[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 594634, member: 1233"] BEFORE she goes girlfriend she should at least consider an elimination diet. You eliminate one food and then introduce it after a couple of weeks to see if the body reacts. They are hugely helpful, in my opinion. Googling elimination diet should give her a lot of good information. The allergy doctor we see is adamant about doing the elim diet before going girlfriend or CF diets because simply going girlfriend or CF or both does not give you specific info. You can be allergic or intolerant of wheat but fine with other foods with gluten but you won't have a clue unless you do the elim diet first. There are some amazing websites with girlfriend recipes. We are not girlfriend but I love recipes and cookbooks. Here is a recipe that I found that is really really great and my family was shocked that it was girlfriend. [U]Where's the Crust Pizza[/U] Crust: Combine thoroughly and press into bottom of greased 9X13 pan 8 oz REG cream cheese (Do NOT use low fat or fat free) 2 eggs 1/4 c grated parmesan 1/4 tsp black pepper 1 tsp garlic powder Bake 12-15 min at 350 degrees until golden brown. Let cool 10 min. Spread 1/2 c pizza sauce on crust. Sprinkle 1 1/2 c shredded mozzarella on top of sauce. Add whatever other toppings you like. Sprinkle a bit of garlic powder over everything to taste. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 min until cheese is melted. This is amazing even when you use the cheap sawdust parmesan. husband loves it on popcorn and so do the kids so we had a big thing of it from Sam's. I bought a block of parmesan to grate but when the kids made the recipe they used the cheap stuff. I was surprised that it was so good. Esp as I am a bread lover. Cream cheese is crazy expensive right now. We go through quite a bit, so I buy it at Sam's. It is $2.25 for 8 oz at the grocery and $6.48 at our Sams. They also have very inexpensive other cheeses. Esp the grated bags of cheddar, mozzarella, and colby jack that I buy because husband hides the grater if I use it. The website is [url]http://www.plainchicken.com/[/url] and while it is not girlfriend, it does have some girlfriend recipes that seem as good as this one. Plus non girlfriend recipes that we have loved. There are other boards that are totally girlfriend and/or cf free recipes and those can be super helpful also. Most seem like they are 'real people food' and not something some health nut dreamed up that seems more like horse feed than human food. NOT knocking horse feed, but it is for horses, Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
