I recently found out I cannot eat garlic or onion. I can SOMETIMES get by with a tiny, tiny sprinkle of the powder, but then I cannot even taste it. Can anyone suggest a substitute for, say, a savory chicken dinner, or a spaghetti dinner that does not have onion or garlic? I have to make my own sauce from scratch and it is kind of flat without onion/garlic even though I use Italian herb seasoning. I am just at a loss. Once a week, I enjoy a 6" Subway Sandwich. I eat the Ham (do not like turkey and get tired of chicken). I used to get it with lettuce, tomato, and just 2 tiny, tiny sprigs of their raw, red onion and had to stop because even that tiny amount just rips my stomach for an entire 24 hours. I thought about experimenting with shaving a bit of raw ginger to give it an onion "bite". Any creative chefs out there who may have a suggestion?
