This is why I have a problem with ALL the Rental Diet recipes I see... Back Beans - Yuck! Avocados - Yuck! Cilantro and Cumin - I'll pass! Olive Oil - Yuck! ...And the honey & corn doesn't work with my diabetic diet. (The honey due to its glycemic index and the corn being too high in carbs.) In fact, a lot of recipes for the Renal Diet doesn't comply with the Diabetic Diet. 😞 Now I know that some people might look at a recipe like this and actually find it appetizing, but to me, it looks like something the cat threw up!
"Most" Renal recipes include ingredients like - Chick peas, avocados, black beans, eggplant, squash and Tofu - which many Nephrologist are on the fence as to if a kidney patient should eat Tofu or not. 🤔 It's great that these things are healthy for you, but it does you no good if just the thought of it makes you want to gag, let alone trying to get it down your throat when you HATE the ingredients! 🤢🤢🤢 Needless to say, my choice of foods that are still ok for me to eat is EXTREMELY limited. But you know, you do what you have to do to survive!
