Breakfast scramble- grated sweet potato, Kerrygold cheese, spinach and eggs
Low carb GF pancakes. The recipe called for stevia, but I used a couple teaspoons of coconut sugar instead, since I personally am more concerned with eating whole foods than strictly low carb.

Beef Broccoli at P.F. Chang's. Mmm! Last Friday night and Saturday I got to go out with my sister and two aunt that are our age for a Girl's Trip. Fun because we haven't doesn't it in two years, but sad because it was also a goodbye trip for my sister who is moving out of state soon. 😪😘
Also from our girl's weekend trip, a beef enchilada from Las Brisas.
Family dinner of split pea soup, rotisserie chicken, garden fresh sauteed green beans with bacon and garlic, more fresh veggies and toast.

Sophie and Nathaniel we're very well behaved and waited patiently for 40 min while I had an appointment to check my supplements, so I took them to Rocket Donuts for a treat🍩 I love their GF chocolate frosted donuts. (Usually I get the one with no sprinkles, but they were out if those 😏)

 And since life and diet are about balance, sometimes I just have cauliflower puree for a meal.
Fish cakes (my recipe), sauteed cabbage, carrot and onion, HM dressing, and fresh corn on the cob.
Fried eggs, spinach and bacon
I've mostly been eating lettuce roll-ups lately, but I did have this sandwich with ham, avo mayo, cheese, avocado and spinach. 😍
Kids in bed, vanilla ice cream with a tsp. of peanut butter and chocolate sauce, and a stack of cookbooks from the library....sounds like a great evening!
Omelette with cheese and greens, oatmeal with tasty toppings, a fruit platter and kombucha. I had omelette and kombucha, the kids had some of everything. And they were still hungry an hour later... Lol
Easy, delicious dinner of roasted potatoes (mixed baby and sweet)kale and bacon. Crowd pleaser😍
My lunch- butter lettuce with HM dressing leftover fish cake, and broiled asparagus. This was so good.
Not very photogenic, but super yummy: BBQ chicken with sour cream and cheese (which the rest of the family ate on buns as a sandwich) and a side of good ol' cauli puree.

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 ...
