a,

I'm assuming you have already done omelets with the eggs. How about

sausage or a sausage and vegetable stir fry of some sort? Also, I

like making potato pancakes just by shredding potatoes, adding a

little potato flour (Helps to hold the shredded potatoes together.

Don't use too much though or it will become doughy. You want only

enough to hold it together somewhat.), a little oil, and salt and

pepper. Spread out into the shape of small pancakes on the griddle,

and cook until brown on both sides. Did you see the information

about candida that I posted a little while ago? Maybe you could find

a cheap source of jerusalem artichoke flour for your baking. Maybe

you could grow it yourself? It is supposed to be extremely easy to

grow. It is a dried tuber, not a grain, and is supposed to be

wonderful for candida. I've heard it can also be used in place of

potatoes for scalloped potatoes and such. I'm trying to get some

myself, not for candida, but for baking in general. I can't grow it

myself right now, but I hope to in the future.

Can you have yogurt? Here are some recipes I found at

allrecipes.com. You can obviously make the quiches crust-less or use

a potato crust instead. I hope it's a good start for you anyway.

I'll try to come up with some more ideas.

I also can't eat regular breakfast foods at least not very often. For me

breakfast is usually leftovers from dinner the night before. Or sometimes

bacon. Or I cook a steak. Who says it has to look like breakfast?

My favorite is hash browns fried in coconut oil, with

kimchi (of course). I don't know how that fits with

Candida. With sausage or bacon (if you can get

nitrate free) for protein. If you make the hash browns

with raw grated potato, they don't digest all that

fast (unlike the instant ones).

Or, a kefir shake -- kefir, a banana, some fizz

water. Leave out the banana if it's not good for candida.

Kefir is supposed to be really good for candida -- I

don't know for sure in myself, but since we've been

drinking it our guts have been MUCH more well-behaved

and most people who drink it report similar results (though

there may be a " break in " period for people with yeast

infections as the gut changes flora: it's best to start slow).

Mixing eggs with some vegies to make a frittata (or

" egg foo young " is good too. Or vegies+sausage.

I also make waffles from sorghum flour (no gluten), but

I don't know that they are particularly good for your

gut issues (or blood sugar issues: I make them mainly

for my kids).

Oats usually have a trace of wheat gluten in them

(they are processed in the same facilities, usually).

If you get oats from Ireland there is less chance of

contamination, if the wheat gluten is what is causing

the problem.

Absolutely, I agree. I eat left over vegetables for breakfast all the

time. I also find the shake I make with 2 raw egg yolks, coconut oil,

flaxseed, a little vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and/or a little fruit, a

regular powerhouse for energy. I do find it satisfying to have a

little something to chew on too. A few NT prepared nuts, a half of an

avacado and/or some meat and/or vegetables really fits the bill and

the stomach!

Enjoy,

Sheila

Where do you get sorghum flour?

a, I always hated eggs, particularly hard boiled eggs. But, following the

traditional diets from Price, I concocted the following egg dish:

Take 3 eggs and separate them. Heat the whites until they start to turn white,

but are still watery. Then mix together. Add some raw milk cheese (the egg

yolks dissolve the cheese), and then a chopped organic tomato.

I not only eat this dish day after day without tiring of it, but it agrees with

me completely. Hope this helps.

Subject: Breakfast alternatives

Coming out of lurker mode;)

I've got problems with glutenous grains, soaked or

otherwise, and am having difficulty coming up with an

alternative to eggs for breakfast. I tried to do oats

again last week...soaked them overnight in a

water/buttermilk mixture and slow cooked them before

eating. My stomach was a mess all week. Back to the

drawing board!

It's not that I dislike the eggs - it's just that I'm

getting bored of them day in and day out. Since I'm

dealing with a Candida/Dysbiosis issue, fruit isn't a

logical alternative. Any ideas?

Thanks!

You guys are wonderful;)

A few comments on your suggestions~

Robin - The sausage/veggie stir fry sounds yummy - but

I've got to be careful with sausage. Anything too

greasy goes through the pipes too slowly, if you know

what I mean. Yes, I know about Jerusalem Artichokes

and candida, however, I am less than sure that they do

in fact control symptoms. It's the FOS in the 'chokes

that is supposed to offer relief, but I've always

found them to cause excess gas in people that are

prone - and boy am I prone. My prob is that the gas

can't escape...it sits there like a brick in my gut.

Thanks for your suggestions - hmmm, even an egg and

veggie stir fry sounds good. Can't believe I didn't

think of that!

Irene - Oh yes, I've done the leftovers for breakfast

many MANY mornings. However, now I've started to have

leftovers for lunch so it's super boring to eat the

same thing for dinner and then the next morning AND

THEN the next afternoon! At that point, I'm just ready

to gag, you know! I'm thinking, though, that an idea

might be to make a big ol' pasture raised chicken and

come up with loads of dishes to make out it so I can

have something different for breakfast, lunch and

dinner. So yeah, I'm definitely not adverse to eating

*non breakfast* foods in the AM.

Heidi - Again, fried food + me = blech. I've never

tried to fry anything in coconut oil (I've only used

it for light stir fries and in milk form) so maybe

that might make a difference??? What do you think?

It's not only gluten that causes trouble...it seems to

be most grains altogether. Like, I can get away with

quinoa and millet, but anything else has the

possibility of ruining my day. No fun:(

Oh, and someone said something about doing egg

whites/tomatoes/cheese - a gentleman I think (???) -

mmmmm, that sounds yummy. I'm gonna have to try that

one for sure!

Thanks again, and feel free to keep the ideas coming!

The more the better, right?!

www.twinvalleymills.com has a high-quality one. It is really,

really good! It tastes like wheat flour, has that same silky

quality, but it does not taste bad like whole wheat tends to.

(even though it is whole-grain).

Bob's Red Mill, I guess, makes it, but I've been told here

that it is " grainy " .

Indian grocery stores also carry it, really cheap, I've

heard.
