Snack ideas for my 4 yo son

[Guest guest]

Hi,

My son has been on the diet since the day after Thanksgiving. I'm

having a really hard time coming up with snack ideas for him. Prior

to SCD, he was GFCF for close to one year. These are the foods he

can eat:

chicken, beef, pork, turkey

green beans and carrots

butternut squash (he LOVES it pureed and eats it with lunch and

supper as a side dish everyday - one of these days, I fear he will

turn orange!!)

pear sauce

carrot pancakes

eggs (as an ingredient. He doesn't like cooked eggs)

herbs and spices: cinnamon, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, salt,

pepper, parsley, basil

garlic

meatloaf (with parsley, salt, pepper, and butternut squash)

He is currently taking Diflucan for yeast overgrowth.

Before the diet, he was addicted to carbs. He REALLY misses bread

and biscuits.

I've looked at cookbooks, websites, etc trying to find things to

give him between meals. He's lost three pounds and is always hungry.

I'm not really worried about him losing weight since I know he'll

gain it back as we keep adding more foods to his diet. I just hate

the fact that he's always looking for something to eat.

I've tried the chicken cupcakes and squash muffins and he wasn't too

crazy about the texture of it. He also didn't like homemade jello.

When can we start adding nut butters? When first starting them, do

we have to make them ourselves or can we buy a commerical brand?

Which nut would be the best to start with?

I really don't want to introduce any dairy right now. When we

removed dairy from his diet earlier this year, we noticed HUGE

improvements with his behavior and mood but not so much difference

with going gluten-free.

He doesn't have diarrhea issues or bm problems normally. He's

pretty much tolerated most everything we've tried, except spinach

and tomatoes. We'll try tomatoes in another few weeks.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm getting really

desperate! HELP!!!

Thanks.

Hi Judy,

I think you could try the nut butter brownies. My son

is five and we started just before Thanksgiving.

There's a recipe in BTVC for peanut butter brownies

and we use the 365 brand almond butter from Whole

Foods. It's the cheapest at $6 for a jar.

The only problem with eating them is limiting yourself

to just one or two. They are very good in my opinion!

I adjusted the recipe to add 1/2 tsp legal vanilla and

1/2 tsp salt. I also decrease the honey to 1/3 cup.

Thanks so much for responding to my question!! I'm in the process of getting my

grocery list together and am very anxious to try a few new things for him to

help curb his hunger. He was never like this before the diet. I guess the

starches (mashed potatoes with dinner) helped keep him full.

Do you know if there is a particular order that we should try nuts? I know

someone mentioned that pecans were easier to digest and that peanut butter and

cashew butter were more advanced. I have a jar of Maranatha almond butter in my

pantry that I've been waiting to use. I guess now is as good of a time as any

to try it. I've been a little nervous about trying nut butters but he seems

like he's been tolerating everything else on the diet pretty well.

Wish us luck!

French fried squash

chicken nuggets (in a food processor, grind together squash, chicken, 1 egg, a

little salt, and fry or bake

chicken pancakes

Can he have any cooking oil? Coconut oil, olive oil, safflower oil?

After he's been on SCD long enough, you will be able to add more foods.

Judy,

Good luck! As I looked at your food list again,

another thing that will help is to increase fats. I

did not see a whole lot of fat on that list, and kids

NEED fat. Fats from meats are hard to digest in the

beginning, but you can cook with olive oil. I fry up

carrot pancakes in a decent amount of olive oil, for

example and I add olive oil to pans of boneless

skinless chicken breasts. Have you tried avocado? Raw

avocado is on stage 2. I like it plain with salt but

you can add it to egg bread and other things.

There is a lot of fat in the nut butter products which

also helps with feeling full.

In the beginning I did not tolerate the almond butter

but my son had no problems. In a week or two, I was

able to tolerate it as well.

I think other nuts are easier to digest but almond

butter was the easiest for me to get.

Hi Judy,

Your son's symptoms and sense of humor sound like my son! He'll be

four tomorrow. Regarding the snacks, I want to echo what B.

suggested which is to add the nut butter. It is legal once you are in

Stage 2. The brownies ARE good, and you can also make the fruit

muffins on the pecanbread website, and the carrot cake from the BTVC

book. If you add the Honey Frosting from the BTVC book to any of

them, it's practically outstanding!! We made the carrot cake with the

frosting for my son's b-day party yesterday, and it was a huge hit!

I also made some cookies from one of those 2 sources with Stage 2

appropriate food, drizzled them with some of the honey frosting, and

they were good, too! I put the frosting in a zip lock bag, cut off a

tiny corner, and I was able to control the frosting as a fine stream.

(I actually used that to write on his cake!)

We are trying to slowly transition to Stage 3 now, so the b-day carrot

cake was made with Pecan flour, which I've recently learned is easier

to digest, (and lower in salicylates) but in Stage 2, we substituted

almond butter exclusively for recipes that called for nut flour. I

suppose you can continue grinding the pecans to make butter, but I

haven't done it yet. Maybe someone with experience with that will

chime in.

Good Luck!

Hi Judy,

Increased appetitie is very common especially for children at the

onset of the diet.

The hunger increase comes from many things:

- they start to feel well so their appetite returns

- they need extra food energy for the healing process (depending on

severity of symptoms some may also need extra rest at the beginning)

- once the healing process begins many children go through delayed

growth spurts. Many children who are sick have delayed growth or

stop growing - once the body is doing better it often kicks the

growth process into high gear. I developed UC as a teenager and when

I started taking meds and improving I hit a growth spurt and grew

three inches taller in 3 months. Needless to say I bumped into a

lot of things.

The good news is that this is usually temporary and when weight,

growth and ealing balance out the appetite should normalize.

Someone had told me that another reason they are so hungry is from

lack of fat? Since most of the foods they eat are so healthy. Just

a thought>>>>>

Fat (good fats) help with calories and the full feeling. However for

a damaged gut fats can be hard to digest (That is why there is next to

no fat on the intro diet) and make symptoms worse. Some will see

floating stools or a layer of " grease " with bm's. As the body heals
