Title: Renal Friendly Foods
Post by: LarryG on November 13, 2011, 01:04:01 PM
 It is the holidays in some places. Thinking about renal friendly foods. Everytime at Thanksgiving our in center would have stringent rules about what to eat and not to eat during the holidays. We did find some pretty good desserts in some of the renal cookbooks. A cranberry upside-down cake that was excellent. Anyone want to share a favorite renal friendly food or recipe?

I'm going to have a piece of REAL Pumpkin Pie and then go to dialysis. 

The receipe they gave me for pumpkin cheese cake made me laugh.... 2 tablespoons of pumpkin.  NO!  That is where I put my foot down.  I'm having a real piece of pumpkin pie and I can't wait.

Then it's time to hook up to the NxStage and watch football.   ;D

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cups canned pumpkin puree
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup fresh or frozen whole cranberries

Directions:
Preheat over to 350 F
Combine flour, pumpkin pie spice & baking powder in a large bowl
Combine eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree and oil in a small mixing bowl.
Beat until blended.
Add pumpkin mixture to flour mixture.
Stir until just moistened then fold in cranberries.
Spoon batter into 2 greased 9" x 5" loaf pans.
Bake for 55 to 60 minutes.
Cool in pans for 5 to 10 minutes.
Remove to wire rack to cool before slicing.
