Just 5 more days on this low iodine diet and I’m counting down the days!!! This morning I fixed chicken salad for our next two dinners and then Keith will cook for me Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Since I can’t use regular condiments, I made my own mayonnaise following a recipe that I found online. For the most part, I didn’t go through that much trouble but last week I was bored with just plain chicken so I tried it and while it had a bit of a weird taste by itself, it wasn’t bad in the chicken salad. Of course, Keith gets his own non modified chicken salad so I had to make two batches.
Do you think Finn was hoping I’d drop something?!
I imagine you have to read labels very carefully to monitor iodine levels in foods. Are you sticking with mostly fresh produce and meats?
Special diets are such a pain, but it is almost over and you have done well.
Good for you! hang in there–almost over;))) it is so tough to have to eat on a modified diet plan.
Good that you are almost done with it…hugs, Julierose
Yes, Finn is waiting for his share…..just the chicken, Mom…hold the mayo. LOL
