How come many people allow cheese or cottage cheese. I thought dairy was the devil and laden with hormones when it came to acne?

Yogurt too?

Does anyone have a good gluten-free pancake recipe? I made quinoa pancakes, and they were disgusting. I made some other ones with a mix of a few flours (like garbanzo bean, potato, and rice) and it was pretty good.

Look at the coconut and breakfast threads for coconut pancakes and banana/nut butter pancakes.

Does anyone know a good replacement for tortillas? I miss mexican food.

Are you avoiding all grains? If not, corn tortillas are ok. Just read the label for additives or make your own. There's also a recipe for oat tortillas here somewhere, I think the better bread or better grain thread.

There's also lettuces, cabbage and other veggies. Jicama can be sliced really thin and used for tacos. The Food network show Mexican Made easy had a segment in which this was done.

Also, contrary to popular belief, Mexicans don't wrap everything they eat up in a tortilla. It is in fact possible to eat Mexican food and all the great flavors in dishes that have nothing to do with tortillas.

I figured I'd get that response, but I'm talking about the San Diegan mexican food I'm used to/love.

You'd think with San Diego being so close to Baja, San Diego-Mex would be full of seafood and other dishes not wrapped up in a tortilla.

Have you ever watched 'Mexican Made Easy?' The host/chef is from Baja and mostly makes things from the area. I take it you are avoiding all grains. Have you done it for a while? You might try buying some Masa Harina and making your own tortillas free from additives. Or see if you can find a restaurant or tortillaria that makes them fresh, meant to be eaten fresh, and so are free from additives. The corn in masa harina has been soaked in an alkaline solution, called lime but not the citrus, that breaks down anti-nutrients. It's probably not a problem for you to have some once in a while..

Very informative thread! I recommend this to all my friends. I took out so many recipes, yumm!

I've always been a huge fan of gluten and dairy, its hard to me to follow the paleo diet

anyways this fruit salad i just made today was delicious, I gotta admit, i enjoy more eating this than a cheese sandwich i used to eat before



this salad was made of white and black grapes, mango, watermelon, small peaches (dont know the name in english) and kiwi

What do you guys think of peanut butter? The ones without sugar in it of course.

[tk112233]

the other day i was browsing through the gluten-free section in the store and found this organic vegetable broth: http://www.pacificfo...vegetable-broth

it's gluten free, kosher parve, dairy free, low sodium, low fat, and vegan diet.
and the ingredients are:

• Filtered water
• Organic carrots
• Organic tomatoes
• Organic celery
• Organic onions
• Organic garlic
• Organic leeks
• Sea salt
• Organic bay leaves
• Organic parsley
• Organic thyme

do you think it's ok for me to give it a try? it's all organic ingredients and there isn't any weird junk in it like other broths that i've seen.

^ Yes. But you could also make your own veggie broths and freeze. Just simmer up your veggie scraps (add some garlic cloves) from when you cook. Include the onion skins as there's apparently a lot of the quercetin in the skin. Plus it makes a nice color. And leeks and green onions are great because you have all the green parts to flavor your broth. I always make a lot of broth whenever I have leeks.

Thanks for this great healthy food resource .
