Since I was heading to book club straight from work, I stopped by Stew Leornard's to find some food to bring with me. I found some grilled chicken on the salad bar and a bag of baby carrots - so far, so good. Then I thought "You know what would be delicious? Some of that Guacamole Dip!" Turns out that it was a little naughty since the ingredients did include some nightshades (tomatoes, jalapenos, and chili powder). But I decided to indulge. Well, let me tell you, I got a nice little tummy ache after eating about 1/4 of the guac while dipping my chicken and carrots. It honestly felt like my guts were getting inflamed - maybe the jalapeno was the biggest offender? I do not feel good about the prospect of having issues with nightshades. I've SOOOOO been looking forward to reintroducing them into my diet to give us a little variety. We use paprika, chili powder, fresh peppers, and tomatoes in so many of our favorite dishes. Salsa!!! I'll have to do a little testing after next week.
