    Well the D stopped finally...I have dropped 7 pounds in the past few weeks. I now have multiple intolerance issues back....garlic, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, red pepper, bell pepper, chicken stock, egg yolks, are all off the menu and cause vomiting again . Back to sweet nut based porridge for a few more weeks.

    Amusingly my nerve damage is something else. Christmas day, I was taking stuff out of the oven without a mit/towel...handling hot pots etc....my mother pointed...

    Mothers Squash Soup

    By Ennis-TX,

    This is a simple squash some from my mothers recipe, I personally make it with just chicken bone broth, and it is great on a cold day. Can be made with Vegtable Broth instead like Pacifics and no meat for a vegan version.
    1-2 cup chopped turkey or chicken
    5 tender zucchini sliced or chopped (mexican squash also works)
    1/2 cup onion chopped
    1/2cup - 1 can diced tomatoes
    1 garlic clove crushed
    1 tsp cumin
    salt and pepper to taste

    Chiropractor

    By Ennis-TX,

    So I saw a chiropractor today after noticing some nerve issues, neck pain and a spasm in my back. I talked them down on cost to a $35 xray and examination, and a $50 adjustment down from $257 and $65. So what I learned, I have a S shaped curvature to my spine that needs to be alignged, and I have osteoporosis in my neck . SO that is the issue with my neck pains.  I can not afford to get the proper adjustments that I need. I opted instead to do them on a monthly basis which ...

    Thoughts for june

    By Ennis-TX,

    So considering a icecream machine for setting up at the market for awhile and doing catering, I tried a softserve machine and fell in love with the idea. But now after failing to raise the money for it and considering more issues with pros and cons I am opting to something a tad different. Biggest issues with the soft serve machine, the freezing cylinder has to have mix it to run properly, which leads to waste. And second it it limited to 1 flavor at a time in large batches...

    April 2020

    By Ennis-TX,

    Recovered fully from having the surgery removing my appendix in 12 days...literally back to lifting weights (no more then 40lbs for the first month is my personal set limit)....day 1 after I was back to 10 miles a day on a under desk elliptical...but I go crazy if not moving.

    This Virus has shut down the farmers markets, and only had 1 order in the past month, so paying bills is not possible via normal methods.....I am cooking meals for my landlord daily to pay rent...

    January 2020

    By Ennis-TX,

    So starting off the new year with a bit of a big investment using all my savings. Due to health issues being worse now traveling has become a joke, like removing the second row seating from my vehicle and replacing it with a portable toilet with chemical disposal tank....yeah I had to.
    So this topped with having to rent a hotel every time I want to stay out late has made me invest in a new vehicle with bathroom, sink, bed, and kitchen area. Initially I was thinking a small...

    So today I started some experimenting, I used what I learned from my protein sticky dough experiment about psyliumm husk gelling with warm liquids and applying it with a gluten free flour mixture (almond/coconut/Swerve/guar gum )then taking the hot mix and cooling then adding in the eggs and baking powder akin to a choux pastry dough I can get amazing rise and super puffy results. Hmm it reminded me of the base doughnuts that you add creme fillings to it was that puffy and...

    So needing to find a keto brownie that would be easy to digest I found a recipe and modified it to fit my needs. These are best served hot so leftovers are best heated before serving.
    By the way if you have a icing or some chocolate syrup I would suggest serving it drizzles over these it adds a wonderful touch.

    6oz Sugar Free Baking Chips (Pascha is what I used)
    1/4 Cup + 2 tbsp (84g) Nutiva Butter Flavored Coconut oil
    1 1/4 Cup (250g) Swerve  Divided<...

    November Update 2019

    By Ennis-TX,

    So my health is quite bad, the GI upset has leveled out after 4 weeks the bleeding stopped with vitamin K and calcium enriched almond milk daily to encourage clotting. My diet has been mostly meat, vegan cheese, collagen and almond milk drinks, and snacking on pork rinds. I recent introduced some almond yogurt to try and populate my gut bacteria and kale for vitamins. The diarrhea is still daily and is quite annoying, the anemia is also persistent and I am sleeping a lot more...

    Secret Sauce

    By Ennis-TX,

    So each place has it's own secret sauce, this is the one I use for burgers and dips.
    You can use more mayo instead of yogurt for a better spread for burgers.

    1/2 cup (120g) Almond Yogurt Kite Hill Plain Unsweetened
    16 Dill hamburger Pickle Chips (56g)

    This recipe even has a great way to get the skin off, I find this recipe to be really diet friendly, no added salt, no onion, garlic, or pepper.

    1lb Salmon Center Cut
    1 Lemon Sliced up
    1 tbsp oil of choice (I used avocado but gee, or olive would be nice)
    2 tbsp cooking white wine
    Dried or fresh dil for garnish

    1. Preheat oven to 475F
    2. Put the oil in your dish (I used a oven safe skillet but a baking dish would work), Put half...

    So I got a good deal at a restaurant auction for a prep center brand new at 1/30th retail. Seems the manufacturer of the custom unit forgot something looking at design notes....it was supposed to be modular to fit in a building. Well it is one solid 97"x48" stainless unit welded to a steel frame, which requires removing my door, removing the door frame, and using a engine hoist from the machine shop next door and 4 guys to to get in on its side.

    Next issue I am having...

    June 2019 Update

    By Ennis-TX,

    Well, farmers market sales have been up and down, but I got great news on them redoing the laws here. I can now offer and sell my baked goods online and actually advertise about it, so working on an online site now. 

    The building I live in might be sold soon, this is sort of a good thing, I will get enough money out of it to build a cheap steel building and frame out the inside, this time making a separate commercial kitchen (commissary). This way I can legally ...

    Monte Cristo Knock off
    This is not the Cheddar's Monte Cristo from my childhood, I could make one more like it but I can not justify spending $30 in initial products.
    I bought a store brand of Gluten Free and Grain Free bread from Whole Foods for a proof of concept over using my own. BUT this would probably be better with thick canyon bake house slices.
    So this is more like a french toasted battered turkey and cheese sandwich, feel free to up the antsy...

    By Ennis-TX,

    Found a way to make low carb and dairy free green bean casserole. As a kid I only really ate the French onions on top so I loaded a whole special batch of them on my casserole. Start by making my French fried onions from the other post but add in 2 thin sliced scallion. Then the following.
