WhatIEat#33(low lectin)

 
We went on a family camping trip the last week of June.  We stayed near the ocean and we had a wonderful time. Alot of these meals are from that trip. I really enjoy campfire cooking. I already use my cast iron pans at home and love them, and they are great for cooking over am open flame too. I especially love cooking breakfasts like the one above: sweet potatoes, eggs, spinac and bacon. Yum!
I did my best to stick to my low lectin diet. I did eat a few treats but for meals I tried to eat alot of veggies to help balance it out. Butter lettuce with HM dressing, roasted carrots, broccoli, grilled onion, green onion, and a little chicken on this plate.
I like making one big, thick pancake in my Dutch oven and then slicing like a pie- saves me time and effort. This pancake was GF, of course, and made from a combination of a Paleo pancake mix and oat flour, so not grain free which means not compliant. But I skipped the syrup and ate boiled eggs, ham and avocado along with it.
 
This was a lunch I made to eat at the ocean. For my family I made a tray of snadwiches with GF bread, HM dressing, ham, cheese, and spread avo. mayo on the outside and then stuck in the BBQ to get toasty and crispy. I put some lettuce on them once them right before serving. My sandwich was made using Paleo naan, HM dressing, ham, goat gouda, and avo.mayo. after it had heated up I wrapped it in lettuce.  (The ham was not pastured meat=not compliant)
 
This dinner was so good. I brought homegrown grass fed steaks and grilled them along with asparagus and onions. Grilled onions are so good...they really satisfy a craving for onion rings in a healthy way.
Breakfast bowl: fried white sweet potatoes, Spam(not compliant), spinach and scrambled eggs. 💛
Thai food lunch! We took the kids to a huge playground and picked up Thai and pizza on the way. I had chicken and onions and broccoli in a sauce that was GF but probably not compliant.
Breakfast of spinach, grilled sweet potato, bacon, avocado, and boiled eggs.
Home at last!  The family had nachos and I had naan with cilantro, onions, chicken, goat gouda and lettuce. Oh and we picked up Rocket Donuts on the way home for dessert. GF but not compliant. Totally delicious.
Omelet with duck eggs, Comtè cheese, spinach, onions.
Naan, grilled sw.potato fries, broccoli and tuna with avo mayo.
Chocolate mug cake with coconut ice cream. The chocolate chips are not compliant, but the cake and ice cream are.
Huge salad made with garden fresh lettuce from our garden boxes and tuna with avo mayo and mustard.
More of that homegrown beef and caramelized onions and broccoli.
Scramble breakfast: eggs, ground turkey, spinach and a jar of tea
Compliant vanilla cinnamon mug cake with ice cream. This is the compliant brand/type- So Delicious vanilla coconut milk ice cream, no sugar added.
Bowl of broccoli and a couple slices of smoked aalmon from Trader Joe's. I often eat a big bowl of broccoli for lunch. It's easy, filling, so nitrous and I love it.
My birthday breakfast,  which I enjoyed out on our new patio set with Sophie and Nathaniel. A slicw of chocolate mug cake, scrambled eggs and avocado.


When I make my family burgers for dinner I want one too! I make my burgers with naan as buns and add grilled onions, avo mayo, lettuce goat cheese and salt and pepper.
Turkey breakfast sausages with spinach and eggs. (Turkey not pastured=Not compliant)

More turkey sausages. Make a big batch so they're ready and waiting for you.
Butter lettuce, HM dressing and smoked salmon.


Coconut flour Paleo waffles with French butter, wgga and avocado.
Cereal I can eat!! Puffed millet with a drizzle of raw honey and goat milk. It's a treat but it is nice to be able to have cereal once in awhile.

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 ...
