A moist cake with a little fiery kick of ginger, topped with sliced pear and a sprinkle of brown sugar.

So I have to apologize if I'm all over the place on what I am eating these days. I tried incorporating "non-glutenous healthy whole grains" back into my diet and it completely backfired. My digestion completely slowed down - which means I started feeling bloated and icky. Then my cravings and blood sugar swings came back full force. And with that some nasty moods. I was really disappointed as I survived 3 weeks of the Candida diet only to fully regress with what was supposed to be an acceptable Candida friendly food. I didn't even cheat. And I was really enjoying that oatmeal (and it was very small servings btw). So whether its the Candida or I have some carbohydrate intolerance, I am back off the whole grains. Its not worth it. I felt pretty rotten and had to go through a pretty bad day of withdrawal when I cleaned my diet back up. The reason I had decided to re-incorporate grains back into my diet is that I am a hungry gal and keeping myself full and satisfied on the Candida diet is tricky. Its hard to think of and prepare enough things to eat without getting bored or running out of time. Plus I don't want to lose anymore weight and I figured I should replace some of the calories I had to give up when I got cut off of fruit and dairy. But that was not meant to be. So I'm basically restarting the toughest phase of the Candida diet (damn you oatmeal) and I'm making sure I have "bombs" in the fridge to tie me over between meals and give me some calories. What are bombs you ask? They are basically just healthy fat snacks. I first saw "fat bombs" on Pinterest a few months ago. At that time I thought they seemed a little ridiculous - who would want to eat healthy fat snacks just to get some calories. Now I kind of get it. If you are not going to eat processed foods and you work or have kids or any number of activities that keep you from shopping and cooking constantly you need to have snacks on hand that will fill you up and give you some calories when you are on the run if you are going to stick to this diet. This batch I made had coconut oil and lemon oil which are both Candida fighters. If you are going to use coconut oil as an anti-fungal why not jazz it up a bit and let yourself feel like you are getting a treat in the process. They aren't dark chocolate but they aren't half bad. Wish me luck on round two. Candida Killing Coconut Lemon Bombs (makes 15 bombs - 1/2 Tbsp each) 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted 3 Tbsp Hemp Hearts 3 Tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut 6 drops liquid Stevia (without alcohol) 3 drops natural Lemon oil Melt coconut oil in microwave for about 40 seconds on high. Add remaining ingredients. Stir well. Pour into chocolate/candy mold. I have a silicone mold that holds 15. I put 1/2 Tbsp of the mixture into each well. Place in the fridge and chill. Keep refrigerated until ready to eat.

Sou Boreg, like so many Armenian dishes, is this mythical creature that many people talk about eating when they were younger, but would never attempt to make themselves. You can sometimes find it at Armenian markets, usually in the freezer section, and I was amazed to find it available every day on the menu at Brookline Family Restaurant, the Turkish place down the street from me. The biggest reason why you don’t see this more often is because it’s such a time intensive process. This is one of those dishes that, in the old days, the ladies would have gathered together to make in mass quantities, helping each other and gossiping at the same time. While we were making this, my brother hypothesized that such complex dishes were created back in the day to cure boredom and enable gossip time; I favor the idea that they were a way to show off talent (and show off that you had the time to invest in the process) instead. When my mother complained that the process was taking too long, I said that we were at least getting in some bonding time. “Can’t we do something else to bond?” she asked. Anyway, my mother tried making sou boreg from scratch years ago, and she found it to be more of a hassle than anything. Rolling out the dough took forever because it has to be so thin and even. Then, someone suggested using packaged eggroll wrappers instead, cutting out the steps of making and rolling out the dough. Each individual eggroll wrapper must still be boiled for a moment, shocked in ice water, then arranged on a towel to dry, meaning that the shortcut does not make this a quick dish to throw together. But if you have the time, the patience, and an extra set of hands, the reward is a crunchy, cheesy, buttery treat that will make you forget the effort that went into it. The picture below shows the set up for boiling the noodles, with the pots for hot water (in the back), ice water (in the front), and the noodles on the towel. Sou Boreg 2 lbs Muenster cheese, rind removed, grated 8 oz. cottage cheese 1 egg, beaten 1 cup parsley, minced 36 eggroll wrappers 1 ½ sticks butter, melted Butter the bottom and sides of an 11x15 inch baking pan. Combine Muenster cheese, cottage cheese, egg, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Fill another pot or bowl with ice water, and lay a large towel on the counter top next to the stove. Working one at a time, boil the first 18 eggroll wrappers in boiling water for about a minute, until just cooked through (they will fall apart if cooked too long). Transfer to ice water to cool the noodle, then lay flat on the towel to dry. Arrange the 18 noodles in the tray – for this size pan, three noodles per layer (2 whole and one cut in half) – and brush each layer with butter. After six layers, arrange cheese filling in an even layer. Boil and dry the rest of the noodles, then repeat layering over the cheese filling. Cover and refrigerate for at least half an hour. Preheat oven to 400°. Remove tray from fridge and cut into squares. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden. Serve hot.
