I have been diagnosed with 'Silent Migraines' and after clean MRI for acoustic neuroma (whew ) am now seeing a neurologist. He has diagnosed the migraines with the first step of identifying triggers. He states that about 50% of his patients are helped with food modifications.
The only foods I am allowed for the next 3 weeks is 'real food' aka NO processed foods; abosolutely NOTHING from a can, out of a box, a bottle, etc. I keep bumping into recipes that require worchester sauce, broth and other such stuff. No matter how much I'd like to, I just can't see myself eating steak, baked potato with butter and salad every day for the next 3 weeks .
Real food not allowed: citrus, pineapple, banana, avocado, aged cheese (mozarella is allowed as is cottage cheese), nuts (seeds OK), yogurt (anything fermented or cultured), soy, yeast, chocolate. Thank goodness I drink only 2 cups of decaf coffee in the morning and gave up alcohol over a year ago for a healthier lifestyle...otherwise I'd be in real trouble .
I just made a chicken thigh casserole with potatoes, veggies and lots of spices & water. While not on par with my steak, it was good. These are the kinds of recipes I'm looking for. I'm not a creative cook so am at a loss and need help.
I tried Googling but they all require some type of sauce or soy. Thanks for any and all suggestions and recipes.
