Here is a collection of beginner recipes. I hope to soon add others.

HTH,

The Squash buttons recipe is as follows:

1 large baked acorn squash (about 1 1/2 to 2 cups)

or you can use butternut squash also

2-3 eggs

2 tbls. honey

Dash of cinnamon

Blend in the blender until smooth, then spoon into mini muffin pan.

Make sure the pan is well greased, and only fill about 1/2 full. Bake

at 300 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes. You want them to be pulling away

from the sides of the pan and look dry and browned around the edges.

They will be delicate, so you will need to carefully remove them with a

knife by cutting around the edges and carefully lifting them out. They

make a good finger food and snack for school.

Additional comment:

I use coconut or grapeseed oil in my pans, then when

they come out of the oven I loosen the sides of each button with a

knife and then let them cool a little before trying to lift them out of

the pan.

Did you get the recipe a couple of weeks back for squash buttons by

Debbie K. It does not use any nut flours and my boys just love it.

One large acorn squash cooked

2 eggs

1 tbs honey

a little cinnamon

Blend in food processor and pour small amount 1-2 tsp in well greased

mini muffin pan and bake on 300 degrees for 40 minutes

Her explanation is better than mine, but that is the gist of it. I use

muffin liners and they work just fine.

Jenn & K asked:

Just wondering if the recipe will work with pureed pear or apple?

Debbie's answer:

I did it with banana and they tasted really good, but they had a

different texture than the squash buttons. I think probably any pureed

fruit or vegetable might work with this recipe, but may be slightly

different in texture based on the fruit or vegetable. If you use pear

or apple, I would steam it and then drain it well on a dish towel to

get as much water out as you can. Then, you could puree it with the

eggs. You might want to use an extra egg just so it will hold together

better. Just a thought. Let us know if it works.

============================

Another fruit button recipe

This is my experience. I used the sneaky veggie pancake recipe from

pecanbread.com. I used one cup of pureed fruit or veggie, 4 eggs, 1

tbs coconut oil, tsp vanilla and 1 tsp cinnamon and pureed together.

Instead of cooking up like pancakes, I put it in the mini muffin tin

and cook for the 40 minutes. Ours did come out like the squash

buttons.

Mock Nachos

Ingredients:

butternut squash

nut butter or guacamole

cubed chicken

I cut the neck of a butternut squash in really thin circle slices,

this was going to be pizzas, but turned into nachos. (We live in

Texas.) Bake like squash fries, but for less time.

Then I spread, macadamia butter or guacamole on them and sprinkle

with cooked and cubed chicken. They look just like nachos and my son

really liked them.

Hope this will help someone else that is stuck on a limited food diet.

Soup with butttternut and steak

I made this today, and it was delicious despite it being very basic. I

pealed, seeded, and cut into small chunks a butternut squash. I cut

cube steak into tiny, child's bite sized pieces, and threw them both

in a pot with homemade beef broth. I simmered it literally all day

long. By the time we ate it, everything was super soft. The meat was

actually just as soft and tender as ground beef would be. The

butternut squash did still hold its shape. Maybe you could use this

for him since he loves soup.

Awesome " Chicken Nuggets "

I just made the BEST chicken nuggets and Zack loves them so I have to

share for all those picky eaters out there! He isn't ready for pan-

fried foods so....

1-First I made the cooked mayonaise from the pecanbread website,

2-Then I boiled a pound of boneless chicken breasts.

3-Finely chop the chicken in a food processor.

4- Mix the chicken, mayonaise, salt, and pepper to taste.

(Basically you are making chicken salad)

5- Form spoonfuls of the chicken mixture into " nugget " shapes.

6-Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.

They come out crispy! Zack just loved them. Great dipped in homemade

ketchup too!

le " newbie "

le,

I made your nuggets and thinks they are fantastic! I was also

able to make them with leg meat and with regular [homemeade SCD]

(uncooked) mayo and

not worry since it gets cooked when you bake them.

Listmates are often looking for crunch early in the diet and this fits

the bill--something that can be eaten soon after the intro and has

crunch!

Thanks so much for sharing your recipe.

Early stage snacks:

i'm a beginner too, and we eat these a lot:

green beans + homemade mayo

zucchini-pear sauce

chicken soup (i like to make it with squash and kale) - travels well

in a thermos

chicken chunks

squash french fries (oven baked) - recipe at pecanbread.com

Gelatin squares - made with pineapple juice or Knudsen's Just

Pomegranite juice (sweeten with Pineapple). Cut them with cookie

cutters for interesting shapes if they won't try them at first.

Deviled Eggs (not that my kids will touch them).

Baked Pears are good - peel, slice and de-seed. Put in baking dish,

sprinkle with cinnamon and a little butter (maybe a splash of

pineapple juice), bake for 30 mins at 350F. Since they're left in

whole slices the texture is different from pearsauce.

If you make the Nut free dairy free bread, you can make grilled

cheese sandwiches, egg salad sandwiches, french toast etc...

Although avocado (raw) is listed in stage 2 I was able to tolerate

cooked avocado early. I would blend 1/2 a ripe avocado with ground

chicken in the food processor and make meat patties or meatballs.

With chicken they turned out green so I told my kids they were

martian burgers. If you also made some burgers/meatballs with cooked

carrots and ground chicken they'd turn kind of orangey (unless you

can find the red carrots). Then you'd have red (orange) and green

meatballs. Festive for the Christmas season. I had them with a

little homemade mayonnaisesince I didn't tolerate ketchup. I also

made avocado buns with eggs (half avocado blended with 1 egg and

panfried like pancakes in a bun size).
