I took the recipe off the box and changed it so each muffin would have more protein and zero added sugar. Each muffin also has 5g of fiber which is great!

You might think, “wow, this is pretty high in oxalate, Jill.”Yes, it is. But remember that you have 100 mg/day (unless your doctor has told you otherwise) and you will have this with a calcium-containing beverage and watch your oxalate throughout the day. NO PROBLEM.
This dish is very low oxalate, yet satisfying and filling. I got 12 meatballs out of the recipe, depending on how big or small you make yours the quantity might differ. If you don’t want to use parm, you could use a bit of feta for a nice Greek flair. Know that the sodium might be a bit higher, but if used in a smaller portion size is totally doable.
Who doesn’t love some elbow macaroni? I used Banza chickpea pasta for this dish as I wanted the extra fiber and protein it provides that regular pasta does not. This is a wonderfully comforting dish that is low sodium and kidney stone diet safe. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
I made this to show you that you can certainly still enjoy peanut butter. Many of you think you must never have it again on a low oxalate diet. Most of you can safely eat 100 mg/ox per day so you can definitely have these as a satisfying treat if you like. If peanut butter …
I like a smoothie as a way to get my added calcium. Kefir is a drinkable yogurt that’s lactose-free. If you don’t do dairy, use your favorite calcium-fortified non-dairy beverage for this smoothie.

My patients are constantly telling me that they miss mashed potatoes. At the end of the day, I think it’s the texture we miss so much. This recipe is my solution.
To make this recipe vegan, simply substitute the parmesan for nutritional yeast. I like this as a side dish or main course. As the main course, I add chicken or turkey to it. This provides a good amount of fiber and fiber is very important for your colon health. Fiber is key in keeping your …

I love having breakfast for lunch or a snack and this wrap satisfies. They are kidney stone diet simple, safe, and satisfying. Notice that lower carb tortillas can definitely be higher in sodium.

Everyone needs to have a burger here and there. This one is a 4ounce turkey burger, but you can have whatever meat you like.

I love chicken soup. It is the ultimate low cal, comfort food. I also love that I can find pre-cut soup veggies at Trader Joe’s and a rotisserie chicken at the market, which is a huge time saver. I used the lowest sodium stock I could find at 35 mg/cup. The rotisserie chicken I picked …
I am writing this during the pandemic and have found that I have too many bananas in my house that need to be dealt with right now. I also had a sugar tooth, so I thought I’d whip up some no-added-sugar cookies. Think banana bread but in cookie form! As you can imagine, I do …
