Addie Aline's Journal, 09 October 2015

I'm having some problems with my mouth and need to be on fairly soft foods so I'm open to all suggestions for LCHF it's going to be kinda tough finding meat you don't need to chew very much. I think salmon might work and I have that in my freezer and the last time I pan fried it it was very good. I will get tired of protein shakes pretty fast because I don't always want something sweet tasting. So help!

If you cook up some ground meats (chicken, pork, beef, turkey) you can create pieces that will be easy for you to manage. Incorporate them in soup, stews, chili. Good way to get plenty of fluids while you eat, too.

Canned tuna with mayo, chicken breast shredded with mayo, talapia baked with butter is very soft, salmon is always yummy...fish is what comes to mind first

I was going to say ground meat also. You can grind any meat you already have OR you can ask your butcher to grind any meat you want in the store. Most places will. I've had been grind roasts for me when they were cheaper than ground beef. You can also stew your meat to soften it up or use your crock pot for cooking.

A nice, flaky fish like cod or flounder; mashed potatoes, rice, chili, steamed veggies, and chowders :)

This is a good month for raw oysters. To eat a raw oyster, just put it on your tongue and whistle backward!!! I'll shuck a few for ya.

a stew with ground beef and cabbage. mmm , broth or bone broth will help.. hope you feel better

Crock pot cooking or long and slow in a 225-250 degree oven wrapped in foil makes meat so tender you don't hardly need to chew it.

Ditto Red...great idea!

I have to disagree with the raw oyster notion. Some oysters are infected with vibrio vulnificus bacteria, which can be fatal. Be careful!

I've been eating them since I was a child. I've never had a problem because we knew the waters they were harvested from. Since I moved here I have had some really great oysters that were shipped from Prince Edward Island. I do, however, appreciate your concern. :) I only mentioned oysters because they require very little chewing. Have a good evening.

Thanks for all your ideas I'll put them to use except the raw oysters my DH loves them raw but I want mine fried. The problem is only temparary hopefully only a few days. I had bratwurst sausage tonight but I can't eat them all the time, they said they were nitrate free but I'm not sure you can always belie what you read.

I agree with you, sometimes I wonder if the nutritional information has been fudged. Especially if I can't get my rings on the next morning. Brats sound really good.

I know where you are coming from. How about taking some cheap cuts of meat and slow cooking them in a crockpot? The smell as it cooks will get your mouth watering and when it is done in 8 or 19 hours, I guarantee that you will be able to enjoy the meat and chew it with ease.

Crock Pot cooking is great, especially in the fall and winter. Years ago, I bought "Fix It and Forget It" a crock pot cookbook. There are some very good recipes listed that don't need 20 ingredients.

any type of organic bone broth.

I wanted to make a good bone broth anyone have a good recipe? I wanted to use ox tail but I guess I'll have to go to a butcher shop to get the ox tail, I read somewhere that it makes a very good broth.

we buy our beef from a rancher...grassfed, so we get the soup bones too. They're packaged up in individual amounts so I get about two to a package. Oxtails would probably be, I dunno, 3 or 4 to a package. So based on that, I just add water and whatever seasonings I like (onion powder, garlic, etc.) and add it to a stew pot of water, about 8 quarts or so...and boil all day at a low continuous just enough to keep it boiling rate. I add more water as needed. I try to let it do this a good 4 hours or more. I'm not the best planner so sometimes, I only get 2 hours boil time. Anyhow, that's how I do it and the broth for our stews and soups turn out really good. I also keep any 'drippings' from any roast I cook and use this instead of processed 'beef bouillon'. Hope this helps.

You're welcome. I hope your mouth heals quickly. I know what it is like, I get them from certain foods. I am basically trying to do fat belly to an autoimmune protocol diet.
