It is the time of year when eating can negatively affect those with CKD or Diabetes. I have gone to a mostly plant-based diet because I feel best when I eat that way. I don’t have Diabetes, but I do have CKD.
This recipe is from Lord Byron’s Kitchen, that I altered to meet my needs. I am making this tonight and it makes a lot. I will serve some to my family and the rest will go for lunches over the weekend when I work outside the home. I use frozen veggies that are best for CKD. I like to buy the big bag of frozen veggies that have Cauliflower, Carrots, and Broccoli in the bag. I could also use corn, green beans or squash. Remember that the green veggies are going to be higher in Potassium, so you may need to exclude them. You can also make your own Cream of Chicken, or Mushroom soup. I personally don’t care for Cream of Mushroom and use the chicken or celery version. I can also buy low sodium and low fat as well. For the recipe, I don’t add the salt, and I used Italian style bread crumbs instead of the French Fried Onions because I didn’t have any. Making homemade bread crumbs, or French Fried Onions would save on preservatives added and phosphorus. I also didn’t add as much cheese as the recipe called for. I was already close to my protein limit so I didn’t need the added protein in the cheese. Vegan cheese could also be used, but I have not tried that yet. Cheese is also very high in sodium. This can be made ahead and frozen for holiday parties. I hate going to a party and there is nothing there I feel comfortable eating, or I have to starve all day just to be able to eat. Can you relate? Let me know if you try it, and how you like it. I could not find serving sizes on the website with the original recipe. I can safely assume 1 cup would be a good serving size for this type of dish.

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I cone across a blog that’s both equall educative and engaging, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the nwil
on the head. The problem is somesthing not enough people are speaking intelligentrly
about. I’m very hhappy that I cqme across ths during my hunt for something concernihg this.
