Thank you for the response - an excellent idea.

But, the reason I plan to avoid tomatoes is to
follow the Eat Right 4 Your Type diet, and red
(and green) peppers are on the AVOID list for
my blood type (A).

Thanks again,

Kindrick

How about white pizza? Here are a handful of recipes from Recipe Source:

I prefer the ones that are garlic-sauce based, rather than feta/spinach
combos, though those are good too.

I haven't tried to make any of these, I am lucky that there is an
excellent pizzeria around the corner from me!

HTH, tho'!

[Moderator's note: Not all the results on that recipesource search are
vegetarian, but a fair number of them are, so I'm deeming this post
to be on-topic. ]

Pesto. Cheese-less if you don't eat dairy.

Ooh, interesting. I'm blood group A(-), and I have a severe
dislike of all peppers (to the point of being ill after them
when eaten accidentally most of the time), and although I like
uncooked tomatoes, I also appear to be starting to get a bit
of an odd reaction to them. (blistered tongue!) I had been
assuming that the tomato thing was to do with pesticides, but
it could be the tomato itself.

Maybe I should have a look at this list of foods some time.

But I love peppers and chiles of all kinds. And I eat them often and
have never noticed a problem.

So... could there be exceptions to the ER4YT lists?

I have no clue what you can and can't eat.

Why don't you try looking at the possible vegetables you're allowing
yourself to eat annd think about which ones would make an interesting
puree? Caramelized onions would be tasty. Pesto is also quite nice.

I don't know much about the Eat Right plan as yet, but what I
do know is:

1) Type A's are supposedly susceptible to heart disease,

2) I (in my late 60's) am experiencing some symptoms that
could indicate heart problems, and

3) I usually eat many foods that are on the AVOID list for
type A's, notably tomatoes, potatoes, egg plant, peppers,
eggplant, wheat, cabbage and others.

So we (both type A) plan to follow the diet for some time, even
though I have often said I would give up ice cream (also on the
type A AVOID list) before I would give up potatoes. :-)

Maybe I should have a look at this list of foods some time.

Well, I know practically nothing about it as yet. But there
always seems to be exceptions in this old world!

Kindrick Well, I know practically nothing about it as yet. But
Kindrick there always seems to be exceptions in this old world!

Is it just me, or does the ER4YT site reek of jargon-filled quackery?
"Don't eat that, it'll frob your frippentides. Especially on
Tuesdays." Ye gods, plain old black pepper isn't recommended for
ANYONE. Sure, some of the suggestions are good ones for everybody, but
the whole gimmicky bit about blood types starts me looking for the
Three Card Monte game.

I know, I'll start my soon-to-be-patented, Acquired Tastes Diet. You
know, stuff like olives, anchovies and haggis. I haven't decided yet
if the diet should consist of things you have already acquired a taste
for, or only new things you haven't tried yet, and won't like the
first time. The first version might be too easy, and the latter too
hard for newbies to actually get in to. The diet possibilities are
better that way though, since people will eat less when told that
their body type indicates a need for large quantities of pickled eggs
and habanero chiles. Hmm... which is more likely to get my new book on
the Dr. Phil show? grin

Cheers!

I did a brief look and it appears to be total hogwash. I'm Type O; if
I followed that diet, I'd be a "hunter-gatherer" who ate meat a lot
and avoided grains.


I'm Type O too, but my bullshit-detector went off when I read:

"If your blood type is O, enjoy your best health on a high protein,
low carbohydrate diet, and make sure you get plenty of animal protein.
Carry this guide with you ... to avoid putting on those extra pounds
or feeling unwell from eating the wrong thing."

My first step in getting my asthma under control was to _stop_ eating
land-animal proteins (whereupon I lost a lot of extra pounds, too), so
this advice does not apply to all Type-O types.

And don't get me started on blood-group astrology....

Another good thing to do with pizza is spread some garlic puree over the
edges before putting on the main toppings. It makes the crust very tasty.
This might work for the tomato-less case too. I use bought puree from a
tube - I think freshly-made would be too pungent.

Ooh, caramelized onion would be great on a pizza with some sliced veggie
sausage (Cauldron Foods do some great veggie sausages). I think I'd
really want tomato on it too though
