Suggestions for lunch for an 8 yr old boy

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've finally decided to take the plunge and put myself and my son on the

GAPS diet. I'm actually doing more a low carb with no dairy or grains

whatsoever to start, but my son is doing more the typical GAPS.

He doesn't have any severe physical symptoms, mostly a tendency to end

up with diarrhoea, and ADHD, and Aspergers. I've decided to start now,

because we've been leading up to it with a decrease in dairy and other

processed foods, and an increase in fermented foods. He loves Bubbies'

pickles, and we've made our own ketchup and apricot spread (from NT, but

GAPS appropriate) and I think he's ready and can handle it now.

My big issue is school. I'm fully familiar with the normal baking

options for GAPS; I've low carbed off and on for years, so have some

great recipes, but they are mostly based on almond flour as replacement

for grains. My son is in a nut-free class, and so cannot bring those to

school. I'm making the almond flour egg custards for breakfast, coconut

meringue cookies and muffins for snacks at home, but what can I do for

school lunches?

I've seen posts about coconut flour as the latest in non-grain baking,

but does that work on a GAPS diet? There are some great recipes at:

http://www.tiana-coconut.com/coconut_flour_recipes.htm which would make

life easier, but only if they are allowed on the GAPS diet. Has anyone

tried them or seen anything about coconut flours for the GAPS diet?

Or does anyone have any other suggestions? What about flax seed meal,

(soaked/fermented of course) is that something he can eat on GAPS?

Hoping for more options than I've found so far,

Stef
