I was a meat and potato guy (along with bread and corn), so I understand your problem. However, pain motivated me to go strict no-starch, and the results have kept me NSD. Check the recipes and this site, and give it a go.

AS symptoms started 1991. Official dx in 2006 with HLA-B27+, fused SIJ, bone spurs in back, extreme rib/hip pain, and other family with SpA. Started Enbrel in 2006 with good results, but stopped in 2010 due to nerve damage (MS) from it. Getting good results with no-starch diet since 2011.
