Veggie Stock

I have complained before how much I hate that I can no longer eat fruits and vegetables that are not pureed. I have recently started making vegetable stock that is clear. I have to strain it. Sometimes I cook my ramen noodles in it and other times I drink like a tea. Here I have mixed a package of Gerber baby food carrots. It was yummy and partially satisfied my yen for veggies.

You made it look very good!

[Corinne C]

A great idea as a snack too!

[Judith Johnson]

It looks very tasty, and what a lovely cup

[Linda Godwin]

Looks mango colored, hopefully its good tasting

[Beryl Lloyd]

A good idea and nourishing !

[Dianne]

Nice you could enjoy it.

[Islandgirl]

What a great idea!

[Betsey]

Good work!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

good idea

[Lou Ann]

I’m glad you can find ways to get the nutrients from vegetables, at least!

[Rick]

Interesting soup. Great shot.

[Shutterbug]

That has got to be hard and no wonder you have a yearning for carrots. We’re supposed to have at least 7 1/2 cup servings of fruits and veg a day. Is this a temporary thing? I hope so.

[Rob Z]

That must cause major changes in how you eat - not at all easy to get used to...

[Casablanca]

Interesting and I am sure it does you the power of good. Hard when life changes, especially around food. Wishing you all the best.

[Issi Bannerman]

Must be so difficult not to be able to eat fresh fruit and veg. This sounds like a good way to satisfy that yearning, just a bit!

@shutterbug49 I have a semi-blocked bowel from radiation treatment a few years ago. There is no cure.

[Dione Giorgio]

[Oli Lindenskov]

I would be devastated if I couldn't have fruit and veggies. You are good to find alternative ways to include them in your diet.

[Fisher Family]

Very frustrating not to be able to eat the vegetables that you want, but this looks a good substitute.

Nice shot. I'm glad it was some what satisfying

[Beverley]

Yummy… I’d love it

[Margaret Brown]

That looks yummy

[Granagringa]

you've made it look enticing..especially the sparkling cup

[KWind]

Very clever way to get your veggies! Makes a neat shot too.

[haskar]

Great idea! It has a beautiful color and a nice cup.

[CC Folk]

This is a lot of work to get your fruits and veggies but at least you can still get the taste and nutrients you need.

I know how hard you work to keep your digestion in working order but you always manage to find creative ways to accomplish that. Being AIP now is challenging me to do the same! Although I would not call myself a vegan, I'm sure glad for so many vegan alternatives now for dairy that I can't have on AIP. Makes me think it's a long term solution even when I don't have to be so strict. Keep on puree-ing!

[Louise & Ken]

"Going without" would be so difficult! I make a chicken stock with leftover bones and vegetables...then strain the broth. In my case, I can eat the veggies, so I puree them and freeze them as cubes to add to to my "broth tea"!

[Joan Robillard]

@Weezilou I could attempt to puree them also but they look so washed out I haven't. All that is left is the fiber which is what I try to avoid. 20 hours in a crock pot does them in.
