Yeast Free Living

 I started making stir fry several years ago and it is one of the few meals that I did not need to give up when embarking on the candida diet .  Stir fry is a meal that I never really minded cooking even when I was deep in my processed food rut.  Stir fry is quick and easy to cook and it requires very little effort and cooking skill to make a good stir fry.  It is also a very good choice for the candida diet because it is a medley of meat and vegetables which are the best choices for a yeast free lifestyle.  

This is a very basic stir fry recipe.  I like the taste and flavor that garlic so I use a lot of it but you may want to use less according to your taste.  Coincidentally garlic is also really good for the candida diet because it is a natural anti-fungal which helps to kill yeast.  To make preparing this meal even easier I use a frozen bell pepper and onion mix.  These mixes are usually easily found in the frozen food section of the supermarket.  You can of course use fresh bell peppers and onions instead but most of the time I rather not chop if I do not absolutely have to.   This dish goes great with plain brown rice but other side dishes to think about are baked or mashed potatoes.  I have also enjoyed this stir fry without any starch and have just steamed some broccoli as a side dish which is a great choice for candida dieters as we must watch are carbohydrate intake.  I hope that you enjoy my very simple yeast free beef stir fry recipe.
