NOatmeal- (AIP, GAPS, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, SCD, Egg Free)

If you have egg intolerances and are trying to heal your gut by going grain-free, breakfasts can be hard. I usually recommend a nice turkey, kale, and rutabaga hash but if you are needing to switch things up, here is a great oatmeal alternative.

NOatmeal, yes oatmeal without the oats is a tasty option. You can swap out higher carbohydrates oats with this nourishing and nutrient-dense porridge made of spaghetti squash, coconut, apples, cinnamon, and banana. Spaghetti squash provides a significant amount of fiber, vitamin C, manganese, and vitamin B6. Eating lower carbohydrates can help starve opportunistic bacteria in your gut that contributes to acne.

In general, grains (even gluten-free) like oats and rice are more difficult to digest and contribute to skin and mood issues. When you are needing to avoid grains to heal your leaky gut and reverse your food intolerances you can still enjoy meals that are similar to what the rest of the world eats. This can make you feel emotionally more at ease and less deprived, while also still physically improving your mood and skin issues.
