Switched over

I am now switched over to SCD fully. I really need to get some snacks and sweets prepared because I am starving and it's my own fault really. This diet really requires advance planning of a menu and extra prep time when it is actually time to cook since things are considerably more fresh as far as ingrediants go. We've done a few stir fry type dishes, with spice variations to keep it interesting.

This week I made a skillet hotdish...with beans and hamburger. Crock pot fajitas and crock pot venison roast were 2 other meals. We're grilling steaks on Valentine's day, leftovers tonight and I'm not sure what for tomorrow. In addition to planning things out better, I need to work on expanding my recipe 3 ring binder and makingbetter use of the crock pot more since my 2 helpers really aren't all that helpful with meal prep yet.

Here's my latest hobby!

I have taken up knitting too, that's been fun. It's a chance for me to escape, let daddy take over and talk with grown-ups. I've completed a hat, purse and some mittens. Next I'm going to work on fingerless gloves and a felted basket.

Cleaning the cabinets

Yogurt "cooking" in the dehydrator!

Bag of foods I can no longer have!

The pantry cupboard.

The kitchen cupboard

I purged our cupboards of alot of illegal foods. Some I am keeping for hubby and the girls. It's so nice to have things in orderly fashion. My next new years cleaning project will be the entry way and office. Those areas need help (again)!

I am still in the "preparing to transition" phase of SCD. I have begun eating some SCD foods while using up some stock in our cupboards/freezer. It seemed silly to waste food when I am overall feeling fine at the moment. I have not bought more cases of pop (I did have a can last night). I have cut down on my cereal intake too. Tonight we are grilling venison tenderloin and the marinade is SCD compliant!
