Ruts are practically normal when it comes to dieting. Long term diets are mostly the ones more prone to ruts. A gluten free diet can be prone to ruts too especially in its case where there are so many limitations.
A gluten free diet starts with experimenting, exploring and distinguishing what better gluten free options to take. Soon the body adapts to the diet but after some time the body gets tired of the same gluten free routine and begins to crave new things. How to get out of the rut is something that needs to developed.
Playing around with colors when prepraing your gluten free meals would help eliminate the rut. Make certain changes like replacing white flour with either brown, golden or yellow. No matter what color you pick, this new gluten free approach would surely make a bit of difference. Also try out whole gluten free grains that have high nutrient contents in them. There are products used for baking and cooking that combine flours and colored grains. Use them to make your own gluten free recipes. If you’ve been regularly eating the same gluten free pasta made of rice flour, it’s a good idea to shift to something else like those made of buckwheat or bean flours.
Also when you get tired of eating the same kind of gluten free bread and gluten free cookies you will know that it’s now time to try out new recipes from a gluten free cookbook. A new gluten free repast is equally a new discovery for the taste buds.. Get used to it and as the time comes when rut is again experienced, just shift back to the old routine. For sure the body would take it as a new eating adventure and will be able to adapt easily.
