BREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have searched long and hard for a choice to replace bread in our household. As most of you know, my daughter Kate has severe skin issues and with the removal of grains, we have been able to control her breakouts and her pain and discomfort. However, it can be a battle, especially with other kids in the house that don't have such issues, to keep the grains and dairy items out of the pantry without some very dissappointed people. I am SO SO SO SO happy to be able to present this recipe on the blog.
Now, please keep in mind, just like all the other heavy nut based recipes, these are for a sometimes treat, definitely not an everyday choice**

Thanks to cookingcaveman.com for this recipe it he spent 2 years perfecting this thing and I think he did a great job!!!

INGREDIENTS:
4 or 5  eggs (depending on the size)
1 1/2 cups  almond butter
1 1/2 tablespoons  lemon juice  (I use fresh squeezed, clean or preservatives and better tasting)
3/4 teaspoon of baking soda 

Mix everything together pour in a bread pan and bake at 350 for 30-60 min, or until the knife comes out clean. Eat it hot or cooled. Our 1st sandwich was steak strips, paleo mayo, mustard, lettuce tomato
GREAT texture, and stability, so good!!!!!!














** as quoted from LIVESTRONG website:

Medication Interactions

Almonds are quite high in manganese. Each 1 oz. serving provides you with 0.6 mg of this mineral. Under normal circumstances, this is a good thing -- you need 1.8 to 2.3 mg per day to help your body function properly. If you consume a lot of almonds, particularly on top of a manganese-rich diet, this might trigger drug interactions. High quantities of manganese in your blood can interfere with some antipsychotic drugs, as well as antacids, laxatives, blood pressure medications and certain antibiotics.

Vitamin E Overdose

Including almonds in your diet provides you with vitamin E, which offers antioxidant protection. You get 7.4 mg of vitamin E per ounce of nuts, roughly half the amount you need each day. It takes a lot of almonds to rise above the tolerable upper limit of 1,000 mg per day, but it is possible, especially if you eat a diet rich in vitamin E foods, such as eggs, fortified cereals, spinach and whole grains. Too much vitamin E in your body can trigger an overdose situation, causing lethargy, blurred vision, headaches, diarrhea and flatulence.
