Gout

[captain_slinky]

Learning to live with gout is easy, as long as you can avoid alcohol, anchovies, asparagus, cauliflower, mushrooms, consommé, herring, meat gravies, broth, bouillon, mussels, sardines, red meats, organ meats, processed meats (hot dogs, lunch meats, etc.), fried foods, roasted nuts, any food cooked in oil (heated oil destroys vitamin E), rich foods (cakes, sugar products, white flour products), dark greens vegetables, dried fruits, fish, caffeine, beans, lentils, eggs, oatmeal, peas, poultry, yeast products, acetaminophen, artificial sweeteners, HFCS, Carbonated soft drinks & fizzy drinks , Cigarettes , Flour (white wheat), Goat, Lamb, Pastries & cakes from white flour, pork, Sugar, Beer, Brown sugar, Deer, Chocolate, Coffee , Custard with white sugar, Jams, Jellies, Liquor , Pasta, Rabbit, Semolina, Table salt refined & iodized, Tea black, Turkey, Breads White / Wheat, White rice, commercial vinegar and low doses of aspirin.

(Which reads like a page out of my own personal recipe book).

So other than those things, I can have ANYTHING I WANT.

Oooooh. That sounds tasty.

What about vegetarian cheese tamales with green chili peppers?

Oh I can *do it*, I'm just wondering where my protein is going to come from? No beans and no eggs and no meat...?

[aurora77]

Hm. Cottage cheese is high protein.

I can find a way to use that knowledge :) I wonder how Ricotta stacks up? I have a pretty good recipe for an all-veggie Lazagna using eggplant as the noodles...

Oh that sounds like a great idea. Ricotta has about the same amount of protein as cottage cheese, but more fat.
