Just made gazpacho yesterday in my Vita-Mix. It is sooooo good with the organic locally grown produce!! I love summer!
hI, that has tomatos? Oh dear I love them, but believe the 'night shade' veggies give me 'flares' , ?????Does anyone else see a diff when you eat tomatoes, potatoes, bell peppers, egg plant, etc. me. I do not have a problem with the night shade veggies. I wonder if I do not since I am not pre-disposed to food allergies. I am Italian (yes an Italian cheesehead lol) and cook a lot of Italian food that of course is tomato based and has tomatoes in it. Or I have built up a tolerance to night shade veggies since I use them so much.
Sounds really good. Love gazpacho. Night shades don't seem to bother me. Am waiting for fresh tomatoes to come on. We're in the desert SW and haven't seen a fresh tomatoe. Cherrys just hit the stores about 2 weeks ago.
I don't think they bother me even with the Crohns......but then maybe thats why i never feel good??? I eat mostly only veggies, fruits, protein so don't really wanna cut out anything healty :)
I love love love summer fresh summer fruits and veggies and all the fresh herbs from the garden
I love fresh produce..tomatoes, squash, and watermelon can't wait for those to come in...I can eat a huge one all by myself!I have never done an elimination diet with regard to nightshades, cause I know I could never stop eating tomatos. I could eat them like apples (and did when I was a kid).
I am not sure that whatever little relief I would get would make up for missing out on some of my favorite veggies.
I know RD have differing opinions on this, but mine says nightshades don't make a difference, so I'm sticking with him.
