The recipies in Elana's book when it calls for agave, just use the same amount

of honey. Katy

I successfully substitute honey for agave in all of Elana's recipes.

Occasionally I think that the consistency isn't quite what it's " supposed to be "

but since I've never used agave I couldn't say for sure. I just keep an eye on

the food when I bake it in case it needs less time to cook. Oh and I

specifically substitute buckwheat honey for yacon syrup because it has a

somewhat molassesy flavor. It's not a perfect sub but it works for me

repeat...I know Agave is illegal, so I'm assuming Agave Nectar is illegal too.

But I just ordered online Elana's " The Gluten-free, Almond Cookbook " and learned

that she prefers the agave nectar in her recipes - I'm very bummed out about

that. Has anyone altered her recipes with honey? It's odd too because it is

much lower on the gylcemic index than honey.

ever really mentions the probiotic VSL-3 (yes, it's an SCD illegal, but so are

so many of the meds for UC). It's specifically made for UC, IBS & Ileal pouch

patients. It's kept me off meds...I am healing 100% med-free and only eating

SCD, but still in the healing process.
