Hi Anitha,

Our daughter eats the same thing for breakfast every day: 2 pc. turkey

bacon and a bowl of dry rice crispies. For lunch she usually eats a

medallion of creamy goat cheese (it comes in individual packets from

Trader Joes), 2 pc. turkey bacon, and either an apple or banana.

Sometimes she will have a sandwich instead of the turkey bacon and

sometimes she will take a little peanut butter to dip her apples in.

Dinner is usually chicken, steak, burger with a bun or potato pancakes

as the bun (it sounds crazy but it's good) or salmon. Twice a week at

most we have white rice, once or twice a week we have potato pancakes.

That's pretty much it. For snacks she will eat bananas, carrots and

dairy free ranch, potato chips. She eats choc. ice cream made with goat

milk a few times a week. She drinks water all day.

I hope this helps! It's a pretty boring diet but she's happy so I'm happy!

Hi Kathi,

I make them both. The recipe (I use this term loosely since I really

don't measure) I use for ranch is about 1 cup of soy milk (we use

unsweetened), add about 1 TBSP lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, onion

powder (I prob. use about 1 tsp each, maybe a bit more of the onion),

parsley (about 1 TBSP) and whisk it all up. Add about 2 cups of mayo

(we use Spectrum) and whisk. That's it! For the potato pancakes, put 2

med. potatoes (I don't peel) and one onion in food processor with the

grind insert. Add one egg, about 2 TBSP potato starch and pulse until

all the big pieces are gone. Heat oil and fry them up. I usually make

them about 1 heaping TBSP size so they cook faster. I don't add salt

but I like them better with salt.

Good luck,
