Personal EEN Recipe

Having not been very impressed with the current Exclusive Enteral Nutrition shakes available out there, I decided to create my own recipe using one of the cleanest brands I could find as a basis. I wanted to match the nutrition content as closely as possible and then also figure out what would be my ideal …

Six Months Zero Carb Diet Update

Just a quick update on labs for the zero-carb diet journey that I began officially on April 16, 2022. This was after a colonoscopy that sent my inflammation skyrocketing. Here are my lab work updates:

LEAP Now & Then

Comparison of 2017 to 2021 results. Overall, I am far less reactive to almost everything which shows how far I have come with regard to taming the inflammation. 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021 07/27/2017 11/13/2021

Split Pea Soup

Red Lentil Muffins

I believe this recipe can be adjusted to make sandwich rolls and donuts and will update accordingly in the future. When I originally baked these, I had a crowded oven and adjusted the temperature to 365F for 18 minutes. Take that into consideration when you are checking on the doneness for these.

Farmer’s Cheese Soufflé

Banana Panna Cotta

I suddenly keep finding myself with way too many bananas ripe at the same time. So, I wanted a somewhat healthy snack that is easy to make and fast. I was able to come up with this panna cotta recipe to suit my personal needs and without adding too much fat to the nutritional value. …

N’Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Dough (Lentil)

I wanted to create a snack that was both healthy and indulgent. The result is a not-overly-sweet edible cookie dough with protein and fiber benefits added from the red lentil base and reduced fat content from avoiding nut flours. The spices, extract flavor, and mix-ins can all be swapped out to create other flavors, but …

Sage Raisin Chicken Meatballs

These chicken meatballs (right side of the image above) are going to pair well with an earthy, salty sauce. I personally wouldn't add them to a tomato-based sauce. I think they could even do well with an alfredo-inspired sauce. I did not take structured notes for the sauce I made, but I basically just blended …

Asian Beef Balls

I was able to write down an accurate recipe for the meatballs, but the sauce and rest of the meal was from the heart (aka no notes). Here's some of the details for those comfortable without recipes: 3 diced bell peppers (red, orange, and yellow), 1 bag of bok choy, chopped ginger root, diced shallots, …
