Why it works
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Seasoned with thyme, chives and salt — no soy or seaweed anywhere.
- Celiac disease: A grain-free plate: turkey patties, mash and beans, no flour or breadcrumbs.
- IBS: Garlic-infused oil gives flavor without garlic pieces; parsnips and green beans keep it easy going.
- Milk allergy: Olive oil makes the mash creamy — no milk, butter or cheese.
- Wheat allergy: No wheat anywhere: the patties hold together on their own.
- Egg allergy: The patties bind with nothing but turkey and herbs — no eggs.
- Gluten-free: Naturally gluten-free plate: meat, vegetables, herbs and olive oil.
- Anti-inflammatory: Lean turkey, green vegetables and olive oil, cooked gently.
- Egg-free: Egg-free as written; the mash is bound by the parsnips themselves.
- Dairy-free: Garlic-infused olive oil stands in for butter in the mash.
- No spicy food: Herbs only — thyme and chives, no pepper or heat.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
