Kidney Disease: Any good recipes for someone with a really bad appetite due to illness?


Any good recipes for someone with a really bad appetite due to illness?Hi, I've got lupus and kidney disease and as a result a REALLY bad appetite and often have stomaches. Sometimes I don't eat for most of the day, everything seems so unappealing. I'm also hypoglycemic so I need a fair amount of animal protein in my diet in order to function.

Any suggestions or recipes for a healthy fairy simple LOW SODIUM and easily digestible diet (I've just discovered congee) like soups, stews, porridges that include chicken, beef and fish (veggies welcome too)? Anything other type of dishes are fine too.

Also how do you make chicken and beef really tender and yummy? My diet must be tasty otherwise I just won't eat! I plan on going to grow an herb garden (basil, oregano, mint, cilantro, etc.) I hear using the crockpot is simple and really brings out the flavor in food. Any suggestions are very much appreciated!

DIETARY RESTRICTIONS: eggs, dairy (unless a recipe calls for just a little dairy), white rice/flour/pasta/bread. I'm allowed some but not a whole lot of tomatoes, eggplants and potatoes. I can use some cheese, such as parmesan, as flavoring. I also cannot digest beans, legumes, nuts and seeds. Thank you again!

Well, this isn't a food recipe but it is really good for your body and it helps to give you a boost. I drink it every morning. It is pretty much water, but with some other properties that are very nutritious.
Its called sassy water and it has lemon, ginger, cucumber & spearmint.
