Dairy-Free and Low Carb

dominirican128

I have inflammation in/around my spine ans the doctor told me to go dairy-free and Low to no pasta, bread, or rice since they are natural inflammatory agents.. i can deal without the breads mostly.. but the dairy is so hard. Everything has some type of dairy.. does anyone have any recipes?

My boss is dairy free and I have another coworker who is vegan. They both really like the recipes from the blog The Minimalist Baker.

I'm dairy free because by body can't tolerate it anymore. I don't really have any specific recipes, I just leave it out. My diet consist of mostly lean meats and veggies. Instead of pasta, I have spaghetti squash, zoodles, or even shiratki noodles. cauliflower rice is also pretty good. I use almond milk for cereal, shakes, baking. I find that the almond/cashew nut blend tastes pretty similar to milk. I like coconut milk "ice cream". It's more creamy than the almond or soy varieties. I still haven't found a suitable replacement for cheese :-( I really like skinnytaste.com for recipes. Everything I've tried has been delicious.

I would cut someone who made me give up dairy or carbs, but I do like some of the recipes on the Oh She Glows and Thug Kitchen blogs.

I second Skinnytaste, Gina makes some killer recipes and she likes to make sure there are plenty for vegans, low carb, dairy free, etc.

Violife do a good dairy free cheese (in uk, not sure where you are) as does Vegusto. I prefer the cheeses that aren't soy based but rather coconut oil based. Violife is bloody lovely once you get used to it. They do cheddar, Parmasan, mozzarella, and cream cheese. At first I think I won't like it but I try it again and then I can't stop picking at the stuff!
