What I Eat - Clean Eating

I went (car) camping for the weekend and everything that I prepared was completely hypoallergenic (meaning that there were no ingredients that are generally known to cause allergic or intolerant reactions).   I decided to cook everything in advance and carry it in a cooler.  So.... my photo are a little bit less attractive this week, and the dishes are very simple :)

As a side note, I offer this service in my practice through something called an 'Elimination Diet.'  This specialized diet is a method to determine what foods disagree with your system.  For a period of time a special restricted diet is consumed, and then potential problem foods are introduced systematically.   The Elimination Diet is an ideal way to bring balance and healing to your body in a thorough and cost-effective manner.  Please contact me if you're interested in learning more about it!
