Thanks for the heads up about the pate. I also thought I might try to find some good chopped liver recipes that I could spice to his liking.

The rice cakes are Lundberg Organic, so fairly straightforward but I agree it shouldn't get in the way of his eating more nutritious food. We are following Perfect Health Diet, which does call for a small amount of white rice and potatoes, and with time I'm sure we'll figure out what the right amount is for each of us.

Interestingly, my son hasn't once in the last month (since we started doing PHD) asked for bread, which we used to eat a lot of. I've increased the amount and frequency of meat, plus fat like good butter on the sweet potatoes, that we have at meals and I think that has been very satisfying for him!

Thank you again!!

More wonderful ideas! Thanks so much for taking the time. I didn't know about the potted shrimp; sounds delicious. We do need more fish in our diet, and making them into pates is a great idea. The potted meats sound yummy also.

I'm with you (and this article) on the snacking. Unfortunately it is something we have all done around this house for a long time, but that was when we were eating lots of whole grains/beans/light on meat and fat. I need to train myself not to snack as well; honestly, some of it is just habit. However, my son rarely eats breakfast and his school lunch is so-so in nutrition, so he's probably ravenous for "real" food when he gets home. I think I'll make an effort to have a small "meal" waiting for him (not unlike "tea" for kids in the UK?) rather than having him troll for snacks all afternoon. That might tide him over until dinner and help train him to space his eating.

Wow! I can't tell you how much I appreciate your help.
Wishing you the best of health,
M.

Thanks, JS, for more great ideas! I haven't tried Paul's recipes yet (I've been down with the second of 2 bad colds in a row; I'm hoping that our new way of eating will improve that!). But I did make deviled eggs for the afternoon "meal" today and they were very well-received. Also stocked up on various grass-fed meats at Whole Foods, and I'm looking forward to having a fridge full of great options. (Any good ideas for buying grass-fed at lower prices than WF?)

BTW, I'm trying your Paleo Scramble tonight.

Great website. Thank you!!

You actually make it seem really easy with your presentation however I to find this topic to be actually something
which I think I'd by no means understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely vast for me.
I am taking a look forward for your subsequent submit,
I will attempt to get the hold of it!

I like Geologia amador.
I also try to learn Espanhol in my free time.
