We've just returned from a 10 day trip to the East Coast to visit family. It is always interesting to navigate food when we're out of town. I was thrilled to find a large health food department at the Wegman's chain in upstate NY, and then comforted to find the local home grown health food store in Guilford CT.
Whenever we plan a trip we call ahead to the local stores to see what we will be able to get there, and what we need to pack. This trip we only packed our airplane cooler and got everything else on site. Not cheap, but comforting and we were able to feed our son what he needed to work around his allergies, and I was able to eat what I need to to feel my best.
It is my belief that once you figure out what foods work best for your body there is almost never a reason to stray...unless you want to. It's just a matter of prioritizing your own health. Aunt Betty who tries to get you to eat her homemade bundt cake will just have to understand...you're committed to your new way of eating, and you've never felt better.
Check out these blogs I stumbled upon this morning. I'm printing some of the recipes to try in the next few weeks.
Organic Thrifty
Everything-free Recipes
(This site uses some products that I don't particularly like but it looks like there are lots of recipes that fill my bill of healthy gluten, grain, or dairy free healthy eating. If it fits into your nutrition plan, you can just swap things out if necessary!)
In Health,
