I went to a Naturopath yesterday, and we are going to try me on a dairy, gluten, and soy free diet. I did this about 10 years ago with a different Naturopath in my then home-town. I lost lots of weight, and it really made me feel better.
I am looking for recipes! So far she suggested a immune support breakfast made with whole (gluten free) grains, or eggs with fruit. Lots of veggies are recommended with homemade dairy-free dips. Fruit is great, and so are juices (if homemade as well). Nuts, nut butters, and nut milks and rice milk are suggested. So are brown rice and brown rice pastas. I can have lean meats such as chicken, fish, buffalo, and pork. (Beef, I am to avoid.)
Just curious what all-natural recipes you have? I don't want to get bored and fall from this, I think it could literally save my life.
Thanks!

It's hard but it's worth it for your health! The key is to cook... a lot.
Check out worldshealthiestfoods.com and their list of recipes. You can search by including or excluding specific foods or nutrients. There's also a giant cookbook by the site's author that just came out.

Thank you for the information! I have already started compiling a list of this week's meals. Will be a challenge... My family doesn't have to eat quite as strictly as I do, but I know if I get them off of dairy it could help the chronic sinus infections/ear infections/respiratory problems that tend to keep popping up!
Any suggestions when the kids and hubby can eat a little more liberally?

nutritional yeast can be made into a thick creamy cheese sauce for veggies, it is not yeast that is active , when I was a vegan i used it for my pizzas and burritos. when i was doing no gluten I bought alot of gluten free flours at the health food store, with them like brown rice flour and garbanzo bean flour you can make anything from pancakes to brown rice pizza crust, they really taste good too. you might want to invest in your own grain grinder or home grinding mill, by grinding various gluten free grains and nuts like almonds you can make lots of bases for meals, like gluten free doughs, or even your own brown rice raviolis! you can fill with beans and veggies like spinach and onions and mushrooms. you can find loads of recipies on line in forums like this one for people with celiac disease, they cant have any gluten either. i got alot of good recipies on there. anyhow the nutritional yeast worked in replacing dairy for my kids, they liked it sooo much. just add water, almond milk, onion powder and some yellow mustard. heat it up and mixed it untill its creamy. good luck with your new diet and health.

I am trying to do this also because I have found these things don't work well for me, at least the gluten and dairy As far as soy goes I really am staying away from it because I have enough estrogen to deal with LOL.
Anyway, I have been doing a lot of looking also and have had a tough time finding recipes, especially bread recipes. So I am going to have to check out these websites posted also. I have found though that rice milk is pretty good and that is what I have switched to now. I prefer the Rice Dream brand, the others taste funny to me. I am going to give spelt a try also as it is not as harsh as wheat is.
I am glad to know though that someone else has these problems also. Thanks for bringing this up, it is a good thread to follow.
Yeah, spelt is still wheat but it is so post to be able to be easier to digest then regular wheat. I guess it is worth trying inless you have a severe allergy to wheat then it may not be good. Wheat makes me really tired and so that is why I am trying to stop using it, but I am going to give spelt a try and see how it works.
I'd really suggest this book. . . "A Spoonful of Ginger by Nina Simonds." A lot of Chinese food is naturally dairy and gluten free (though you might have to watch out for soy), and she's adapted to to western tastes and kitchens..
Gluten, Dairy, and Soy Free.... Got any recipes? 
here is a link.
