Traveling to New Jersey, Fall Farms, and The Weekly Meals!

We are still in farm season mode over here! September through December are the best times to go. We love visiting all the apple orchards, pumpkin patches, and Christmas tree farms! A few weeks ago, we met up with our good friends at Windy Hill Orchard for apple cider donuts, fresh apples, warm apple cider, and a sprint through the apple orchards. It’s so fun watching the kids at this age love every minute of these outings.

We drove up the road to head to my parents house for a backyard bbq. My mom and dad treated us with burgers, hot dogs, and the most delicious sides! It was so cute watching the kids play in the little sandbox and spy on the neighbors dog through the cracks.

It was hard to adapt at first, but without the stomach pains and finally feeling some relief in my joints, it’s been easier to stick to. Less pain > food.
healthy inflammation diet recipes 
Since changing up my diet, my son has been eating better too because I make our meals cohesive. For example, I’ll have cucumber, steak, potatoes, and raspberries, and he’ll have the same with added pita bread, applesauce, and yogurt. I’ve also switched to organic produce and products whenever I can.healthy inflammation diet recipesThis recap will be filled with a lot of not-so-pretty meal pictures, but I wanted to share some ideas of what I’m eating for breakfast that have been helping me so far. I have two full months before my appointments with the gastroenterologist and rheumatologist, so I was advised to follow the FODMAP (as best as I can) as long as it’s helping with some stomach issues in the meantime.

One of my go-to breakfast right now are Purely Elizabeth Oats, a cup of frozen blueberries, water, cinnamon, and maple syrup.

Make sure to read my last recap post to stay up to date on my health journey. I explained it all there.

One of my favorite foods to prepare is this chicken salad. I’ve made it four times in the past two weeks, and I’m currently boiling chicken as I type this to make more. My husband and son love it too, so I don’t mind making extra since they’re also enjoying it.healthy inflammation diet recipes, chicken saladI boil organic chicken breasts in water with Greek seasoning, and once they’re cooked and cooled, I shred them with a fork. Then, I mix in Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Mayo and add more Greek seasoning and pepper until it’s perfectly seasoned!

My son is still on his waffle/pancake kick with peanut butter, chicken sausage, and our go-to elderberry smoothie! He’s a pretty picky eater, but at least he’s consistent with the things he likes. I don’t push too many new foods since he’s great about eating smoothies, chicken, rice, yogurt, and nut butter. I also sneak veggies into his muffins, smoothies, and other recipes whenever I can!
