first day gluten free


So far, so good.  Breakfast was eggs, bacon, and a pear.  For snack, we had to get creative.  As you can see, we figured out what to do with an avocado.  It is amazing how readily kids will try food they have helped make.  This was yummy!  First we tried the dip with carrots but of course corn chips tasted even better.

Josiah's Avocado Dip
one avocado, mashed with fork
one clove of garlic, chopped or diced
1 T. lemon juice
black pepper to taste 

Serve with vegetables or (sigh!) corn chips.

We saw an episode of extreme home make over that mentioned eating gluten free. They even had a chef make some gluten free recipes for the family!

Could you send that chef right over?

More seriously, it helps a lot we've done this before, just haven't tried it with Josiah. I do want to keep him lower carb and that means more "natural" snacks.

I love your energizer bunny. That is so YOU! :)
