[QUOTE="nerfherder, post: 589926, member: 15907"] MM, the "Brown Food Diet" is what I call it. :) She was on that, yeah, fried starch, cheese, boiled starch, cheese, and even after we went gluten-free, casein-free I ended up stuck in the expensive and time consuming Fake Food/Lookalike Food Trap. And we weaned Kiddo off it about four, five years ago. Her meals are pretty consistent and consistently healthy, with variation. Breakfast: Multivitamin, tea if she's having a good morning behaviorally, Eggs either scrambled or fried, occasionally an herb/kale or herb/chard omelet, with sausage (I make from scratch) or bacon. Snack: Carrots, not free but in structured format (snack time, reward for chores completed. She really likes carrots. A lot.) Lunch: Salad, mayo (home made) for dressing, animal protein in some form, frequently leftovers. (Today I made mini quiches with bacon, leftover steak bits, and a coconut flour/egg white crust seasoned with salt, garlic powder and Old Bay. They were AWESOME by the way. :) ) Snack: carrots (have I mentioned she loves carrots?) Extra snack for chores or good behavior: carrots (see above.) Dinner: Animal protein of some kind, vegetables if part of dinner, salad with mayo. After dinner: Usually a cup of mint or mint/rose tea (we grow it here in abundance.) Tree or vine fruits very, very rarely, usually once every 4 to 6 weeks. Notably, you would see her slamming it and blame it on the rarity of the occurance - but it isn't any different from how she ate them when she got them daily. She likes the meal routine, but obsesses about foods she can't have - and if she gets appropriately made "look alike" foods, she obsesses on those too. It's really a "d*mned if you do, d*mned if you don't" situation. And a buffet, while a good idea overall, will have too many foods that will screw her up good - and denying those will result in a very loud and messy tantrum. All your input and thoughts are wonderful! Thank you, and I appreciate the opportunity to track-back and consider how things have changed. [/QUOTE]
