Candida Diet Recipes for Yeast Intolerances

Aug 14 2010 Published by Renée Benzaim under yeast free recipes


Candida Diet Recipes are NOT Hard to Find – or Make!

Sometimes it can be frustrating when you go through your recipe box and cookbooks and you discover how many recipes actually use foods that promote yeast intolerances.  Your selection of candida diet recipes may be limited.

However, most recipes can be adapted and you can end up with a great collection of yeast free recipes.

When you are ready to begin your diet for candidiasis, the first thing you will probably do is go through your kitchen and get rid of everything that doesn’t fit into your yeast free diet plan. Once you see what you have to work with, your creativity will take over. It’s really not that hard to create your own candida diet recipes.

Candida Diet Recipes to Start Your Collection!

Here are a few recipes to get you started. A Semolina Flat Bread recipe that can be used in a variety of ways (as long as you aren’t wheat intolerant also), a delicious Shirred Egg recipe for breakfast, Split Pea Soup for lunch, and a delicious Chicken Stew for a hearty and heart-warming dinner which can be served with, or over, the Basic Brown Rice.

Semolina Flat Bread

This is a great addition to your collection of candida diet recipes as it can be used in many ways in the place of yeast breads. I love to use them for Chicken Tacos! Yumm!!

Ingredients:

3/4 cup whole wheat flour

3/4 cup semolina

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 cup cold water

Directions:

1. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl

2. Gradually add enough water to make a soft dough

3. Knead in the bowl about 8 minutes

4. Shape the dough into a ball, in the bowl, and cover with a clean damp towel

5. Let it rest in a warm (74 – 80 degrees F) draft free place for 5 minutes

6. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 2 ounces each

7. Place the balls on a board or counter top sprinkled with semolina

8. Flatten each ball with your fingertips and, using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a circle 6 1/2″ in diameter

9. Over medium heat, preheat a heavy skillet or griddle

10. Bake the breads one at a time. Keep the ones you aren’t baking covered with a damp cloth so they don’t dry out

11. Bake each bread until the bottom is lightly golden, about 1-1/2 minutes, and you can see bubble on the top.

12. Turn over and bake until lightly browned, about 10 seconds.

13. Removed to a towel lined platter to keep warm and pliable

These are great and can be used in many different ways. If you want them more crispy, don’t cover them in a towel after you have baked them.
