Penny -

You have to cook the carrot chips a long time. Longer than I ever thought

you would. Do you wait until they have turned brown? I think it takes me an

hour to cook 2 batches of carrot chips. They also get more crunchy as they

cool. They are tricky though. Sometimes mine don't come out crunchy either.

Penny,

How about a granola? I chopped pecans and add coconut, honey, a little oil

and cinnamon to it. Cook it on 350 till browned. Watch out when it starts

to brown it goes fast. It crunchy and sweet. ~Sheri mom to 8 yrs. and

I made the gingerbread cookies and they came out good. I rolled them very

thin then baked at 325 about 10 min. then I put them in a warm oven , the lowest

mine went was 140 dgrees for about 2 hours.they were soft when I took them out

but crisped up when they cooled. I put jelly on top for my son.

Penny -

I just fill a pan with a couple of inches of canola or safflower oil and let

it heat while I peel the carrots and then cut them in my food processor with

the thinnest blade I have. I throw one carrot chip in the oil to see if it is

hot enough. If it doesn't immediately start bubbling when I throw in the

chip, I wait a few more minutes and try again. I think it may also be important

not to put too many chips in at a time. I seem to have better luck if my

carrot chips have just been peeled and cut right before I'm going to use them,

are

at room temperature and if I don't put too many in the pan.

Then, I just watch them and occasionally stir. When they start to kind of

clump together as I stir, I would guess it usually takes about 10 more minutes

until they are done. Once they start to brown, I scoop out a few and put them

on a towel and let them cool. If they are crunchy when they are cool, I pull

the rest out. You have to be careful though because they go from being done

to getting burned very quickly.

I have to say, even with all this, mine are usually crunchy but not always

the way that I want them.

Hope this helps and good luck!

Penny,

This question is going to sound mean, but it is not intended to be...

What happens if you force him to eat something?

It seems to me that a kid can't actually hate that many foods.

But he THINKS he does, so he won't even give them a chance.

We've all done this... see a new (foreign) dish and think " oooh,

yuck " , without even giving it a chance.

What happens if you make him eat it?

I don't buy into bribing children to eat because I think it sets you

up for a continued power struggle.

How is his receptive language?

Do you still have illegal foods in the house that he is " holding out "

for? (and yes, I realize that he has been on the diet for a long time

to still be holding out)

What did he eat before SCD?

Jody:

You have never seen a kid be able to clinched his mouth and jaw shut as much as

Kenzie when I've tried to get him to try something. When I've done it in the

past it's been a no win situation. We both get angry and it creates a terrible

food environment.

I have illegal foods for the girls locked in a cabinet out in our store that

Kenzie doesn't even know exists. We have a store attached to our house. They

have to sneak it into their rooms.

Before SCD I had him on GFCF strict from the time he was 2.5-4.5. No big

changes. I discovered digestive enzymes and got a little more adventurous.

Eventually I was letting him have pretty much what he wanted (no casein) as long

as he had enzymes. He loved corn chips and french fries. He would have lived

on those if I had let him. He also ate chicken, steak, spaghetti, pizza,

burgers only with a bun though, crackers, pop tarts, etc. Never ate any fruit

or vegetables.

Thanks for trying to help me on this.

Penny,

I too have an extremely picky eater. UGH! But she has discovered

that she loves the fried pork skins/rinds. They are extremely

crunchy. I have seen that many people also use those to make chicken

nuggets., etc. Hope that helps.

Also, does he lie cookies? I make Hannah cookies, but i hide chicken

breast in them (processed really fine in the food processor), I hide

all kinds of things in almond/pecan flour breads and cookies. I don't

know if this helps, but good luck!

he won't eat them. I've tried muffins, spaghetti sauce, pancakes,

cookies and he's not interested. For those of you who have EXTREMELY

picky eaters can you suggest a couple of good recipes I might try.

Preferably something with a crunchy texture to it.

Just check the bacon in your grocery store.

has a low salt, no sugar bacon.

Hi - I can completly relate - my son Sam has many picky eating issues. But I

wanted to let you know you should certainly be able to get the carrot chips

crispy. That is one of the few things Sam will eat. Actually now they do not

have to be crispy for him to eat them - he now eats them just baked in a little

olive oil and they are still orange and carrot consistency. So hang in there -

Sam is (or was) always a crunchy kid as well - the crunchy chips really helped

us and have led to this new tolerance of less crunchy foods. Also I take

zucchini and squash and coat them in olive oil and egg and bake them and they

come out a little crispy. This way you are also getting egg into him. Sam

hates all meat, so I am happy to get egg into him. We also exchange a bite of

hamburger for a few carrots or squash fries - but he is slick and takes very

very little bites, but we are working on it. But try the fries - they may work

with the egg and oil.

Please email me privately if you would like - like I said I am in the same boat

as you.

Good luck,

Sam 4yo ASD, SCD 6 weeks

Have you tried the chicken pancakes?

What about the chicken cupcakes?

These two recipes might help you get some meat into your little guy.

Thanks Jody - we do cupcakes with chicken or beef in them - but it still does

not seem enough. I am getting him to bite hamburger, but he takes tiny tiny

bites. I am hoping he gets over his sensory issues with meat over time.

Meanwhile we will stick to sneaking it into the muffins - he really didnt like

the pancakes. Ugh!!

I have not been able to find the no sugar bacon - I wonder if he would eat it?

Take care,

[Guest guest]

What was the brand of the bacon? I haven't been able to find any no

sugar bacon.
