I have a large stack of NM Chilis in Freezer Bags right now. I add them to many of my dishes :)

White Egg omelet with NM Green Chili's cooked with Coconut oil topped with Salsa. Sometimes I substitute or add low fat cheese, mushrooms, etc. Yummy

(still 3 major meals). Vegetables make up 50% of my diet now. 1) Yellow, Zucchini, Butternut, Acorn or Spaghetti Squash are…

My son has UC and his "safe foods" are Potatoes, Squash, Oatmeal and Rice. His "bad foods" are Milk, Lettuce and Cheese products. Since he determined this type of categorization it has helped him tremendously.
