Sausage around here is meat scraps with some organ meat tossed in (if nobody

wants the organ meat itself). We use " natural " casings which are from animals

but we're not ambitious enough to clean our own. Tho we did try it once the

process is much too time consuming.

Costco also has it, but I think it is in 5lb packages for $9.99.Speaking of Costco, the label on their Kirkland hot rotisserie chicken says that it is gluten-free.

And they are delicious, too! The only brand I've

found that has NO chemicals in it. I buy the

breakfast sausage all the time. Safeway carries it.

Hi :

> Are we allowed to eat sausage? I'm trying to figure out what I can eat in an

Italian >restaurant. I usually get the sauteed spinach and fish with a marinara

sauce. But I used >to love to get the sauteed broccoli rabe and sausage.

*** I have definitely found that the only way for me to eat on this diet is for

me to make it myself. There are so many additives and bad oils and unknown

things used in restaurant and prepared foods. So the answer is: sausage is

totally allowed, but you'll have to make it yourself (I told you about the

breadless " Nourishing Traditions " sausage I make) or buy it from someone who is

a very special sausage maker.

You can be sure that a restaurant is going to buy the most cost effective (read

processed, processed, processed) sausage they can find. You will not be able to

determine anything from your server, they will not know what is in the sausage.

I think your best bet when dining out is to order complete cuts of meat or

fish... like a filet or a chop.

You can make broccoli rabe and sausage at home that will be better for you than

anything at a restaurant. I have learned to do my meal-time entertaining at

home. Invite your friends over for dinner. They can help cook, even. But

you'll know that you can eat something and you'll have a meal with friends.

That's the best way I've found.

I know you are having a struggle with the whole cooking component of this diet,

but if you take steps towards it, a bit at a time, you will be able to cook

delicious foods in a short time. Maybe try one new recipe every few weeks.

Pick a cut of meat or fish you want to have and look for internet recipes that

sound good and you can adjust for the diet. Soon you'll have a repertoire of

meals that you love to eat. Also, maybe break it down into meals: like figuring

out a delicious breakfast or two, then some soups/one-pot meals, and then some

great sauteed meat meals or roasts. I think Child is a great resource.

Hope this helps!
