Yeast Free Living

So I went to the doctor right after I dropped off the kids this morning.  I was so scared that I would have to take antibiotics but fortunately the strep test was negative and my chest was clear. They diagnosed me with a viral infection (common cold) and suggested I get some over the counter medicine to suppress my cough as all of my coughing is irritation my chest and throat.  I probably should have dragged myself to Whole Foods to try to find a candida friendly cough medicine but I just stopped at CVS and got the Tussin DM with all of the corn syrup.  I hope that you guys are not too disappointed, I just really want to stop coughing and finally get some sleep.  I was up late last night again and do not want another night of this.  I know this choice is contrary to the candida diet way but I promise to get back on task as soon as I can get some sleep. 

The Homemade Yeast Free Hamburger Helper came out great last night.  Everyone was thrilled with it so it will become a regular part of the candida diet menu.  Tonight I am going to try a Homemade Yeast Free Chicken Pot Pie.  Pot Pies are another favorite of mine so I hope that I can master a candida diet version.  Have a great day!
