Welcome!

Refrigerate or freeze the stock. It is an excellent base or addition for other

souyps and

stews.

Hi

I have no advice food wise but wanted to encourage you in begininning

the diet. My husband had horrible rages, we had no idea where they were

coming from (there were times I just wanted to give up). We started SCD

for our little guy (austistic) but after reading more realized dh had

alot of the same GI issues going on. He figured it couldn't hurt to try.

Within days of going on SCD the rages stopped. We had no idea that his

moods/rages might be food related. He is a completely different person -

it is truly amazing. Looking back over his life it saddens me to realize

no one noticed the GI issues earlier (they were evident throughout his

childhood) - it would have saved him and all of us such grief. He's in

his 2 year on SCD and just told me the other day - " I never want to go

back " I will say any (even small) cheating on his part can be

disasterous. It is very obvious when he has gotten an illegal (esp

gluten or starch) - we jokingly call him the Hulk and he lays low for a

few days until it works out of his system. So, all that to say I hope

you have as great results as we did/do and be encouraged it does get

eaiser. What started as quite overwelming has become a way of life for

all of us. SCD has been one of the greatest blessings to my family.

Hi Sandy. I make a really rich chicken soup. It might be too rich for

beginners, but here goes. BTW, you need to make this a day or so in

advance.

- One whole chicken, cut in pieces and/or chicken bones, wings, whatever

you have available

- Lots of vegetables, including several whole onions, celery ribs,

carrots, squash (I don't use it but it adds a sweetness and hey, gives

you more cooked veg.). I love parsnip in soup but it isn't advisable for

beginners.

- Seasonings: salt is usually not necessary, IMO, but dill and parsley

are lovely. I use dill seeds. You can put fresh herbs in a cheesecloth

bag if you have any picky eaters who will be put off by green stuff.

- Water to cover

Bring to a boil and simmer for at least 3 or 4 hours (add water if

necessary but the water level should be lower than you start out with).

Pour broth into one pot, veg. and chicken into another. Refrigerate the

broth for at least one day. You should have a rich layer of fat to skim

off. You will be left with soup which freezes wonderfully. If you haven't

eaten the chicken chunks (because they may fall off the bone) and veg.

the day you made it, you can put slices of veg. and chicken chunks in the

soup when you freeze it.

Bon appetit ;-) Take care, Fay

Hi Sandy,

I put lots of chicken, carrots, celery, and squash in my soup so that

it is thick with ingredients and filling. For noodles, sometimes I

will pour a couple scrambled eggs into a large non-stick pan and cook

on low. Make sure to spread the egg evenly. Then, gently lift the egg

from the pan and roll up. Slice into noodle-like strips and add to

soup at last minute. For a family, you may need to do this a few times

to get enough noodles. Good luck.

Thanks for your words of encouragement. Today was the worst we have

had in awhile. I am hoping he is just detoxing.

Are you using meat from the whole chicken?... I usually cook a chicken or a duck

for about two hours... debone it.

I soaked red lentils for a bout 24 hours... they became really soft, almost

mushy ...makes the soup thicker... add a frozen pack of onions, chopped spinach

or collards, carrots...comes out pretty thick
