 Dinner- Asparagus, sweet potato fries, and turkey patty with honey mustard dressing.
 Breakfast- sauteed kale with bacon bits, scrambled eggs, and a GF butter cookie & raspberry leaf tea. The cookie is based on my Oma's recipe, which I grew up making whenever I went to her house, and a classic she is known for today. I made it gluten free by subbing in a mix of Bob's GF Flour blend, oat flour and a tiny bit of millet flour, and they taste yummy! Last time I tried to modify these cookies, I used the Namaste GF Flour blend from Costco, but they had a  funny after taste. I also cut the cookies thicker than my Oma does, since I like them to be slightly chewy. Yum!

 Dinner- Pot Roast, baked/roasted sweet potato, and green beans. And a nice handful of supplements....
Breakfast- green beans and leftover roast and turkey, and tiny bit of Paleo mayo all warmed in a skillet (my kids loves it too!) Some Darigold White Sharp Cheddar cheese and a spoonful of cashew butter.

Sunday night dinner- made this quick soup to help calm and nourish our tummies after a day with too many treats. Onion, garlic, turkey patty, celery, zucchini, rice and spinach.
Dinner- mixed veggies, baked sweet potato, and turkey sauteed with bacon and a bit of mayo added in. I like putting mayonnaise into leftover turkey because it tastes like a turkey sandwich, but without the bread!

Chicken veggie stirfry, with rice noodles. I made some Pad Thai sauce to go with it, for those of us who like it. Yummy!

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 ...
