Hi I have contacted you before about my sons allergies and if it is of any help with the dairy issue, we have found in the last month and half we use coconut oil and coconut flour for some meals so we have an option for backing. I use coconut oil just like butter because it takes on the flavor of the product you make for example when I make eggs I put a teaspoon or less of oil let it melt and then add the eggs and add a little seasoning and he has eggs with no dairy if you punch in Dr. Fife you can get the products on line or try to go to a health food store and see if the will order it for you. They also have books about the benefits of coconut oil and how beneficial it is over soy and it being a medium chain fatty acid its actually very good for you. If you need any help have been dealing with no dairy for almost a year now. Good Luck!

Hello. I’m glad to hear you are feeling better.
After reading the post regarding the food allergies, I think you may be interested in reading “Healthier without wheat” by Dr Stephen Wangen. It’s really interesting and great for anyone even without a proven wheat allergy.
Thanks for giving us menu ideas and ways to save.

I made PW’s salad last week, the day it came out (I was grocery shopping that day and had to make it), and it is to DIE for.

Oh I’m so glad you got your new list of foods to avoid, sometimes that is half the battle isn’t it. What a blessing to be able to use regular flour, that should open up a lot of options for you.

What a great trade you made with the freezer meals…win win all around…yay!!
