This sounds amazing, are any of these starches allowed on the challenge? If so than this is my first recipe post that I will be trying THIS weekend!
Ashley, I don’t know about the starches but I do know that for the challenge bacon is supposed to be nitrate-free and sugar-free, which, if you can find it in new york, PLEASE TELL ME WHERE.
Arrowroot and tapioca powder are allowed. Potato starch is not.
Make sure you use coconut milk. The full fat stuff from a can.
Here’s a handy list of controversial items:

As for bacon, be absolutely certain it is SUGAR AND NITRATE free. And if you find some, please tell me where you found it! I’ve only been able to find nitrate free locally (and I berated the majority of pork purveyors at most of the local farmers markets). Of course, there is always the option of buying this in bulk (their minimum shipping requirement is 7 lbs):

I’ll buy in for good bacon. Damn my lack of bacon knowledge, I had fleisher’s this week and had no Idea that sugar was used in the process :(. Day three and there goes my perfect week. !
Keep up the good work. Bacon got me last time but stay strong you can do it.
Yeah, keep going Ashley! It’s a small slip up.
Ashley we have some sugar free/nitrate free bacon from US Wellness Meats you can try. I didn’t care for the way it cooked. It’s thicker than normal and we prefer the frying pan to baking. Actually we have 2 frozen packages if anyone else wants to try it.
Jennifer–You bought some?! I’d love to try it! I’ll buy it off of you!
I’d buy one if you have two!
Don’t be silly, it’s just going to sit in my freezer, I don’t need any money. We are pretty close to the box at 19th and 4th if you want to swing by after a workout. Just email me @ jenniferona080808@yahoo.com when you are around.
I’m just reading this reply now, I totally just bought some with a few friends to make up the 7 lbs for a proper order. We’re going to give it a go. Katie, and Tina; let me know what you think once you try it!
It’s ok! It’s a learning process. 🙂
I don’t eat pork, but I was in union market last night and it looks like one of the applegate naturals uncured bacon packs is nitrate and sugar free. They had several types, I think the Sunday bacon had sugar – the others seemed fine.
Good to know Shara. I will double check the label. Sometimes sugar sneaks its way in–that trickster.
conjugates: i know why my hamstrings hurt, but the ache in my rhomboids is a mystery.
What did you do for Rhomboids? Was it the dimmel deadlifts?
can’t think of anything else. must be doing em wrong.
Is it sore or painful? The rhomboids must be active. Just as in a regular deadlift.
just mild DOMS, nothing bad.
In a month, Andrea and I will be competing at Mayhem at the Meadowlands in NJ on Saturday May 3rd…just in case anyone wanted to come out and cheer our 3 women team on!
I know there will be spectator tickets available but they haven’t released the info yet. Mark your calendars!

It’s going to be fun. Can’t wait to see you girls crush it.
That sounds fun. Post again when the info becomes available.
Will do Jen!
