A Major Issue - LEGUMES

   I have been eluding through out this blog that I've had personal issues along this culinary school journey. At this point I have determined that I have an intolerance to the legume family. Here comes the BIG problem, almost 80-90% of what we do involves legumes of some nature. Since coming to this conclusion a few weeks ago after a few severe bouts of acute belly pain, I have banned legumes from my body. I am so done with them!
   I tried so hard to like them at first such a great alternate source of protein, so many health benefits. But every time I ate them I wound up sick. I am headed East next week for Thanksgiving and have to see a Gastroenterologist for an endoscope to give me a true diagnosis. Regardless of what my test results turn out to be - no more legumes for this future chef!
