Having to avoid nightshades is frankly annoying. Back in my pre-Hashimotos days when I was running 20-30 miles per week and cutting whole bags of jalapeños onto every meal I also enjoyed a nice fat burger with mushrooms, blue cheese and hot chips (French fries). […]
Who loves guac?! Personally, I love guacamole… but I truly do not enjoy the speed at which I have to consume it so it does not turn brown. Once in a while I will make fermented kefir guac which doesn’t brown, but I can no […]
