Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 We have been 100% SCD compliant since spring (when I finally had the courage to give up the young coconut kefir, with positive results). Anyway, Peyton (7, with autism and extreme short gut) still has a lot of intolerances (honey, most cheese, eggs, anything nuts-related). He just became a cub scout, and they're doing the first camping trip this coming Friday (the 21st). We just took a week-long Disney vacation in August, so an overnight camping trip is not a big deal (just a pain for Mom!). But he desparately wants something to do when they're roasting marshmallows. I am racking my brain trying to figure out something, and we can't do the marshmallow recipe. Any other ideas? I don't know if it would work, but I considered banana on a stick (only half joking here, was thinking we could lightly dust with nut flour). Ugh, Donna Jo (whose kid normally is GREAT about diet but really wants something like toasted marshmallows) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 I made a marshmallow like substance with egg white. I whipped them and put them in the oven on 350 until the were a little brown. I used a big tablespoon and scooped them on to parchment paper on a cookie sheet. I took them out and they had the consitancy of marshmallow. You could sweeten it with honey or whatever you use for sweetner. It takes very little honey to sweeten them. My boys have honey sensitivities too (makes them weepy) but for some reason when I made these, they were fine. I only used a half teaspoon for four egg whites. The consitancy of the merangue (spelling) was very much like marshmallow and my twins thought they were actually marshmallows. They would probably toast more on a stick. Good luck. I hope he has fun.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Grilled fruit in general is considered tasty (I don't grill). One online article suggested that pieces of: peaches, nectarines, apricots, fresh pineapple, bananas, cantaloupe and similar melons be grilled on a skewer. So holding the skewer over a campfire would work, too. mom to -12 SCD 4/23/04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 I grilled pineapple on a long stick over a campfire the summer. It was very good but hot and I burned my mouth.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Camping ideas: When I was growing up in Switzerland, it was very common, around a campfire, to stick and apple on a stick and roast it, and then eat it. Very yummy. Another thing we did was make a slit in a banana and then put pieces of chocolate in, wrap in alumninum foil and bake in the fire (We called them banana boats), and then scoop out the melted banana/ chocolate goo with a spoon. Of course the chocolate is not scd compliant, but the idea makes me remember that the banana was very yummy baked like that. One could put natural peanut butter in there for an scd legal version, instead of the chocolate, but of course you said your son can't do nuts. The banana in foil alone would also be yummy, I think. Or with a wee bit of honey and cinnamon on there....mmmm. Just some ideas from the other side of the globe. Alana Sheldahl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 What a great tip! I'm not the original poster, but I too am planning some upcoming camping trips and facing the, " what to do around the campfire " question. Banana is one of the few things we CAN tolerate and reading this banana boat idea has just made my day!!!!! Thanks! K in Dayton, Ohio Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Fibro, CFS, yeast/candida, copper overload, adrenal fatigue (mostly healed!!!) Kids: son Rhowan 5 yrs old, chronic diarrhea/loose stools, yeast/candida, ADHD, salicylate intolerance; daughter Willow 6.5 yrs old, NT, mild GI issues, yeast/candida, salicylate intolerance Started SCD June 2006, went slightly off for awhile in Nov 2006, back on strict SCD starting May 2007. (Redid intro the last week of June 2007 and recently discovered that most carbs have to be thoroughly pureed in order for my son to tolerate them). Sept 07 UPDATE: Seeing MAJOR improvement in behavior and salicylate tolerance, son has FINALLY potty-trained, and he is having frequent " trophies.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 On my side of the globe we make barbeques when we go camping: egg plants (sliced barbeque on both sides and then spinkled with olive oil, mint or basil leaves), barbequed zucchini and barbequed legal cheese (like emmenthal, I suppose cheddar cheese woul do). This was also made at the bonfire when I was little (every child held a long fork on the fire with the cheese stuck on it and then quickly put on a slice of bread), cashew nut bread of course.
