For lunch we had chicken sandwiches on gluten free buns, roasted okra, and corn on the cob. Corn on the cob is one of my favorite foods! It's a must have at the state fair, I would take roasted corn over a corn dog or fried Twinkie any day. The gluten free buns weren't great, I didn't even finish mine. And they were expensive!
For dinner I was going to make stuffed bell peppers but I ended up just throwing the cooked rice, taco meat, and roasted squash and peppers together in a bowl. Flavor wise it was great, but it was just so heavy.
None of us had any reactions but I felt sluggish all day. Just not my usual self.
The jury is still out on grains. I haven't decided if they are going to be a part of our regular diet. I kind of feel like we have done just fine without them. And if I'm being honest, the littlest man will shove bread in his face over vegetables any day. Heck, most of us will so we are just going to keep stocking the fridge and filling the plates with the healthiest food possible. But, I'm not necessarily opposed to giving the boys oatmeal or rice occasionally.
There are also a few "paleo" things that we have thought about trying, like coconut flour muffins. I'm pretty sure that if we can find a few new treats for special occasions the boys are going to be thrilled.
