Cheesy Egg Casserole
The perfect recipe for someone with fibro! Three ingredients. Mix them, put em in a dish. Bake it. Eat. And it’s still good as a leftover!
- Shredded cheese
- 2 cans green chilies
- 6 eggs
Recipe
- Break eggs into a large bowl.
- Add cheese and green chilies.
- Mix well.
- Pour into a casserole dish.
I literally cannot recommend organic, free range, farm fresh eggs enough, for a variety of reasons (one being your health). If you haven’t educated yourself on your food sources, trust me… you don’t want to eat eggs from factory farms.
The pictured dish has a can of diced tomatoes added. Just dump in with the cheese and green chilies, and you’ve added another veggie to your meal!
Try it with your favorite salsa on top and prepare to be astounded and amazed!

Expect the Unexpected
I am admittedly currently experiencing writer's block. There is simply so much that I want to say regarding food and my many health issues that it's rather overwhelming- and I made the mistake of not organizing my ideas in a list. (I love lists!)
Add to that the increasing number of food allergies I have developed over the last few years: cucumber, raw tomato, wheat, rice, garlic, lettuce, soy, ice cream.... and more that I haven't yet figured out. You have a recipe for depression and hunger!
In a nutshell, I am starting this blog to help those out there with medical issues like fibromyalgia feel better by feeding their bodies the fuel it needs. A number of blogs I follow leave me feeling down, as they are written by "normal" people with energy to cook every day.
Add to that the increasing number of food allergies I have developed over the last few years: cucumber, raw tomato, wheat, rice, garlic, lettuce, soy, ice cream.... and more that I haven't yet figured out. You have a recipe for depression and hunger!
A severe latex allergy also has me avoiding some highly cross-reactive foods such as avocado. I'll be developing another blog regarding latex allergy- in the meantime PLEASE avoid latex and rubber products as much as possible! Trust me, you don't want to have to wear a gas mask every time you leave the house so you don't die.
So I have this fairly limited diet, but I've found a recipe box full of safe recipes to try. The problem, of course, is that I haven't had the energy to try most of them! I'm praying that this blog will help motivate me a bit in the right direction, as when I don't cook I often "cheat" and pay the price in all sorts of non-Martha Stewart ways.
One of the requirements of my recipes is that they are easy and the leftovers keep for at least four days. I would LOVE to be one of those women that cook one day, all day, once a month.... but only time will tell. Stay tuned for recipes, information, and musings about life with a bajillion food allergies- and please let me know if you have any recipes that I can use!
