I too am an avid masticator, though I think I prefer foods I can slurp.
Aside from masticating, what are your hobbies? How do your issues affect them? Do you have sensory issues as well as your dispraxia?
I occupy my time mostly by reading, watching TV and movies and random videos and playing an online game. And I go someplace for a walk and sometimes a meal most days.
When it comes to reading and watching things, I fairly often have to reread or replay parts because they didn't resister. In gaming my reflexes are slow so I need a game that's easy to play.
With going out for walks I need someone with me so I don't get lost.
I have the usual sensory issues with bright light and noise and fabrics. I'm okay with food flavors but nothing spicy. Texture is usually more of an issue than taste.
