the nikson diet

Ever since we found out Nikson has massive food allergies, our refrigerator has been stocked a little differently than normal. I am still breastfeeding the wee one so i have to be pretty careful and have had to change a lot of what we eat.

here is an example of a normal day in the bishop home.
BREAKFAST:
2 of Van's frozen wheat free, dairy free, egg free waffle.
a turkey sausage patty
SNACK:
hummus and sliced veggies
Rice crackers
LUNCH:
Turkey Sandwich, no cheese, no mayo, stocked with veggies and Rudy's Gluten Free Bread Slices
Rice Tortilla Chips (baked at home) and Salsa
SNACK:
Cinnamon Chex with Rice Milk (I could eat them all day long)




DINNER:
Chicken and Sun Dried Tomatoes with Brown Rice Pasta
Salad
Dessert:
another bowl of Cinnamon Chex:)

Blake has been really awesome about eating what is being cooked. Sometimes the meal is easy to substitute in Nikson friendly foods that we just make it and do so. I feel really good and healthy, but more importantly, he isn't itching himself to tears and hasn't broken out in a massive, painful rash. Thank heavens! Sometimes we just have to make the right kind of sacrifices. He is worth it though.
