The same Dr. who diagnosed me with celiac disease also TOLD me to avoid
eating starches and protein together.  So now at any big dinner with
relatives, they understand that I eat a nice big yam and extra on the
veggies.  I'm sated and they're not offended.

I avoid the meat personally and one of my relatives who prefers the meat,
eats no potatoes only the "extra" veggies.  We've found that to be a
satisfying solution.

I hope your experiences are are equally so.
