Housecat, if you are still "doing" the Whole 30, I found a wonderful blog by Taylor Kaiser. I am not doing the "Whole 30", but I glean recipes that fit my philosophy from all over-vegan, paleo etc....if you are running dry on ideas, maybe this will help!

We're you ever able to determine as to whether or not a particular food triggered the migraines?

Have a happy and healthy New Year....and I'm in love with Lock and Lock.....so many uses....

Hi, Poodlepet.

I did the Whole 30 for two months last fall.  It was really hard for me, because I'm not accustomed to eating meat at EVERY meal. I lost about 10 lbs. when all was said and done, I had determined a couple of trigger foods - nuts, bananas, chocolate, among the worst offenders.  I went for allergy testing and saw a nutritionist.  The nutritionist said there is nothing wrong with the Whole 30, but she didn't recommend it as a permanant diet. Still, it taught me a lot about the hidden "ingredients" in our food and I've been careful to avoid any overly processed foods and to pay close attention to the additives.

Housecat, I'm glad you discovered some triggers....I have never suffered from migraines but have known many people who were incapacitated by them. I'm glad it wasn't for nothing.

Are you enjoying the rain?  I hope you and yours are out of the way from mud slides

Hugs,

RAIN IS MY FAVORITE WEATHER!

I'm not kidding - can't have enough of it, in my opinion. It has rained several times since I've been on winter break from school and Monday, the morning classes resume is to be the wettest so far. When it rains here, the kids get so excited they run around in it between classes and brunch and lunch, then shiver through their classes.  It's pretty funny, actually.
