Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Hello Listmates, Just a quick question, Luke (3y/o ASD) has been on the diet for about 3 weeks and I was wondering if Papadini Hi-Protein Lentil Bean Pasta is legal on the SCD? The ingredients say lentil flour, salt, and baking soda. I haven't contacted the company yet to find out if these are truly the only ingredients, I figured I'd ask you all first. I know that lentil beans are legal, but only prepared in a specific way. Luke loves this pasta, he used to eat it all the time while GF/CF. I appreciate the help, Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the help, Kim > Sorry Kim but many GFCF items such as lentil flour are not used on SCD as the starch is too hard to digest. Here is a reference to several comments on the subject on Elaine Gottschall's web site: http://ccgi.cobbler.plus.com/search.php?q=legumes I suggest you try peeling zucchini, cutting it in vertical strips with a vegetable peeler and sauteeing it in butter or oil. It will become translucent and taste very good with tomato sauce (SCD version) and/or melted cheese. Carol F. SCD 7 years, celiac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Kim, Three weeks i much too soon to introduce lentels. Beans(lentels fall in this category) should not be introduced before six months according to Elaine in BTVC. Certainly, it is possible that some people could be ready for them a little soon. Our son was able to handle lentels at five months into SCD, but only on occassion. You definitely need to give a few months of healing before you try this. However, out of curiosity for our use, what brand is this, and what type of grocery store did you find this in(regular, health food)? Thanks. Meleah SCD 05/06 iel 3.5yrs.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 This pasta wouldn't be legal on SCD, even if someone was ready for lentils. There's no way we can know if the proper SCD soaking and cooking procedure was followed. Sorry.
