After four weeks of being sick with sinus infections, I'm caving to a three-week diet and acupuncture: no gluten, no dairy, no sugar, no vinegar, no sweet vegetables, no fruit. This is for Anne, too, who is trying to same diet.
Day 1
From October 22, 2011
cod dredged in quinoa flour with collard greens and acorn squash (too sweet for this diet, really)
From October 22, 2011
chicken sausage and more greens
Day 2
From October 22, 2011
haddock with greens and a sauce made from tahini, lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper
I welcome more suggestions.

looks interesting (and delicious!). is it sort of a variation on the paleo diet?

i don't know about the paleo diet. i'm going to look it up. i'm following a candida diet, cleansing the gut and then replenishing with good bacteria/probiotics in week four. the loss of vinegar and caffeine are killing me.

a quick internet search tells me that the candida diet looks interesting indeed. (though i would have a hard time giving up tea + wine!)

you should make a candida-approved version of richard olney's garlic soup! it's one of my favorite recipes of his and it's packed with eggs + garlic so maybe it would fit into your plan?
