I have decided to be dairy free for exactly one month from the first post to see if it helps with my breakouts. (Check out the previous post for more information)
Until June 17th I will not or will try not to consume any dairy.

Since I have only been dairy free for two days, there is no major changes to my skin.
Food wise- I had a bit of a problem thinking up food that i could eat that does not contain dairy that was available in the house.
However I was craving pancakes all day before and there was one banana that was started to get brown spots, so I decided to make pancakes. I took my favorite recipe and made it dairy free ...then took it a step further and made it Vegan (basically just eliminated the 1 egg).

(Banana Raisin) Pancakes
1 1/4 cups of flour
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 1/4 cup of water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon of oil (vegetable or olive)
1 or 2 bananas (mashed up) OPTIONAL
1/2 to 1 cup of raisins OPTIONAL

Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
In another bowl mix together water, oil, vanilla, and bananas.
Pour the banana mixture into the dry mixture and stir. It will be a bit lumpy but that's the way it needs to be.
Stir in the raisins.

On the stove top heat a frying pan and pour some veg/olive oil into it.
Use a large spoon to scoop some of the pancake mixture into the pan to make a couple of small pancakes.
Cook them on each use until light brown.

Tips:

• Make sure you cook the pancakes on Medium or low heat. High heat will cause them to burn on the outside and the inside to remain raw.
• To help you mash up the banana. Put it in a zip-lock bag and mash it up with your hands. Then cut a bottom triangle out and squeeze the mashed up banana out.
• I sometimes like to sprinkle my pancakes with a sugar-cinnamon mix (equal amounts of sugar & cinnamon)

I usually like my pancakes with milk... but i discovered yesterday they go absolutely great with a cup of black tea :)
