WhatIEat#10

 Sauteed zucchini, Yukon gold potatoes with butter, and fried/grilled trout, caught by Brian and Sophie. Simple and delicious. 

The allowed foods for this week's NAET avoidance phase were fisn 'n chips and cauliflower. The end. Because like every food has B vitamins in it, because there are so many types and they are so important. Thankfully, Trader Joes has some good GF fish in their freezer section, so I managed. But it was not as enjoyable as it might sound, and I have definitely had my fill of fish 'n chips for awhile. :)



Eggs, wonderful eggs! So good on salads, especially with honey mustard dressing and Spam. Oh, yes, I said Spam. I haven't had any for, like, three years, and then last week I was shopping and I saw it and I was like "Yes. I need that." Lol
More salad with boiled eggs, (actually steamed. hard boiled eggs), HM dressing, and bacon bits. And a side of my creamy, garlicky, turkey/rice/veggie casserole-risotto....I'm not very at naming my cooking creations I guess. Haha!
Quick, Sunday morning breakfast-Eggs again, and more Spam, and two leftover GF pancakes with molasses, a.k.a. my new sweet obsession. For real. I love it. After reading about its health benefits, I decided to try it and slowly worked up to my current obsession with the deep, dark, rich taste. Yes, it is still sugar, but it is a good souce of vitamins and minerals like calcium and magnesium and many others. Which just lets me enjoy my pancakes even more.



I tried the Pad Thai place in the mall, and I was so happy to be able to eat this garlic chicken, since it was gluten free which never happens with yummy fried stuff. Yay! It was so good, and ever since I ate it I've been trying to figure out how to get Brian to town with me so he can try it too. (and so I can eat more of it!)

My Fish Cakes Recipe -(Paleo)-

I am trying to incorporate more fish into my diet, and these delicious fish cakes are a new family favorite! They can be made with tuna or salmon, salmon having slightly more to offer nutritionally; high Omega 3 fats, vitamin D, and selenium. (and more!) Fish is so good for your brain and heart, and can improve your mood, weight, and overall health. Interestingly, the selenium in fish helps keep our bodies from absorbing the mercury found in fish! God's good design :) This article  explains that in more detail, if you're a "nerd" like me and love learning about food. Anyway, on to the recipe! Ingredients- 3 cans salmon, tuna or sardines 3 TBS mayonnaise 3 TBS coconut flour 3 eggs 3 tsp mustard 1/4 tsp salt pepper 1/4 cup chopped green onions (1) Open canned fish and empty into med/large bowl. The fish I use has no added water, so I pour all the juices in too, no draining! Try to keep the fish somewhat off to side. Add the coconut flour to the j...

Oatmeal cake, a classic recipe my mom would make when I was growing up. I have adapted it to suit my family's diet; it is gluten free, lower sugar, and I use pecans on top instead of cornflakes. It is so comforting and cozy to eat; the spices are warming and fragrant, and the texture is soft and moist. It is one of my favorite treats, and I'm so thankful to be able to enjoy it again with my family! A nice bowl of oatmeal, with molasses, chia seeds, cinnamon, cashew butter, butter, coconut oil, hemp hearts and soaked/sprouted pecans. I wasn't able to eat oatmeal for years, due to the pain and bloating it caused. But I'm thrilled to say that I have eaten it many times now with zero digestive issues. It's crazy and wonderful and my brain is still getting used to the idea of it being safe and normal, but every time I eat it, my brain gets a little more comfortable with it. I'm not scared, but I can hear my brain saying, "wait...I thought this w...

This Is Going Well // DNRS review

{This is going W E L L}  Brian gave me this mug for Christmas, and it's my favorite.❤  All the work I've been doing to retrain my brain and heal my body has been going very well, and I am so excited and optimistic about the future!  I mentioned previously that I would be starting the Dynamic Neural Retraining System, (DNRS), which works with neuroplasticity based techniques to heal an impaired limbic system, which is essentially a brain injury that results from trauma and causes your brain to process and store information as if you are in a constant state of "fight or flight", or emergency response.  Trauma is relative to every individual, and there are different types of trauma; obvious things like death, war, victim of a crime, major accidents, and those sort of things are Traumas with a capital 'T'. Things like illness, chronic stress, unstable family life, negative relationships, and many others, are  traumas with a little 't'; on ...
