. Serve in glasses.



TIP: Berry Bean Blast can be made 1 to 2 days in advance; refrigerate, covered. The drink will thicken in the refrigerator; stir in orange juice or cold water for desired consistency. Frozen strawberries can be used; if using frozen berries, ice cubes will not be needed.



NOTE: Although B.E.A.N. recipes usually call for a specific variety, any canned or dry-packaged bean variety can be easily substituted for another.

Preparing Coconut Milk from Fresh Coconuts



Pierce the eyes of a fresh coconut, drain the liquid inside and place the coconut on a rack and bake in a 325F pre-heated oven for about 30 minutes.

Remove the coconut from the oven, let it cool a bit and crack it with a hammer so that the shell breaks into several pieces.

Remove all the coconut meat from the shell, peel off the brown skin and cut the meat into very small cubes.

Place the meat in a blender, add hot water to just cover all of the meat and blend until finely grated.

Place a sieve covered with cheese cloth over a bowl and pour the coconut meat and water into the sieve squeezing handfuls of the coconut meat to extract as much liquid as possible into the bowl.

Discard the squeezed coconut meat and refrigerate the coconut milk that has been extracted into the bowl. Refrigerate the milk and use within 1 or 2 days.

Fibromyalgia, IBS, Crohn’s and MycobacteriaTB in milk



Fibromyalgia is said to be linked to IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and spastic bladder. I have been reading questions and answers in the vegetarian section and one link suggested that cow's milk can have mycobacterium bovis (similar to tuberculosis) that can form spores that are resistant to being killed off in the high heat of pasteurization and the people on the website suggested that that may be the cause of IBS.



Here are some links.

http://www.gulfmd.com/general%20medecine/Tuberculosis.asp?id=14 (M. Bovis can cause TB)

http://www.pharmcast.com/Patents100/Yr2005/Mar2005/030105/6861053_Bowel030105.htm (patent for a treatment of IBS and fibromyalgia with anti-microbials or protobiotic agents,etc...links fibromyalgia to IBS to Raynaud's syndrome)

and to small intestinal bacterial overgrowth...mentions Mycobacterium paratuberculosis)(interesting...seems to cure a few too many diseases?)

http://focosi.immunesig.org/pathobacteria.htm (scroll down about 1/8 of the page down in the gram postitive section to see the links of mycobacterium paratuberculosis to milk..how it survives pasteurization and linking it to Crohn's disease and IBS)



Tuberculosis germs can affect or move to other parts of the body besides the lungs..including the spinal cord and brain, which is the reason why patients who test positive for tuberculosis but have no active (lung) disease are recommended to be treated with antibiotics, since the TB germ is merely kept “locked up” or under control by body defenses, not killed…

http://www.mnwelldir.org/docs/history/biographies/louis_pasteur.htm#Pasteurization (pasteurization does not kill typhoid, coli bacillus, and tuberculosis are not killed by the temperatures used, and there have been a good number of salmonella epidemics traced to pasteurized milk…and the temps used destroy any antibacterial properties of milk)
