Thai Almond Sauce

This was delicious, except I think I'm not quite ready for something quite so "sticky" on my esophagus ... because as I said before, that's where the problem is, and after eating the yummy yummy almond sauce, I felt vague tightness in the throat. I should just stick with whole washed nuts and whole vegies and forget that almond butter exists for just a while longer.

Thai Almond Sauce

3 tablespoons coconut oil

3 tablespoons almond butter

1 1/2 tablespoons minced ginger

1/2 onion, sliced

5 cloves garlic, sliced or minced

1 baby zucchini, sliced

1 baby yellow squash, sliced

3-4 ribs celery, sliced

sea salt

pre-cut the vegies

heat the almond butter and coconut oil over low heat

continually stirring, sautee the onion, garlic and ginger ... then add in the remaining vegies and seasonings.
some additional water will be necessary to prevent burning

yum, there's nothing like young and tender asparagus!

serve with brown rice, or just eat it plain with vegies like me :)

Feasting on Spaghetti Squash

Sometimes a person can eat yellow squash but for some reason, as it is a summer squash unlike zucchini, it has something (probably more starchy) that messes with people with actute candida. The other squashes are extremely starchy, which is too bad, because they're also full of vitamin A, which most people with candida need more of, myself included. Spaghetti squash is recommended as a diet food, and for some, as a pasta replacement as its calorie per serving is much lower. The spaghetti squash, when baked, forks out of the shell in long strand-like spaghettis, hence its name. As for nutrition, it's not like other winter squash in nutrition but neither is it anywhere near as starchy. According to the US Dept of Agriculture (USDA) nutrient database, 1 cup of cooked spaghetti squash provides 42 calories, 0.4 grams of fat, 1 g of protein, 10 g of carbohydrate (4 g as sugar - so sto...
