But if I had started her earlier on a better diet as you are doing with Charlie, she might have adjusted sooner. Carbs. . . yep, she loves em'! And vegetables and green things are still an area we need to improve in, although she is learning to appreciate healthy treats. Have you tried Quinoa as a carb/grain/pasta substitute? Really tasty and it is actually a seed so it is higher in protein than brown rice and very nutritious. Carrie LOVES this and it's fairly cheap too. You're right about the price of stevia. . . Ouch! I order it at Vitacost.com and with free shipping (here in the States) it's the lowest price I can find anywhere. I'm pretty sure they ship world wide but perhaps not without cost. The best deal is their 2-pack of 12 oz tubs of NuStevia for about $24. That lasts us about 3 to 4 months if we are careful so we buy it quarterly and use sparingly. Much, much cheaper than buying it locally. I do the same thing with their organic coconut oil in the 54 oz tubs. We also use green powder supplements that we 'hide' in food like smoothies, scrambled eggs, etc. Most green powders are really expensive except what we found at a store here in the states called 'Trader Joes'. It's their 'Super Green Food' supplement that is really affordable. About $10.00 worth lasts 2 months when we give her one serving per day. I don't know if you can find a similar product in your area or if you might be able to buy it online at their website or Amazon? If not, just juicing green vegies or if you don't have a juicer, puree them in a food processor or blender. Better, fresher. . . and cheaper. You can hide the puree in so many things. Also make 'green lemonade' everyday, sweetening it with stevia and adding green powder or juiced/pureed greens. It was frowned upon at first but now she thinks it's cool since we started calling it 'dragonfly punch'. Someone gave us a gift of a dragonfly shaped ice-cube tray so those help create a charm to the idea of green. Anything to bring in the 'cute factor' :-). We also make 'sneaky' mashed potatoes. . i.e. just puree cooked & drained cauliflower and add salt, pepper and butter. Not green per say but not too bad and it is alkalizing. Sorry for the long response. Hope these suggestions might be helpful for you and Charlie. I still have some actual recipes that might be helpful too and will post more soon. Hope there are other Mom's & Dads out there with suggestions who might get in the discussion too. Deborah |
