Thanks! I’m glad you’re enjoying the blog. I couldn’t eat tomatoes for the first few years I was on the low oxalate diet, then I slowly added them back in a little at a time. This amount of tomato does not bother me, but if you’re afraid you could increase the red pepper (or put in a cup of butternut squash) and decrease the tomato juice. If your son isn’t used to a tomato-based chili, he’d probably still like it. Mine do. But for those of us who grew up on tomato-heavy chili, this is about as far as you can decrease the tomato and still feel like you’re eating chili. Good luck! Let me know how it turns out

Hi! Just wanted to stop by, say hi, and say that I LOVE your blog! We’ve been low oxalate for 1.5 years and your recent post about calculating oxalates was very helpful… Even after doing this for a year, I forget that I can’t always guesstimate- especially for my son who is very oxalate sensitive. I love your recipes. I hope to try this one…a little nervous about the tomatoes though.
Thanks for your blog, I LOVE IT! I blog over at http://drewsautismdiary.blogspot.com .
