Re: OT: question for practiced quiche bakers

Three years ago my husband's kidney stones couldn't be removed and he had to go on dialysis. They gave me a list of the foods to avoid (low potassium, low sodium, low phosphorus diet) and I thought I'd wind up killing him before I could learn everything I needed to know. I made a chart and put it on the refrigerator so I could mark off each day's meals as to what I had given him to eat (no more than 4 oz of dairy, 4 servings of fruit, two servings of vegetables, 7 servings of starch, only 40 oz of fluids [anything that pours at room temperature], and no CHOCOLATE!

Thank you, Taria, for the link. I didn't know it existed; have it bookmarked for a thorough tour later. Yes, learning to eat healthy is work. Beats the heck out of the alternative, don't you think? Happy discoveries - there's a fat-free cream cheese and a fat-free whipped topping that both do just fine where I've tried them. A tiny few times a year, we eat out and eat "real" food. Would you believe we have a bummer of a sort of hangover from it later.?You just get used to low salt and no fat. Polly

If I am not wrong the recipe I 'used to use' was terrible for cholesterol. Let's see some sort of fat in the crust. CHeese,
eggs and heavy cream in the filling along with bacon. I didn't
often make it but boy is it bad for you. I googled low fat quiche
and found a mess of recipes. Here's one link:

This learning to eat healthy is work ; )
