Corn and Rice Allergies


Today is a good day. I just returned from the allergist with Luna. They did some retests and turns out she is no longer allergist to corn and rice. This is great because we eat a lot of rice in our house and Luna loves rice. Also Luna loves corn on the cob. Just yesterday we were at the supermarket and she saw some and asked for it (I had to say no). But now I will happily cook that tonight! In addition, I no longer have to pick out the corn from the bag of mixed frozen vegtables that we use when we make our chicken, potatoes and rice dish!
It is a very easy and common dish in our home. All you do is throw chicken (we love chicken thighs with the bone) potatoes, vegtables (if using frozen vegtables you might want to wait a 1/2 to add them.), 1 chopped onion, 2-3 chopped tomatoes, garlic, adobo seasoning and sazon seasoning in a pot and cook till chicken is done. Serve over rice.
More good news, she didn't test positive for peanuts. Yeah for Luna! She will do a challenge in the office in about 6 months. Hopefully she isn't allergic to peanuts anymore. (unfortunetly she did test very allergic to almost every tree nut)
