The Princess of Wales completed the Three Peaks challenge over the weekend.  The challenge involves a blend of driving and trekking through three of the highest mountain peaks in England, Scotland and Wales--Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Yr Wyddfa. The challenge areas cover 23 miles of walking distance along with a 462 mile drive between each peak.   The challenge is open to the public and many aim to walk to the summit of the peaks within 24 hours.  However, the trek is so grueling and extensive that only 40% of the individuals attempting the challenge are able to complete it within this timeframe.  It is recommended that individuals desiring to complete the Three Peaks Challenge engage in strength training over a period of eight to twelve weeks.

Tomato Free Ketchup (Recipe)

I created this tomato free ketchup for a client with a nightshade allergy. Nightshades are a family of plants that come from the capsicum and solanum families. Typical nightshade vegetables are tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and eggplant. Nightshade plants contain a poisonous substance called solanine. The fruit and vegetable of the plant are safe to eat. However, those with allergies to nightshades or certain nightshade fruits and vegetables must avoid them in their daily diet.

It's very tough to find tomato free foods. tomatoes are usually a base that is found in everything--from soups to sauces. you name it--tomatoes are probably in it. what happens when you have a tomato allergy buy still want to enjoy the taste of ketchup? this tomato free ketchup is suitable for all nightshade allergy sufferers. it's also suitable people who simply avoid tomatoes because of the inflammation that it induces. Yes, there are people who willingly avoid eating nightshades!

You don't have to go ketchup free if you're an allergy sufferer! you can still enjoy a taste similar to ketchup. After taste testing it myself, i found the ketchup to be a fairly okay tomato free substitute. Still savory and zesty, it worked well with foods where regular ketchup would be the desired choice.
