On the road to an ideal state of health, people often have to make rather large changes in their diets. This can be a traumatic experience when many of our favourite foods need to be tossed to the wayside; sometimes this is only temporarily, but often for good. Lactose intolerance, for example, brings with it a whole list of foods that need to be avoided. Happily, many people find that when they give up dairy products their overall health and well-being improves. Many of us have minor hidden intolerances that are affecting our health without our being aware of it.
This recipe was created out of a need to make some substitutions for a client’s state of mind: She loved creamy sauces but had to give them up when she found that dairy was no longer agreeing with her and this left her quite depressed. I came up with a way to give her what she wants with a dairy-free substitution.
This recipe uses coconut milk instead of dairy. While it’s not a foolproof substitution, it is quite delicious. Plus the saturated fats in the coconut milk are healthy, energy delivering medium-chain triglycerides, which are also incredibly valuable to the immune system.
