Since undertaking a low salicylate diet I have craved bolognese and
pasta NON-STOP, I have actually been known to cry because I just want to
eat some bolognese, HAHA! Slightly ridiculous for a grown woman but
what can I say? It's tough not being able to eat the food you truly love
and have grown up with. I found this recipe on Frilly Pants Real
Failsafe Meals http://realfailsafemeals.blogspot.com.au/ and slightly
adapted it. It does contain a small amount of sweet potato which is
moderate in sals but this is optional. I hope you enjoy it as much as I
did <3
Also don't worry if you don't have a Thermomix, put the
ingredients in a food processor and then cook on the stove, hopefully
this will work well, I have only tried it in Thermomix
Ingredients:
1 Can red kidney beans
2 leeks- cut in large chunks
2-3 cloves garlic- peel them and leave whole
a few saffron threads soaked in 1/2 cup water (saffron threads optional, must use water)
1 pear- peeled and cut in half
1/2 sweet potato cut into large chunks (*WARNING mod sals, can be omitted)
2 tablespoons of butter (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon citric acid
1
packet of pasta (I used Gluten/Wheat free Organic Mung Bean Futtucini-
ingredients certified organic green mung beans, water) I found it at Mrs
Flannery's.
Put all ingredients except water and pasta in the Thermomix and pulverise on speed 8 for 8 seconds
Add water with soaked saffron threads
With the MC cup in place cook for 25 minutes on speed 3 at 100 degrees
While
cooking put some water onto boil and make your pasta, strain, mix sauce
in, sprinkle a little cheese that you tolerate on top if you wish.
I found this delicious and has totally fixed my epic cravings for bolognese haha!!
Enjoy :)
If
you would like to have a home demonstration of the Thermomix in action
(and have me cook you and your family/a few friends a 6 course meal,
catering to any food intolerances) in Brisbane please email me on
jessrems@gmail.com and I will be in touch!

Low Salicylate, Fried Leek, Cabbage and Quinoa Dish
Yummy, failsafe, easy to make low salicylate recipe!
Ingredients:
1 cup Quinoa (soak overnight in filtered water, and rinse through a sieve before use) IMPORTANT for proper digestion and removing lectins
2 leeks
250gms of butter or if you can't tolerate butter some cold pressed organic sunflower oil
A bunch of shallots
If you can tolerate moderate sals use a cup of frozen peas as well
1/4- half a cabbage
500gms organic lamb mince (optional is just as nice without)
Method:
Put around 1/2 cups of filtered water in saucepan with rinsed, soaked quinoa on high
Chop up the cabbage, leeks and shallots, if you are using mince start frying it off in butter or oil, once lightly seared throw in the vegetables and put the lid on and simmer for 5 mins
Take off the lid and fry the veggies until lightly golden, add peas if you are using them and mix until soft.
Cook the quinoa until it has soaked up all the water and they are swollen and can see the white rings.
Mix the quinoa with the vegetables and serve!

Yummiest Gluten Free, Low Salicylate Pasta that KIDS WILL LOVE (and adults too)
This is my absolute favourite failsafe pasta dish that I am proud to have invented myself! I adore it and so does my son :)
It is wheat free, gluten free, nut free, low in salicylates (or moderate if you prefer sweet potato) and delicious!
It does contain dairy however goats cheese is generally better tolerated than cows. I find that I can tolerate it ok but I am not as sensitive to dairy as some.
Ingredients:
Put the oven on 200 degrees or around 400 fahrenheit and peel and chop potato/sweet potato into small bite size pieces, about 2cm cubed, place on a baking tray with some oil/butter and some celtic sea salt and put it in the oven until it is nice and golden brown and cooked through.
Place some water onto boil
While it is cooking chop up the leeks and shallots into slices and place in the frying pan on medium heat with a decent amount of butter and cook until golden brown
Once water is boiling cook up the pasta, as soon as it is ready, strain and mix through the fresh goats cheese.
When everything is else is cooked, throw it all into the pot of cooked pasta with goats cheese and mix it all around, put in a little more salt if you feel it needs it.
ENJOY! Such a simple delicious meal. I hope you love it as much as I do :)
I will leave you with some affirmations by the beautiful Louise Hay, say these to yourself throughout the day, in the morning, in bed at night, as you cook and in the shower. Remember to tell yourself that you love yourself and that you accept yourself. Especially in the mirror.
"My life gets more fabulous every day. I look forward to what each new hour brings."
"I am a radiant being, enjoying life to the fullest."
"I know that old, negative patterns no longer limit me. I let them go with ease."
I have really been enjoying reading her books and listening to her audio Cd's, I highly recommend it.
Much support and healing thoughts to you.

Ingredients:
- 1 packet of organic brown rice pasta or Orgran rice, garlic and parsley pasta shells.
- A few potatoes or 1-2 sweet potatoes if you can tolerate something from the moderate salicylate category now and then, I have started introducing sweet potato, pumpkin and peas with success, I love it with sweet potato but fine if you can only use potato.
- Celtic sea salt
- 1 packet of fresh goats cheese (find at health food store or markets, can even be found at normal supermarkets generally now) if you cannot access this use cottage or ricotta cheese
- 250gms of homemade, organic butter from pasture fed cows (you should also be able to get organic butter from your local health food store or markets)
- A bunch of shallots
- 2 leeks
- A small amount of organic, cold pressed sunflower oil or more butter for roasting the potato/sweet potato
