Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Although you can't use butter if you are GF/CF, I have heard that proper Indian ghee, or clarified butter, is casein free. NOT french clarified butter, as they stop short of the stage where all the casein is gone, but Indian, which is of a dark colour, has a rich nutty flavour and keeps indefinitely at room temperature. BTW I have not tested this out, so it is only theoretical as far as my personal experience is concerned. As to margarine, I avoid soya lecithin, but now I can't remember why!!!! Maybe someone else can explain why that might be dodgy? I know that soya can bother AS kids as much as gluten, but can't remember if this is the reason.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Ghee is recommended as casein-free in Gut and Psychology Syndrome which suggests (nay demands) the SCD diet so I assumed that ghee was ok for SCD. Dr -McBride is usually very anti-processed foods which are GF/CF and wants natural alternatives. Her diet is very demanding but quite a few people do it.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Nikki, Have you ever tried making sandwiches from waffles? I do that for my kids. Peanut butter and apple slices inside a couple waffles (which are easy to do GFCF and taste way better than the bread). I also find the kids love stuff to dip, like corn chips and salsa, or vegetables and dip. Easy to do GFCF also. My daughter loves to take protein shakes for lunch. I'm not especially keen on them (I'm just not really keen on protein powder), but I let her do it once a week. Orange juice, protein powder, and a bit of ice cream (but you could replace that with something GFCF ice cream) and she's a happy girl. I also believe that it's not too hard to acquire GFCF tortilla wraps. They taste much better than the bread and wraps are a lot more appealing to my kids than sandwiches. If your boy can eat nuts, there are many great nut recipes for pecans, almonds, etc that make them very appetizing to kids. I can give you a couple I've used if you're interested.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 On this subject of what to cook with there is a great cook book and website to look at called ‘Nourishing Traditions’ by Sally Fallon which uses traditional methods of cooking.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hi Nikki, Here are three that have worked for me. Keep in mind that I rarely measure but these are the measurements originally stated in the recipes. Sugary Pecans 2 egg whites 1 cup of sugar (I used organic, and less than 1 cup) 1 tsp of cinnamon 8 cups of pecans Beat egg whites until fluffy. Add in sugar and cinnamon slowly while beating. Stir in pecans gently. Bake at 325 F for about 30 minutes, breaking them up every 10 minutes. Let them cool and break them up every so often. There is also a recipe like this that I've not tried: 3 egg whites, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1 tbsp vanilla. Follow the same directions except bake at less than 150 degress for several hours. This is a WAPF recipe and they're not keen on high temperatures or sugar, for that matter :-) Honey peanuts 2 tbsp raw honey 2 tbsp butter 6 cups of peanuts Bake at 325 for about 30 minutes, breaking them up every 10 minutes or so. Spicy nuts 3 tbsp olive oil 2 tsps curry powder 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp cayenne 1/2 tsp salt 6 cups brazil nuts and almonds Stir spices into oil. Pour over nuts and stir well. Bake at 325 F for 10 minutes This one the kids didn't like, but DH loved. Kids may like it if they adore spicy or if you toned it down a bit . Brazil nuts are a great source of selenium. Chocolate nuts 1 part chocolate 2 parts nuts (almonds or peanuts work best) Melt one part chocolate slowly. Stir in two parts nuts. Drop clusters onto wax paper and then place immediately in freezer. Store in fridge once hardened. These aren't good for yeast, but very good for the soul. They do get messy and probably wouldn't be a good choice for lunches, but are a nice dessert for home. I always soak the nuts, as the people at WAPF suggest. It really makes sense to me nutritionally and is easy to do. I buy them in bulk, raw, and prepare them as I need them. For all the nuts mentioned above, simply covered them in filtered water, stir in 2 tsps of sea salt and place in a warm place overnight. Drain them, and then dry them on a baking pan in an oven set at less than 150 for about 12 to 24 hours. When I next make these recipes, I'm going to turn down the oven as suggested by WAPF. I hope these help. Anita > > thanks anita id love the recipies as my son can have nuts love nikki > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
