I am allergic to the bulk of the nightshade family. Yes, I went into official mourning for potatoes and tomatoes.
But for some of my tomato cookery, I have a solution to tomato sauce! I can make passable red spaghetti sauce, or lasagna now without tomatoes. It is also non-dairy and gluten free.
Any other allergic sorts interested?
A few other solutions I will share on request:
(1) a yummy mash of white sweet potatoes and rutabagas so I can get my share of "potatoes" and giblet gravy in the holidays.
(2) Millet bread - a passible grainy almost corn bread for those who cannot endure corn products.
(3) An egg free chocolate cake.
I don't want to burden the group if there is no interest; still feeling my way here!
