    UC Flare....

    By Ennis-TX,

    Things other then gluten

    By Ennis-TX,

    So I have found some other issues I have found with my fracked up gut I thought I would share....rare anyone could relate to some of these but throwing it out there.

    For me my body gets moody after being sick, eating something it disagrees with, or for months after a exposure. During these times my diet has to lack peppers, easy on tomatoes, garlic, and onions as well as be cooked super tender and or homogenized before cooking (IE blended soups, blending meats/veggies...

    Mixed Day.

    By Ennis-TX,

    SO today was a mixed day.

    First thing this morning my emotional support animal died, I talked on a forum for his kind and his quick and sudden death was said to sound like he ate something poisonous. I figure a wild cricket got in to his enclosure and he ate it. (their is poison applied around the outside of the building)

    Moving on from that, I think I perfected making a hostess doughnut knock off and will post this later
    I found I could modify my...

    Panko Fried Chicken

    By Ennis-TX,

    This one uses a really thick heavy batter to make the breading stick better. For the panko I used seasoned pork rinds crushed enough to be breading with a extra 2 tsp of bbq rub mixed in but you can use baconshair pork panko and season however you want.

    4 oz pork rinds crushed into a powder like texture(or pulsed in a food processor with the seasonings)
    2tsp  or so of seasoning of taste whisked in with the pork rind panko
    2ish lbs of chicken cut into nuggets ...

    September 2019 Update

    By Ennis-TX,

    Well I started off doing breakfast bars at the farmers market yesterday.
    A unforcasted thunderstorm rained it out but I ended up with 6 orders from regulars for curbside pick up lol. I still have all my baked goods in the display fridge in the store front window but low sales there. >.< I did go ahead and chop up toast, and currently dehydrating the bagels into bagel chips. I think I will be eating waffles, turkey sausage, paleo bread, and cookies for the next week...

    So two weekends ago I was sharing a room in a hotel with a couple for a convention I was attending with my normal chef kit set up and brought tons of baked goods, full on meals, etc all Paleo and gluten free enough for the 3 of us 3 meals a day for 4 days with snacks (about $150 worth). I set ground rules of no corn, or gluten in the room since I react the worst to them....well it went pretty bad. They could not seem to grasp this concept and kept bringing in and spilling corn...

    August Update 2019

    By Ennis-TX,

    So been playing with a few things and testing some waters.

    Recipe wise I have 3 different chocolate chip cookie recipes I do now for my bakery the last 2 developed these last few weeks, one puffy soft cookie, one flat soft slightly chewy cookie. I was inspired by National Chocolate Chip day earlier in the week. My previous ones had the texture of a crunchy chips ahoy.
    I been talking with my mom about recreating my grandmas tamales using a recipe I found for...

    This is interesting and requires some specialty products, I found this was a challenge to cook for someone and it turned out pretty good, the following makes a single serving.
    1 Package Miracle Noodle Angel Hair rinsed and prepared
    2 tbsp Coconut Flakes (Lets go Organic work great)
    1/4 Cup Scrambleit By Spero Foods
    1/4 Cup (56g) Chevre by Spero Foods (the Smoked Paprika takes this next level)

    July Update 2019

    By Ennis-TX,

    Bit late but dealing with various issues.
    Medical, oh recall the scope I went to get down and MOSTLY covered by medicare so I only had to pay $50 down and $50 a month for 4 months for the hospital? Well now the GI doc is billing AGAIN for some $10 (random) and then the LAB contacts me saying I need to pay over $2k for pathology reports....what?! I have to ask is there some law where they have to give cost up front for planned procedure that goes fine? Because hitting with...

    Mothers Meat Loaf

    By Ennis-TX,

    So in a effort to make meat loafs I have gone through several versions with 3 I still do I use 2 cooking methods depending on time, I can cook normally in the oven in a meat loaf pan (made to drain the grease) Or I can use my instapot version and do it in smaller loafs each a bit over 1lb 2 at a time. First I will start with the one I often fix my parents I based it off my mothers recipe just subbed in almond flour for saltines and plain tomato sauce for ketchup. I will post...

    GI Report

    By Ennis-TX,

    So I had my follow up appointment with my new GI to go over my pathology report. There are no signs of celiac or UC, he said there were no medications he needed to prescribe and that my treatment regime was working great. He suggested my random digestive issues could be a new sensitivity or a intolerance or even hormone related like with insulin.
    He was quite surprised with the UC healing without RX and even had to get my old records from the GI that diagnosed it. >...

    I often suggest making crustless quiches to people, here is one of the base recipes I have used.
    10 Slices of Turkey Bacon, Cooked and chopped (I did a mix of crispy and chewy cooked)

    1/4 onion sliced very thin (mandolin helps)
    6 large Eggs
    3/4 cup Almond or Coconut Milk
    8oz Shredded Dairy Free Cheese...

    By Ennis-TX,

    Lemon Squares and Bars
    invented several recipes and these 2 took the top Being mothers day I was trying to recreate lemon squares that are safe for us.
    2nd Place Lemon Bars, These use an almond meal base I use for a pie crust infused with lemon, then topped with a custard inspired lemon topping that is cooked into it.
    1st place used a coconut flour pastry pie crust, then mixed up a gelling mix of konjac flour, lemon and eggs, heated mixed, and poured on top...

    So while I need an initial 30k to finance the food truck, then have heavy overhead, a very strict health inspector the has it out for food trucks keeping me from daily vending in town (next town over is nice), seasonal sales, and tons of permits and regulations. I was approached with a different concept by someone.
    A mobile video gaming trailer via a franchise what will provide support and booking, this would not need the extra permits, very limited overhead, and only...

    May Update 2019

    By Ennis-TX,

    Well, may is Celiac Awareness month lol, so I am offering discounts at markets I am setting up at this month. I can say I am needing to adjust pricing some, I am getting $3 on an Omelet on a stick (Turkey Bacon or Sausage in the center with eggs cooked on it served on a stick) I am thinking of upping to $4 each and $5 at events. My Stir Fry is getting great reviews from those who try it, but it is a bad product price wise. I need to get $10-12 each to turn a good profit but...

    New GI Doc

    By Ennis-TX,

    Well, I saw a new PCP about a month ago, completely useless, and then charged me a ridiculous co-pay I could not even afford (I got out of this on a technicality on their part). Anyway, he just heard my issues and got me an appointment with a GI doc. I saw the GI doc yesterday told him of my issues and the random daily cowpie like BMs on and off I have been having since a gluten exposure in August.  He got me arranged for dual scope next week. The best thing is I only have ...

    To Frankenstein, a dish in the name of experimenting is quite common with food. I recently did something with funny results and lessons learned I think some might find amusing.

    So my concept was to make a gluten-free soft moist brownie and sugar-free. I have done this with thick nut butter like sunbutter before, and iffy results with thinner ones. But I wanted something moister, so I had some avocados >.>. Yeah this is where the Frankenstein reference comes...
