Cauliflower wings

Sooo.. Roasted cauliflower with buffalo sauce slathered on it. I'm not opposed to it..... as a side dish to steak.

Lets just call a spade a spade here.
 
I do be liking roasted cauliflower.

Cauliflower + EVOO + Jamaican jerk or Cajun seasoning + Parmesan cheese... roasted for about 35 minutes or so at 375 degrees.

Cheers, man.

It's a struggle sometimes trying to find friendly foods that still scrath that itch to cheat a little.


I'm lucky that I'm on two monthly infusions and that has calmed it right down currently. Even a flare generally is mild compared to where it used to be 4 or so years ago and I could be written off for 12-14 days at a time ...

If you don't mind me asking, what medication are you on? I just started a biosimilar to Stelara and it's worked pretty decently so far. I've only had the loading dose. Due for self injections every 8 weeks.

Have you noticed a change in your trigger foods since being on your med?

lol, I absolutely loath mushrooms in general. But... I did say I'm down with what you posted... I just wouldn't call them wings lol.

KINDA GROSS READ BELOW NOT ABOUT CAULIFLOWER OR WINGS.

It's a biological under a few names. Remicade, Infleximab or Inflectra are the ones I remember, depends where the NHS (UK) sourced it from . There's another med I take it with, Azathioprine , that's several tablets daily for that.

I kept a food diary after my second attack because I knew it wasn't normal food poisoning and could never find anything as an issue, allergy tests showed up a possible allergy to lamb which is kind of funny as I hate it as a meat and last ate it about 25 years ago.

I might have eaten something and had an attack and thought ' aha!' and then eaten it again and had no further issue with the same food ...

I would have a full attack maybe every 5 or 6 months over a few years.

There doesn't seem to be any correlation between diet and attacks for me. What does seem to trigger it and the IBD nurse I speak to regularly agrees is stress .

I'm lucky in that it doesn't seem to affect me too badly currently although you know there's probably a colostomy bag and the suchlike looming in the future at some stage.

I eat normally, I don't avoid dairy etc but , as I said, the trigger for me is stress it seems, last time I had an attack ( and it was mild , despite the stomach cramps and the awful stinking diarrhea) was last year , my wife and I went on holiday and she was ill before we went and shouldn't have gone , we got home and 2 days later she was hospitalised and a day or two later I had a flare , it only lasted a couple of days rather than 10-12 days, so , much more controlled than previously and I was only using the toilet about 3 or 4 times a day and the stomach cramps were milder and I didn't have to sprint to the toilet unlike previous flares .

It's interesting how you can feel that it's an attack, in my case it's severe cramps with maybe 30 seconds to get to a toilet, diarrhea that has an awful smell to it and immodium/ loperamide does nothing to help . Not like normal food poisoning.

Kind of amusing that I carry a card that says that " can't wait , need a toilet" and by the time the person who is reading it and has reacted it's probably too late ...

Although I eat quite normally I do have to stay out of the sun , factor 50 and I tend to wear a tee shirt even in weather where the only thing other guys are wearing is a Speedo and sun lotion ... that's probably a good thing all around TBF....

I'm rather lucky on how it is not currently too severe...

Yeah, man, I know exactly what you're talking about with stress, the cramps, and the rest of it. I had 2 flare ups within about 2 months and it sparked my med change. I thought the exact same thing about the food. Just don't eat it again. Had days where I couldn't get out of bed because of the cramps and had to miss work.


My brother has UC as well and remicade put him into remission, so he's on maintenance doses. I hope you get to that point, too. I'm so glad you're doing well at the moment and I hope you continue to do so and I appreciate you sharing all of that with me.
 
Not terrible but not as good as real wings .


But at places like BW3 they are better thsn the awful boneeless wings. Depends on the boneless wing qaulity .

CF wings are a decent snack with right sauce
 
Don't think I've ever tried boneless wings, and yeah, of course not as good as chicken

And to all the fucking mongs, we know they're not actually wings, it's just what they're referred to as, you fucking morons

A bit like how electric cars are still called cars even though they are made purely for pdf files to prowl on children in silence
