Gluten Free

Morning Breakfast Kyle made for me. It has gluten-free meat balls (trader-Joe's), turkey bacon (trader Joe's), tomatoes, peppers and asparagus.

As most of you know Over the past year and a half I had to change my eating habits. At first it was really easy but I was also pregnant. During my pregnancy it got a little harder. I was craving things I could not eat. I found out during my pregnancy with Caleb the wheat didn't bother me. So I ate all that I could. This year I have been trying to get back on track. One because we think Caleb had a small sensitivity to dairy and I also was getting stomach aches again. Caleb did a lot better since I stopped eating yogurt but my stomach issue was still bad. With my husband's help we got back on track. The hardest part about being gluten and wheat free is going out to eat. I have found that a lot of restaurants do serve gluten free stuff or I just have to ask for no bun or bread. I have also given up sweets for Lent. I have done this before but never really put it into practice where I rely on God for help. I found that I am pretty weak and craving a lot of unhealthy eating. When that kicks in I do pray and I have found strength to redirect my eating habits. This is not easy for me because I love all kinds of food. I am not a big vegetable eater either. I have found better ways do eat vegetables, like dipping it into humus or grilling it for breakfast with my gluten-free meatballs. Here are a couple of dishes that Kyle made me for breakfast and I made for dinner. They are truly yummy.

Chicken stuffed with cheese and Asparagus. It has lemon, salt, pepper and some gluten-free breadcrumbs on top. Most of you know I am not much of a cook. Being allergic to stuff has made me cook from home a lot more.
