Thank you. I’ve actually been curious about iodine lately; but I’m wondering if the Lugol’s kills the good gut-bugs, too? (I’ve been taking probiotics to counteract the antibiotic that my very conservative doc finally gave me after *six days* of fever - I started getting better within hours, and could’ve *kicked* him! ;-)

From what I have read tonight, it does not kill good bacteria. (It’s on the internet...It must be true!)

Also I read that iodine is something we need and I’ve been using non-iodine salts when I cook for a long while and I think it’s time to switch back to Morton’s.

Not a squash fan but

STUFFED ZUCCHINI

3 zucchini
1/4# sausage
1/2 med onion
1 clove garlic
dab of butter
salt and pepper
1/2 t Italian seasoning
1/2 cup mozzarella or parm
Spaghetti sauce

Boil zucchini for 7 min. Scoop out middle. Brown in butter (wonder if I got this from Paula Dean!!!) the scooped out zucchini, sausage, onion, garlic, salt, pepper and seasonings.
Put mixture in zucchini, Top with cheese and a bit of spaghetti sauce. Bake 350 for 20 min

p.s. Glad you’re feeling better!

AFAIK, it only kills the bad guys. It’s extremely rare to have a reaction to iodine, but it does happen ocasionally. So you should test one drop in some water when you feel fine. If you don’t suddenly spasm and flop like a fish and then swell up and burst, you’re probably okay with it. :-)
