decker_bear Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I'm allergic to tomatoes which takes so many things out of the rotation (also on my no-no list is garlic, carrots, celery and pork). There is nothing like a juicy tomato, especially straight out of the garden or from a farmer's market and I really, really miss them. I came up with a recipe for a sauce made from butternut squash I can use to replace tomato sauce, but I just haven't come across anything as satisfying as a fresh tomato. Anyone have a suggestion?

Emvee Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 How are you with red peppers? Roasted red peppers could have be a good sub. Or adding in some citrus fruit, like grapefruit, to your squash sauce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb. Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I agree with you on tomatoes - hard to find a replacement - I don't eat them anymore either. Have you seen the recipes for Nomato Sauce? On the Auto Immune Protocol (AIP) we don't eat nightshades - so there are quite a few good recipes out there for ketchup, BBQ sauce, pasta sauce without tomatoes if you Google "AIP" and then what you're looking for. Some of them are pretty darned good - once you get them in your dish you wouldn't know the difference. http://thecuriouscoconut.com/blog/the-best-no-mato-sauce-autoimmune-paleo-marinara http://www.theprimordialtable.com/2014/01/nomato-sauce.html If you're looking for that fresh tomato vibe in a salad - try watermelon. A watermelon salad with basil (or any herbs), olives, capers, lemon juice and olive oil is pretty amazing. Melon salsa is also delicious.
