As a good little FMer, I was determined to have what my family was having for dinner - broiled beef strips and tempura veggies! I looked up a gluten-free tempura batter recipe and we lightly browned my beef strips in butter with garlic cloves (slightly pressed/crushed for flavor) with a little salt and pepper added, and then we broiled them (is your mouth watering, yet?). The tempura came out darker than the regular wheat flour version but it was a nice substitute. I dipped both my beef and veggies in my wheat-free soy sauce and enjoyed a wonderful dinner! That was then. This is now.
I was ready to leave the house 30-minutes early for work, due to the icy roads, when dinner hit me. I made three trips to the bathroom, costing me 20 minutes and causing a lot of discomfort. Damn! Who'd have thought a couple of carrot slices, small broccoli florets, and green beans would do that? I took an Immodium AD tablet at work, just in case the reaction isn't over AND because I brought the leftovers for lunch.
Here's to a fructose-free Christmas dinner to you and yours and better research and information about FM in the coming year. Yeah, I'll probably post that again on New Year's Eve. :-)
