Guest guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hi Kirsty Although my son is quite good about eating vegetables he will not eat them with breakfast as he insists they should only be eaten with lunch/dinner! I found that mixing up a small avocado with a banana and a couple of tablespoons of tropicana orange juice in the food processor and then freezing it to make " ice cream " has been a good way to get him have something other than protein for breakfast. hth majidha mum to A-ASD SCD 6 wks,Ileitis and reflux prednisolone,pentasa and omeprazole ___________________________________________________________ Want ideas for reducing your carbon footprint?

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 yes, my daughter eats too much meat too and it showed true in her labs. She's getting Kiotonic (Sp?)Not good, liver effected,etc..So I try my best to withhold her meat till she eats her fruits & veggies. She also gets yeasty so I have to watch her fruit too.uughh...it's a constant balacing act. It's a valid concern. > > Hi, > > I am a mum to a 5 year old autistic boy on the diet.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 I also sneak vegetables and fruits in my boys all the time. I make a vegetable and fruit purees that I use for all my cooking. I use my smoothie maker to blend is smooth. I then use it as a binder in my hamburger, as a sauce for dipping sour chicken. I mix it into our scrambled eggs, make fruit and egg custard like dishes, put it into our nut bread, make gravies from it, popsicles, muffins, add it to my chicken pancakes and the list can go on. Sunday night I boil enough vegetables to make puree for the week. I freeze half of it so it will keep all week. Using the smoothie makes makes the vegetables and fruit virtually undetectable in the dishes. Cindy Mom to and SCD six months just is officially lost his ASD dx today!!!!! Although he will be on biomed treatments and scd for at least the next two years. dx has now been change from Autistism to PDD-NOS. It has paid to be on strict SCD. high protein worry > Hi Kirsty > > Although my son is quite good about eating vegetables he will not eat them > with breakfast as he insists they should only be eaten with lunch/dinner! > I found that mixing up a small avocado with a banana and a couple of > tablespoons of tropicana orange juice in the food processor and then > freezing it to make " ice cream " has been a good way to get him have > something other than protein for breakfast. > hth > majidha > mum to A-ASD SCD 6 wks,Ileitis and reflux > prednisolone,pentasa and omeprazole > > > ___________________________________________________________ > Want ideas for reducing your carbon footprint?

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Hi Kirsty, Have you tried adding veggies to his omelettes? You can puree avocadoes with eggs and make Martian omelettes/pancakes. Carrost, Squash etc can be baked into meatloaf and burgers. Many cooked veggies can be pureed into spaghetti sauce: beets, carrots etc... Another option is juicing fruits and veggies (which need to be diluted) . If he won't drink it you can treat it like medicine and put it in a medicine dropper.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Kirsty, Even before SCD, I used things like zucchini and carrots in scrambled eggs and pureed veg or fruit pancakes/waffles/muffins to sneak in good stuff. Pureed veg. also hide well in pasta sauce (for use later maybe with spaghetti squash) or over meat as a sauce. My son is son used to his eggs having veg in them (though he doesn't know it) that when my husband made him plain scrambled eggs once, he did not want to eat them because he complained that that is not the way eggs look! You might start with a little bit and slowly add in so that he does not reject the food because it looks too different.
