Re: Need ground meat ideas

[Guest guest]

Have you tried the chicken cupcake recipe? I made it for my daughter,

substituting pureed pears for the squash, and she eats them up. I made them

smaller, like cookies, instead of muffins. She actually prefers them straight

out of the freezer, then they have more firmness to them - go figure, kids are

weird.

Need ground meat ideas

My son only started eating meat just before starting SCD (he's 5),

but is not very keen on it. We are only eating turkey and lamb.

He's ok with lamb pancakes (egg and lamb blended), but I need some

more ideas for the ground turkey. I've been making turkey burgers

(which I think are delicious) (ground turkey, egg, pureed carrot,

some nut flour, salt), and turkey balls (similar), but they are

too " meaty " for him. He will eat them if he has to, but if anyone

has any suggestions on something that would work with ground turkey,

please let me know (we've tried cooked turkey in pancakes but the

turkey is too chewy and I'd like something I can cook straight from

the raw turkey).

We are currently eating: turkey, lamb, fish, eggs, pecan/walnut

flour, carrots, green beans, zucchini.

Thanks for any ideas,

Ann

Hi, I made a " turkey meatloaf " the other night. Simmer about 8 oz of tomato

juice with some seasonings you like and make a sauce. Then mix up 16 oz of

ground turkey, an egg, zucchini that has been cooked, and half of the sauce.

Shape into a loaf pan and cook at 350 for 45 minutes. Then add the other

half of the sauce on top and cook an additional 15 minutes. Hope he likes

it.

I am wondering about the salicylates since it is now seeming to be a big

issue with us.................I noticed that honey is on the very high list.

What do you all do for a sweetener if your child cannot tolerate honey?

Thanks,

We're not eating bananas (or any fruit yet - tried pears too soon -

won't be doing that again for a while). Two things I forgot to

mention are that we are easting small amounts of honey and pretty

much unlimited cheese.

We aren't eating tomatoes yet either, so the meatloaf is out. Thanks

anyway.

Kathy,

We are using saccharin for now. Elaine has discussed studies on this

on her website. Also, Crook discusses it in the Yeast

Connection handbook and comes to a similar conclusion and uses it

himself. I personally feel it is ok.

Just an update - we ended up trying the stuffed zucchini from BTVC.

I loved it (I actually had it for dinner last night, then leftovers

for breakfast and lunch!), but again, Sammy had a hard time with

it. He liked the idea that it had cheese in it, but he couldn't

taste that as much as the turkey. Anyway, I plan to work

the " stuffing " from that recipe into a burger to see if he will be

more willing to eat that than my former burgers.

Thanks for your suggestions,

Ann
