Planning and preparing nutritious (and tasty) meals to cater to your needs when you suffer from ulcerative colitis can seem like an insurmountable challenge. Of course, there are myriads of options available, especially since you will be determining what goes inside your mouth. If you have children or a spouse for whom to cook, then the challenge may seem to aggrandize. These recipes are not only easy to follow, but are healthy and are great choices for those with compromised digestive systems.

Turkey Patties

This is a great recipe for the whole family. Everyone will want to have a bite. Also, the turkey has less fat and is easier on the stomach than ground beef.

Ingredients
1 lb. lean ground turkey
1 tbs. coconut oil
1 tbs. dried onion flakes
1 tsp. dried garlic
1 tsp. oregano
1 tbs. freshly chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1 medium sized onion
several cloves fresh garlic

Place the ground turkey in a mixing bowl and mix in the coconut oil, onion flakes, powdered garlic, oregano, and sea salt. Mix the ingredients thoroughly and divide into six or seven balls around the same size. Flatten the balls slightly and place on a tray. Then refrigerate until ready for use. Peel the onion and slice into 1/4 inch round sections. Place the onions slices on a plate and brush both sides with the remaining coconut oil. Place the onion slices on a pan and sauté. Place the turkey burgers on the pan and cook for approximately 4 minutes per side or until they are cooked all the way through.

Delicious Healing Broth

This broth is not only easy to digest, but also contains collagen and gelatin (from the bones), as well easily absorbable vitamins and nutrients. Soups practically soak up all the good things you'd want from the vegetables. This is a good choice on days when nothing seems to go well with your stomach.

Ingredients

1 pack beef bones or whole chicken legs with bones included (approx. 4 or 5 cut up pieces)
Any vegetables/herbs you like such as garlic, onions, oregano, carrots, celery, potatoes, sage, basil
1/4 cup vinegar (preferably apple cider vinegar)
10 cups water
sea salt
1 tbs coconut oil
