A Two-Week Real Food Dairy-Free Meal Plan 5

A Two-Week Real Food Dairy-Free Meal Plan

I have now nursed three babies. (By the grace of God, by the way … it never came easily to me!) And do you know that for EACH baby, I had to take dairy out of my diet for one reason or another?

I’m sort of a resident “allergy” expert, because my oldest son has severe food allergies to milk, peanut, and egg. And you would not BELIEVE the number of times that a nursing mom has e-mailed, called or texted me – desperate, crying, at the end of her rope, sleepless, oh, and HUNGRY! She’s decided to eliminate dairy from her diet and has absolutely no clue what to eat!

Of course, the challenge becomes infinitely more difficult if you eat real food. You can subsist on Oreos, Poptarts, and frozen chicken nuggets for so long if need-be (yes, they’re all dairy-free … scary, huh?). But if you’re saying farewell to yogurt, cheese, and milk for one reason or another, it can be very difficult to find nourishing replacements.

Relax! I am here to help. If you are going dairy-free on a real-food diet, here is a play-by-play of what you can safely eat. And how you can not starve! If you have other suggestions, please comment below!

  1. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!! I have been dairy free for 7 months because it tortures my nursing 1 year old. I am so out of ideas and at my wits end, tired of the same old things every day. I want to hug you!

  2. This list looks yummy! A decade ago my oldest so (then about 7) developed a milk allergy. I remember standing in the isle at the grocery store with a little wallet sized card that listed all of the ingredients that were really milk and crying. I think it took me about 4 hours to do the first shopping trip.
    I would have killed for a plan like this back then. What a great resource!

  3. On your grilled chicken flat bread with salsa, you put feta cheese on them and didn’t disclose fata, is dairy.

    1. Hi Rena! Thanks so much for pointing this out!! I updated the recipe and disclosed that feta was dairy (and made a note to avoid for those omitting dairy). Thanks again for the comment!

  4. OMG thank you so much for this comprehensive list. I am researching for a dairy free meal plan and came across yours. It is truly tiring to make a shopping list and think of what to make for dairy free diet. This is so helpful! Thank you!

  5. I just want to note that some canned tuna has dairy protein in it, as well as the breading in some chicken nuggets.

    Whole wheat bread – watch for hidden dairy proteins. It’s also wise to find out if the pan that the bread is baked in is coated in butter first.

    These protein can cause the worst bad bacteria overgrowth resulting in damaged intestines. I’m still trying to correct mine!
