TIPS

  • There are 3 phases to the Vegan AIP (Elimination, Reintroduction, Maintenance). 
  • Via my TIPS — I have modified all recipes (other people’s) — to be Vegan, AIP & Elimination Phase compliant. I am eternally grateful for all the AIP forerunners, vegans, and others who are recipe creators.
  • After some time on the Vegan AIP protocol – some realize they have become sensitive to an “AIP Compliant” food. Be aware of any symptoms or triggers you experience when eating different AIP foods.
    • The Vegan AIP protocol is very flexible and experimental! Everyone is different! Get comfortable with experimenting – and find what works for you!
    • Before eliminating the food from your diet – try eating smaller amounts and less often before you eliminate a food.
    • Substituting with other AIP flours:
      • Plantain Flour: 
        • It does not have a “gummy” consistency, like cassava, tapioca, or arrowroot.
        • It is also a great thickener. 
        • It can have a strong smell and taste. I only like it when there are a lot of other flavors, seasonings mixed in. Just Experiment!
      • Green Banana flour AND Tigernut flour. These are also good substitutions to try!
    • Below are the – Most Common AIP Food Sensitivities:
      • Cassava / Yucca, Tapioca, Arrowroot
        • These are all related. Arrowroot tends to be the least reactive. So, first – try substituting it in recipes.
      • Coconut Products
        • Milk – Depending on the recipe, you may omit it altogether, or try substituting it with water and banana, applesauce for dessert recipes, or “Pacific” mushroom broth for savory dishes.
        • Oil – substitute with either avocado or olive oil.
        • Flour – Try substituting another AIP flour. Plantain flour is my favorite!
        • Coconut Aminos – (soy sauce, tamari substitute). Mushroom powder is a great “Umami” substitute (online, Asian grocery store, or homemade with pulverized ground mushrooms)
      • Nutritional Yeast
        Use         onion, garlic, and mushroom powder and other herbs and seasonings – as substitutes.
      • Agar Agar
        Try using cooked plantain, plantain flour, other AIP flours, banana, apple sauce, pumpkin puree, or other starchy cooked, mashed vegetables (rutabaga, turnips, carrots, etc.) – for thickeners, depending on the recipe.
