👩🏻‍🍳 COOKING FOR SANDY DAY
3 days a week, I cook meals for a neighbor who had a stroke last year and has limited mobility. We often share a meal kit or something similar and spend some time together since neither of us go out too much 😁 Today is one of her days. I’m enjoying having someone to cook for again.

DELUXE CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH w FRESH FIGS
*She ate all of her lunch, liked the figs and we planned her Sat meal 😁

🟢 – contains only Lvl 0️⃣ histamine foods
🟡 – contains some Lvl 1️⃣ histamine foods
🟠 – contains some Lvl 2️⃣ histamine foods
