[SPAM] Re:Feast without Yeast

[Guest guest]

: I am confused. I consider the GF diet to be sort of SCDish with

a little starch. I think anyone would agree that replacing gluten

with starch and making no attempt to get the proper balance of meat,

fruits and veggies in can't be good. Is that what the SCD folks are

referring to or am I missing something?

Colleen: With a celiac in the family diabetes and other autoimmune

threats are always a concern. How have you figured out how to cook

with it? I make occasional coconut cookies (for cake subs at bday

parties) and cannot figure out a way to get stevia in there. Any

thoughts? The agave syrup for diabetics is what I am using for now to

keep things together (cookies).

There is a stevia cookbook, which I am looking at getting. Right now, I

rarely bake any sweets.
