Meal and snack ideas low in protein. Not a huge fan of veggies unless there are new ways to try them! Thanks for your help!

    It sounds like you may be trying to meet a goal set by a doctor. If that's the case, have you considered asking for a referral to an RD? They can be really helping in working with you to create a plan that will meet your special needs and ensure you're meeting your nutritional needs.

    I have chronic kidney disease. I can only have 4-5 servings a day - spread out through the day. Oh how I miss so many things! But i am trying to find my new favorite things and move on from my grief!

    Yes I have a RD I have met with a couple of times but still feel like there are other foods I am missing I could try.

    Please post the handouts/links your RD gave you here so we can see what was already suggested and fill in the gaps.
