Oh hello there. You’ve found some very old content. Please read the disclaimer on this page before thinking I’m still a total sheep who has been sucked into a bone-broth worshipping fad diet. Been there, learned from that and am now a much less rigid human.
Let’s be honest, GAPS may be just what the doctor nutritionist ordered, but it’s not without it’s drawbacks, challenges and isolating guidelines.
Here’s a few truths that only those living the GAPS life will truly understand.
This Smoothie is made on a base of homemade Kultured Wellness coconut yoghurt. I am a sucker for shop bought coconut yoghurts, but it sure is cheaper to purchase the starter culture and make your own from scratch. Do I always make my own? No. Honestly, I still prefer the taste and consistency of a good Coyo (or equivalent), but when I’m feeling thrifty, the homemade variety does the job.
You may remember this post where I shared that my healing (for lack of a better word) “journey” is changing directions. If not, you might like to go back and have a read.

I know in my last post I said that my next post would be ‘a day on my plate’ post to show my more varied, non-soup GAPS meals, however there’s been a slight change of plans.
Kirsty from Kultured Wellness thinks she might have an answer to my last few niggling health concerns.

It’s been since this post that I’ve done a GAPS update and I figured it was time for another one.
I’m half on full-GAPS, half stuck between stage 5/6.
GAPS Status: It’s complicated.
Do you ever set out to make a basic recipe, only to be overwhelmed by an intuitive plea to modify the recipe to such an extent that you manifest an entirely original product?
I was just going to do a basic date, cashew and cacao wafer bliss ball recipe, but then I saw all the other ingredients in the pantry and completely changed my mind.
I personally love banana pancakes or pumpkin pancakes on those occasions where I want to relive my childhood where ‘breakfast for dinner’ was a regular occurrence. I actually enjoy the aforementioned recipes more than the ‘glutenated’ (a word which here means; “containing gluten”) pancakes I devoured in my youth … That said, Mamma T doesn’t isn’t quite ready for fruit and veggie-based flapjacks … she wants ‘normal’ pancakes. Sighs.
Last night I had the pleasure of cooking dinner for my mum and stepdad. Usually I cook GAPS food for myself and mum cooks what she calls ‘regular food’ for everyone else dining at our place that night. I miss cooking some of my old favourites, such as a simple chicken curry with steamed Jasmine rice. I always jump at the chance to cook a meal for the rest of the family.
No rant today.
Behold potassium-rich, gut-loving, bowel-cleansing heaven in a glass. This is one of my favourite summer treats.
