Hey Damo....

Just remember that those yeastie beasties are starving all the time and when they are dying off, they secrete poisons that make us crave sugar, starches, etc. So really that is why they are called comfort foods, cause they satisfy the yeast. So remember when you get those cravings, it is not really a hardship at all to deny them, you are killing the yeastie beasties and doing your body and health a REALLY GOOD DEED.

And have you tried the pumpkin flax muffins, they really do the trick for me, smeared with a bit of almond butter or pumpkin butter if you are really feeling decadent.

Pumpkin Muffins with lots of fibre..

no dairy, no sugar, no gluten
3 T organic olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup pumpkin
Beat these 3 ingredients together, and then add:

3 tsp. stevia dissolved in 1/4c of water
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

Mix the following together and add to the above:
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup ground flaxseed meal (make sure this is as fresh as possible)
1/4 cup amaranth (or your preferred) flour
4 oz. chopped nuts (optional)

Mix all ingredients together quickly and immediately spoon into muffin pan/papers. Mixture will start to expand as lemon juice reacts with baking powder and soda. Bake at 350º for 20 mins. This recipe makes 12 muffins; however, you may also double the recipe and get 18-20 larger size muffins.

Hope this helps,
Sandi
