5th recipes

If you have pancreatitis, you need to rethink your diet. For cooking, you can use a certain number of products, and the dishes should not be fatty, not very salty, not fried, not sweet. Even so, you can live a full life with this disease. Consider several recipes for cooking.

1. Steamed cutlets. For cooking we need chicken breast (approx. 200 g), wheat bread (30 g), milk (3 tablespoons), a small amount of oil (preferably olive oil), a pinch of salt. All components must be mixed. Form schnitzel from minced meat. Put them in a water bath, pour water and close the lid. Cook until cooked.
2. rose hip drink. To make this broth, you need to consume 0. 5 kg of fruit and 4 liters of water. We wash the rose hip and fill it with water. Let it steep for four days. You don't have to boil the drink, the rose hip should be infused at room temperature. This drink is high in vitamin C. Due to the fact that the drink is very acidic, it is advisable to consult your doctor before drinking it.
3. Vegetable soup. To prepare the soup you will need pepper (1 piece), broccoli, a small zucchini and cauliflower. The vegetables must be washed and cut into cubes. Pour vegetables with water (1. 5 liters) and cook until completely cooked. The water is drained (but not all). Using a mixer, transfer the soup to a puree state.
4. Fish soup. For cooking we need to take 0. 5 kg of low-fat fish (you can use cod, pikeperch or pike), pour water and set it on fire. It must be cooked until completely cooked. After that, the fish must be separated from the bones and chopped in a blender. Add a little butter to the warmed milk and wait for it to melt completely. After that, the broth is brought to a boil. It is important that the broth does not boil. Put fish in it and cook for a few more minutes. Our soup is ready.
