In reply to Pam.

Hi Pam, I am glad that you are liking our recipes. I will warn you that newer ones are better than older, but you can't go wrong when a recipe is based on Julia Child, like this one :) I'm going to look up that Japanese dish too.

We started out on MAD and found that it helped, but moved toward higher ratios because Nora just kept getting better with it. Leave options open for yourself, and most of all be kind and easy on yourself. It's a hard road for a parent and you have to be able to reserve some energy because it is a marathon, not a sprint.

Now that Nora is 2+ years seizure free we are almost back to MAD. I will probably be posting more MAD-specific recipes again soon. I encourage you to try the granola, and feel free to cut back on the coconut oil and macadamia nuts to reduce the ratio if you like, because you don't need 2:1 for MAD unless you are pairing it with very low-fat yogurt/milk or lots of fruit. I did that for Nora's last week because she eats it with full fat greek yogurt (1.25:1 ratio already) and it's still great!
