Make Extra

One of the best tips that I can give someone who is adjusting to food allergies or sensitivities is whenever possible double or even triple some of your favorite recipes and Keep your freezer stocked with meals that can quickly be used for those days, when you just don't have time to cook.

Here are a few of things I freeze:

  • Shepherd's Pie (various varieties)
  • Chicken Green Chili
  • Turkey Meatloaf and Turkey Burgers
  • Soups
  • Banana Bread & Pumpkin Bread
  • Cooked Chicken or Turkey that can be used in Recipes
  • Cream of Mushroom Soup/ Dairy Free
  • Spaghetti Sauce
This should just give you some ideas.  The list is endless...   The more you make it convenient and delicious to eat at home, the more you will enjoy it.  The fact is, with food allergies it is easier to eat at home.   I don't want you to think that you cannot eat out.  You can, and I sometimes do...The problem is that you are limited in what you can eat and it is often challenging figuring it all out.  Plus, it is sometimes hard to have everyone around you eating things that you would like to eat, but are not allowed to.
