Oh My!… Oooh Mommy! Umami!

King Trumpet Mushrooms

King trumpet mushrooms sauteed in coconut oil with mixed greens sprinkled with pink Himalayan salt.

More of this please!! This was so good, I’m glad I was home alone for supper so I could eat it all!!

I was tempted to add garlic, because I love garlic and I love garlic with mushrooms, but I am moving in the direction of experimenting with eliminating FODMAP*s for a bit to see what impact that might have.

*FODMAPs — an acronym for a long scientific term applied to a class of foods that can cause digestive issues for some people. FODMAPs include: apples, onions, garlic, leeks. See chart here.

No Deprivation Here — Grassfed Lamb

I know my meal pictures are not photographic gems because I am taking them with my phone under a cabinet tasklight CFL, but the meals we have been eating since I started the AIP three weeks ago are definitely gustatory gems. Today’s lunch was another satisfying, healing and mouth-watering delight, prepared by my generous spouse who is super supportive and accompanying me along my healing journey.

We are in a pattern of him preparing the weekend meals. I love this pattern!… Today he prepared grilled pastured lamb chops served with a pesto oil, mushrooms sauteed in virgin palm oil (rich in carotenes and vitamin E), and mixed green salad with pesto oil drizzled over that too.
