Given my background as a mom with two kids with this deficiency, as a well as a board certified family physician, my goal is to make lipoprotein lipase deficiency / Fredrickson's type I hyperlipidemia / Buerger-Gruetz syndrome more understandable and liveable for other families.

Better fruit tart
Monica declared this her favorite dessert ever!
I pounded up 3 graham crackers, added 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, and pressed it rather haphazardly in a tart pan. I baked it at 325 F for maybe 10-15 min to give it a bit of crunch, but it still crumbled all over when I served it. But for once, it was tastey!
I made a package of lemon Jello Pudding mix with skim milk and poured it on top of the cooled crust. Topped with berries (Monica did that part, actually), and I recommended warming up some jelly (apricot is a classic to use), and brushing it on top of the fruit to help it maintain its juiciness and shine.
Everyone loved it, LPL or not! I couldn't cut a clean, nice looking piece, but it didn't matter, it was still delicious.
