Meal Plan Monday: My adventure in feeding my family and providing my husband a Gluten, Dairy, Nightshade veggie, and red meat free diet. My husband Jeff has auto immune The reason because of his severe psoriasis. He has been doing this very limited and avoiding diet since January, there has been improvement. It does pose some challenges as a family, while I try to cook for everyone at once it doesn’t always work. I am always on the search for creative ways to make the same food different.
Mostly I get tired of the physical dishes/pots (I hate washing them) and I miss going out for real pizza. It is probably better Pizza Hut and I are no longer friends. I would like a break from time to time. Is it bad I get excited when is working late? Because I love an unplanned pizza night. The other real issue is eating at others homes. I try to bring something for him when we visit other, people tend to think well what can he eat?? More but less than you think.. removing the Nightshades is the hardest for flavor.. because cause tomatoes, pepers and white potatoes are out.
I really miss the red meat.. which he says is his biggest issues as well. I could buy it and cook it for the kids and I but, then I feel guilty eating it in front of him. I was doing his diet it would be the cheese, yea soy based cheese it kinda sucks.
What does he eat a lot of :
- Mushrooms
- Onions
- Green veggies (not in pepper family
- Cauliflower try my roasted cauliflower recipe simple
- sweet potatoes
- turnips, beets,
- fruit
- gluten free pasta
- quinoa
- polenta
- rice
- chicken
- fish/seafood

Linking up to Organizing Junkies Meal Plan Monday :
I love roasted baby potatoes. Summer brings out the grill and food tastes fresh and flavorful. Potatoes they are so simple and great for the grill. This recipes go great with all your dinner this summer. Have the kids get involved the little are fun to count and toss in a bowl.
