Lectin-Free Creamy Broccoli and Cauliflower Chicken Soup

A few months back my husband found a recipe for a creamy soup with chicken on Facebook. It did look good, so I rewrote it to be Lectin-Free compliant. My husband made some for dinner tonight and I thought you might enjoy eating it too.

Let me know if you liked it or perhaps there is a step in the recipe itself that was confusing. My goal is to make all my recipes understandable so you too can fix them.

Lectin Free Hot Cereal

One of the things I love to eat for breakfast during late fall and winter is hot cereal. Most of us think 'Oatmeal' or 'Cream of Wheat' or something similar. As a kid I really loved Malt-O-Meal. This morning was cold (we got our first snow last night) and I needed ( NEEDED ) Hot Cereal for breakfast, so last night I put together my mini size crock pot with Sorghum and Millet grain. It turned out OH SO GOOD! Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Lectins - What are they?

Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins. They have been around for thousands of years. Through trial and error, any animal, including man, learned how to avoid the ones that made them feel bad, and eat the ones that didn't. For a detailed discussion of lectins purchase the book, The Plant Paradox by Steven Gundry, MD. There is a specific lectin that has gained a lot of attention these days, but is really just a minor player: gluten . Many people assume that manufactured foods that are called "gluten-free" are also grain free. Not so. Where wheat, barley, and rye are eliminated, when you look at ingredients, you will probably find they have been replaced with corn, rice, or teff; which all contain forms of lectins similar to gluten. Other products often found in them may include soy or other bean flours, which of course also contain lectins. ...

Lectin Free Mini Baked Omlets

Occasionally I get tired of eating gluten free muffins for breakfast, so I have come up with another way to utilize my muffin pans. (By the way if anyone is wanting a gift suggestion for me, I could use a new set of muffin pans. Mine are getting pretty worn out.) These mini omelets can be made and frozen in a ziploc bag to be used on those mornings when time is short or you just don't feel like cooking anything. Of course, they are awesome right out of the oven. Because I eat the Plant Paradox diet I only use goat products unless it is a very aged, hard cheese that has fermented and and that fermentation process has changed the chemical makeup of the cow's milk it is made from. I also use Eggland eggs which are h igher in Vitamin E, Omega-3, Iodine, and Lutein than ordinary eggs. And, I also try and use organic vegetables and fruits. I never believed it made a difference until I had back surgery a...
