Before I went on TED this was a standard dinner at our house. I thought I’d try it again but with the necessary substitutions. This is the recipe: http://www.kevinandamanda.com/spicy-sausage-pasta/.  I substitute rice milk for the heavy cream and just eliminate the cheese altogether. It’s still pretty tasty, but definitely not as good as the original.  The… Continue reading Spicy Sausage Pasta – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

My husbands family has a tradition to eat orange rolls on Christmas morning.  When I met him he was astounded that I didn’t know what orange rolls were.  Cinnamon rolls, sure I get that.  Orange rolls…I wasn’t convinced.  Allow me to be the first to assure you that they really should have been a part… Continue reading Orange Rolls – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

Sloppy joes are easy, delicious, and hearty meal choice! Best part is that leftovers are easy to freeze for future consumption. This is the recipe I “follow”: https://www.sidetrackedsarah.com/2012/07/simple-slow-cooker-sloppy-joes/. I substitute yellow mustard for the soy sauce and I do it all on the stovetop (simmer it on low for 20 minutes) instead of transferring it to… Continue reading Sloppy Joes – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

Chicken Pot Pie is comfort food at its finest.  I’ve never met a chicken pot pie I didn’t like. I also love casseroles.  They’re easy and there’s usually minimal clean up.  So this recipe is the best of both worlds. I follow this recipe and just don’t do the biscuit topping because it has dairy… Continue reading Chicken Pot Pie Casserole – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

This weeks reintroduction: Soy.  I got soy yogurt for Baby O to try.  It did not go well.  At first I thought Baby O was having a HORRIBLE reaction to the soy. Then a few days went by and things just got so much worse.  He went on a 39 hour nursing strike which sent… Continue reading Week 23 – Total Elimination Diet

Who doesn’t like pizza? If you say you don’t you’re either lying or you’re wrong. The great thing about pizza is that you can customize it to accommodate what you’ve reintroduced and what you like. This is the recipe I use for the dough: http://www.unclejerryskitchen.com/recipes/5-minute-pizza-dough-recipe-no-rise-no-knead-dough/. It’s also super delicious if you add 1/2-1 tsp of Italian seasoning… Continue reading Pizza – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

This weeks reintroduction: Legumes (beans).  Baby O does NOT like beans.  I’ve tried to get him to eat them during week 20 and this week (week 22) to no avail.  So finally, I just decided to eat them myself. I ate hummus and baby O didn’t seem to have any problems. YAY!!! MONDAY Breakfast –… Continue reading Week 22 – Total Elimination Diet

I’m trying to find a cake/cupcake recipe for Baby O’s first birthday.  I found these recipes and they worked well. I ended up using the same recipes to make the smash cake too. I followed this recipe for the cupcakes: https://www.momontimeout.com/very-vanilla-cake/ I used Earth Balance Soy Free Buttery Spread, this store bought gluten free flour… Continue reading Cupcakes and Frosting – Total Elimination Diet – Reintroduction Phase

This weeks reintroduction: Nothing.  It’s wedding prep week.  I can’t afford for Baby O to react to something and be inconsolable all week.  We’ll pick up the reintroductions again next week. MONDAY Breakfast – Banana Coffee Cake Lunch – Hot Dogs Dinner – Grilled Chicken and corn TUESDAY Breakfast – Strawberry Toast Lunch – Cupcakes… Continue reading Week 21 – Total Elimination Diet
