What are Lectins?

Dr. Gundry, my health hero and the author of The Plant Paradox, has just posted a video on YouTube about what lectins are and why are they bad for you.  He explains it so simply.  Take a moment to watch it.

Grain-Free, Sugar-Free and Lactose-Free MAGIC COOKIE BARS

Magic Cookie Bars were always a favorite of mine when I was growing up and then I made them for my own children.  Wanting to be able to experience the same awesome taste as a Lectin Free eater I went to town making it compliable.  Make sure you plan ahead, because they do need to sit in the refrigerator overnight before cutting into their chocolaty goodness. 

Plant Paradox friendly Jerusalem Style Bagels

Earlier this year two of my friends took a guided tour to Israel.  They saw and ate many things, but the food they remembered the most were the "Jerusalem Style Bagels" that they ate most mornings for breakfast.   I found the traditional recipe online, and reworked it to be Plant Paradox friendly.  They are always a big hit when I make them, like I did yesterday for my Sunday morning Bible class.   I eat them dipped in oil, oil & vinegar, spread with butter, or a soft goat cheese product.  The following recipe can also be modified to include sourdough starter (3/4 cup and reduce the flour by about the same amount.)  Enjoy making them, and please enjoy eating them! 😄

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.
