Eggs, nuts, and meat that she likes, got it.  She does seem to enjoy
a good bit of hamburger when it's mixed with other things.  We can
probably focus on that.  She loves stew, so do I.

We bought a deep freezer and a side of grass-fed beef last year.  Good
stuff.  She didn't seem to like it any better or worse.

Thanks for the response, I'll print it and pass it on - maybe it'll
make her feel a little more like she can do it.
