Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
Well, we did well for the cookout. I didn't buckle and eat any potatoes, and neither did DH. We enjoyed our meal, and I drank a good bit of Kefir. Haven't had any of the Kombucha though, and the inlaws didn't try it. FIL tried a sip of the kefir but preferred not to drink it. DH complained about his, the kids kept drinking the kefir like it was better that store bought juice, though at the end of the meal asked for soda. (You win some, you lose some.) We watered it down for them.

Is there a good online source for almond flour? What's a reasonable price?
Today I had some Greek yogurt and berries for breakfast, and then we made mini egg cups with spinach, green onion, mushroom, red pepper, and just one peice of bacon split between 12 cups. Yum. :yum I think we'll do tuna lettuce wraps for lunch, and spring "pasta" for dinner: http://paleomg.com/spring-pasta/ I am concerned that we won't get enough veggies in in general, with the increase of meat I'm worried about possible getting clogged up. :shifty any tips? |

I also think I need to do a dessert of some kind tonight... To motivate everyone to stick with it. :giggle any ideas? I have coconut flour but not almond flour. I did just get a lot of fruit, I have some dark chocolate, xylitol, honey. :think I'd love to do those frosting shots, but I don't have canned coconut milk. :think

Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
The other way to stay regular is green smoothies, especially if you add kefir (you can use coconut kefir instead of yogurt kefir if you are dairy-free). That helps keep DD regular and we all love them :yes.

Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
Good advice. :yes
Fondue? Just melt the chocolate, or should I add something? |
Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
What kind of chocolate is it? Unsweetened, semisweet, etc...? We do 85%-90% bars of chocolate over here so I'd just melt that and not add additional flavoring unless asked (I might use some milk in it to thin it so it's not too gloppy). If you're using unsweetened then a little honey might be good. You could try adding cinnamon. If it's below 85% chocolate no added sugar is needed as it's already pretty sweet.

We had bacon and lactofermented lemon gelatin for breakfast. :giggle
Quick and easy desserts. Nourished and Nurtured: Blueberry Banana Muffins (GAPS-legal, grain- and gluten-free) Two Holiday Recipes: Chocolate Peppermint and Coconut Citrus Fudge | OUR NOURISHING ROOTS I am going to write a book someday for the lazy people on GAPS. ;) It helps that C doesn't tolerate eggs and neither of us tolerate nuts so I just don't bake. :giggle We also don't mind eating very simply and find variety way overrated compared to doing other more fun things. |
Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
Amy, we can be your recipe testers :duck <---to avoid the tomatoes cuz we can eat almost everything on full gaps. I am too lazy to write a book/recipes but I have a HUGE binder of recipes I have printed off the internet - I just keep printing and adding to it ;)
Jen, I'd use no sugar baking chocolate with coconut oil and honey for fondue or I'd just dip and let them cool and dry for chocolate covered strawberries/fruit :grin My dessert tonight is going to be cocoa lara bars which Mama Mansa made for us :yum This is straight from MamaMansa who served us a meal saturday that I didn't have to bring a thing :happytears Quote:

Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
I'm a big fan of Dr Fuhrman's "nutritarian" way of eating. Basically it's 90% produce, mushrooms, beans and nuts. Ideally only 1 serving of grains/day. Only about 14 oz of animal products a week. I thrive on the diet. My family is still struggling with it (well dh and ds anyway, dd will eat anything). I make steel-cut oats (soaked overnight) with lots of fruit, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, blackstrap mollases, pb, and raisins for breakfast most days. Lunch is usually leftovers, smoothies, beans, or salad (or any combination). Dinner I usually make a salad, big veggie stir "fry" or casserole and some sort of (usually organic) meat for dh. I'm struggling with not obsessing over food since figuring out the decade of pain in my back was actually my gallbladder or liver being irritated from processed food and meat. I'm also an emotional eater who loves dessert and comfort foods so I'm trying to just focus on eating lots of high nutrient food and not really stress about it. My go to for dessert/chocolate craving is chopped apples sprinkled with cocoa powder (with dates and pb sometimes too). It's really hard when dh is so attached to his SAD food and I know from experience that eating that food will eventually cause pain and disease :sigh .
I've also started making kombucha :rockon |
Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
Almond flour can be pretty hit and miss at TJ's. I'm getting in the habit of keeping an extra bag or two around for when they don't have any (which is usually whenever I need it ;) ).
How about this for a dessert? Coconut Frosting Shots. Saw it on someone Pinterest and am thinking I need to try it. :yum |
Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
:yes those are the ones I was talking about, but I don't have canned coconut milk. :pout I have made "whipped cream" out of coconut milk and it yummmmmy. I can imagine this would be, too!

Re: D. R. P. T. ! (dietary revamp processing thread ;) )
What does SAD stand for?
subbing...we're cutting out sugar and gluten (well, DH is going "low-gluten" :giggle). I have chronic (11 years) headaches and after being on gcm I think gluten/sugar is the reason. It's been a week and I don't feel any different but I'm not expecting overnight changes! What does paleo/primal mean, exactly? And someone mentioned not eating potatoes...how are potatoes not primal?? |
