Sorry, no recipes. Here's why:

Patients with chronic renal functional impairment may be advised to avoid oral intake of excessive amounts of oxalate-containing foods such as rhubarb or spinach.

On the other hand, some studies may indicate rhubarb can help slow CKD progression.

Until I know more about it I don't use it.

Thanks Kamama I never would have thought about that aspect.

@kamama94 I never heard anything about rhubarb in conjunction with CKD. Your comments are interesting. I’ve heard of oxalates being a potential problem and asked my nephrologist about it. He assures me that I don’t have a problem with that.
