tbsp each olive oil and coconut oil? Sounds great!

I added two new sites to the first message. I'm glad you guys have a place to discuss.

man! cute avatar!!!

how about a substitute for soy sauce? anybody else ever wished you could still use it?

I've thought about maybe very condensed vegi broth? (maybe with some salt and seasonings added)

It would be such a huge help... If you know of a prepped one, please pass along the name. If not, maybe we can come up with a recipe for it.

You could get some dulse and put it into a vitamix with a little water, olive oil, and a smidge of molasses....??

I will try to whip some up tonight and let you know how it tastes! We are pretty good at figuring out subs for stuff... just takes some playing around with!


oh... is it cause he is allergic to soy?

yep. soy allergy

I don't know what dulse it..

I read somewhere that molasses and vinager is a good soy sauce sub.  I'll see if I can figure out where I read it.

Here it is. From http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.co...ch?q=soy+sauce

For a soy sauce sub I use a dab of molasses in a little broth with a splash of balsamic vinegar, and Worcestershire. I might add some sea salt or red pepper spice.



but doesn't Worchestershire have soy in it?

I would go with abbi's suggestion!.... Mine turned out yummy......but tasted more like an asian pesto.

dh liked it...... and ds thought it was fun dumping it on the floor.




dulse is a type of seaweed.... i actually didn't use it. Instead, i used 3 sheets of nori (another seaweed)

okay.... how come no ones been on this thread???

So, i ordered the Food allergy survival guide. And, for whatever reason, the website processed the order twice. So, i have an extra copy.... pm me if you want it. ( i know you have all been talking about it)

* btw , i posted this here, because it is the most relevant to the receent conversation...

sorry. Our allergist visit didn't leave me with much new information, so we're *still* in a holding pattern as far as eating goes.

That plus hurting my ankle, starting the kids with swimming, having the break, and some other personal things have taken up most of my resources for the last couple of weeks.

What do you think of the book?? I was really impressed by it, but need to be very careful about how I use legumes and seeds with ds.. so I haven't actually done a lot of trying out recipes yet.

I got vegan with a vengance from the library today and I am soooooooo frustrated. It has a good scone recipe that I want to try, but most of the recipes have soy . and not just soy milk, but yogurt and tofu. I hate tofu becasue it is so hard to subsitute.

We had toast tonight with the cocnut/olive oile "butter" and it was great!!!! so nice to have toast again!

I pulled out my book again tonight and got inspired.. it really is well put together.

However, I decided to go ahead and challenge Caleb with some legumes/peas since they are foundational ingredients.

He reacted to chick peas instantly.

Do any of you have the Gluten-Free Vegetarian Kitchen? I just got it from our new library. The recipes look good so far and they mark all the Vegan ones.
