Still plodding on ...

We are still grain free at home with the exceptional meal with rice. I have tried various meals, various grain free breads .... most of them bombed because I use fresh coconut flour which is too moist.

L told me yesterday that he was having pain and pointed to his gum on the top jaw and his TMJ area. His gums feel and look good so I am not sure if he is really having pain or if he was trying to get a reaction as he did not say it again and was his usual self ....

We remain vigilant for any issues though .. gulp ...

I tried sweet potato and fresh coconut bread yesterday.

whipped egg whites

 Folded in the sweet potato and egg yolks

This loaf had extra baking soda and it bombed ...

But, the other half in which I actually followed the recipe - more or less, came very nice:

Here is what the slices look like ... If toasted, they are strong enough to left up and hold cheese, but for the beef patty, we wrap them in foil to give the structural to hold up.

The beef cakes with liver

I made egg and pumpkin wraps - not so popular with him ...

They tasted good though

I also give him a mix of ghee+fresh coconut+raw local honey. Ghee contains Vitamin K which helps in case of Vitamin D poisoning, coconut has fiber and the raw honey helps with allergies, and the boy loves it ..
Fresh coconut. I buy coconuts from BJs, scrape all 3 at the same time and freeze all the meal in boxes to be used later.

Homemade ghee from org, grassfed butter

Raw local honey

I added a little cocoa powder in this batch. Usually I add cardamom, but I wanted to switch things up a little and Are asked for cocoa. I gave in, even though cocoa has phytic acid, but he gets a teaspoon of this daily, so it is not too bad

Squash waffles - eggs +baked squash puree + coconut flour + vanilla = waffles Weston Price could have eaten

Squash puree

Eggs + squash + coconut flour

Ta da!! Waffles ... he loves these! They freeze very well.

Demise of yet another bone broth jar

Bottom cracked open

I actually saved some of this broth. I took out the broth popsicle, washed it to remove any possible glass shards but melting the outside layers of the broth

Komboucha

Cloud buns or whatever -  these came out really, really, really well .... looks and feels *just* like bread ... however, not much fiber - but awesome for a treat ..
Whip egg whites into stiff peaks

Mix yolks and cream cheese

Fold in

Gently scoop into prepared pan without losing the air beaten into the whites. Very sticky so need  parchment paper.

These were GREAT!! Freeze very well too ...
