Elimination Diet Day One

So, day one went quite well! Lunch and dinner are pretty easy to deal with. Breakfast is seeming a little more limited. I'm really wishing I owned a Vitamix or some sort of super fancy juicer for this. That would make breakfast easier. Fresh juice/smoothies would be fine with me for breakfast everyday! But it's not that long until I'll be slowly adding stuff back in so even having to repeat the same breakfasts over and over won't be so bad.



This was breakfast today- brown rice porridge with diced pears, cinnamon, and wee bit of honey. I put raw brown rice through the food processor, a very loud process! Grind it until it's about half flour and half little pieces then cook with water until done. I think this would be really easy to make in the crockpot overnight, then in the morning, just top with whatever fruit you want. Easy and tasty!



I almost didn't bother taking a picture of lunch because it was just a salad with shredded carrot, diced apple, and raw sunflower seeds, but in the end, it was so pretty in the bowl I just had to!



I had plans for dinner. Really good plans for dinner. And then late in the afternoon, after a lot of time spent playing music and singing in the living room I realized I hadn't gotten anything ready for dinner. The best laid plans and all that. So what to do? Improvise. I took what I had and threw it all together to make Lentils with caramelized onions, sweet potato, and kale. Served over rice this was really good and really filling. B ate two heaping bowls of it!

So far so good!
