Oh, i hate missing people like that. We didn't take the I15 though we went to Vegas via Death Valley and Beatty Nevada and then went across the Hoover Dam and headed to the Grand Canyon. We spent the night in a motel in Williams and then came back the same way to Vegas.
I so loved Vegas- we stayed at the MGM and I got to see Tom Jones live!
Sorry I missed the opportunity to meet you Maybe next time??

Sorry I missed the opportunity to meet you Maybe next time?? Oh I'm so sorry too..Who wouldn't love Vegas? It's got everything! I hope, at some point in time, we get to meet you and all the rest of the gang you had dinner with in NY.......Rob, that was in Vegas with us is from NY and he was in Vegas (or somewhere like that) on business when you all were living it up, otherwise he would have joined you too! BTW, A big congratulations on your engagement!!!

Something tells me this has nothing at all to do with recipes..LOL

I halved all of the ingredients EXCEPT the lemon zest and it came out so bitter we couldn't eat it. Most dispiriting after all that cooking!

Smelt and tasted yummy up until I added the zest tho. Maybe next time.

I keep on getting put off...ages ago I made a EFI recipe that had the wrong amount of fish sauce in it and that was GROSS. Haven't tried it since.

Linz, may I ask WHY you didn't half the amount of zest too? If you got any of the white part of the lemon (the pith) in with the zest that too will cause it to taste bitter.

Smelt and tasted yummy up until I added the zest tho. Maybe next time. Oh don't give up on it, really. It's great. One thing I've learned, the hard way, about spices and zests, is to go easy at first. You can always add more at the end after you've tasted it. I don't think I added the full amount of zest in this recipe since my lemon wasn't quite firm enough to get the entire amount of zest called for.

Fish sauce is another tricky item. Better to use less to start.

The other evening I made a Jambalaya using a traditional recipe but making it IBS safe. The recipe called for 3 TABLESPOONS of Cajun spice. I only added 1/2 TEASPOON and it turned out plenty spicey for our tastes. I hate to think about what it would have been like if I'd used the full amount called for. Kandee

I hope you give it a try again... it really is tasty! Also Linz... I use bottled lemon juice instead of lemon zest. I've done both, but prefer the juice instead. Just an idea!

I was just being dippy. And I think there was lots of pith in there too...I didn't know that was what made it bitter!

Yep, it does. When I make Limoncello I have to peel the zest (yellow part) off in thin strips, being careful not to have any of the white. My rule is that if I can't see thru it, I don't use it.

I like Rachel's idea to use the juice if you don't have fresh lemons. I suppose, in a pinch, you could use the bottled peel from the spice section.

Speaking of lemons, if citrus is not a trigger for someone (it is for me) wouldn't a lemon meringue pie be IBS safe if you make the crust low fat?

I never thought about lemon meringue pie! Yum. I just checked, and a lot of recipe call for egg yolks. But I found one that doesn't! I think I'd skip the phyllo dough and just make a LF pie crust, but otherwise it looks yummy. Check this out:

Lemon Meringue pie

CRUST:
4 sheets phyllo dough

LEMON FILLING:
1 1/2 cups water
6 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 cup egg-white or fat free substitute (it works well)
2 Tbsp grated lemon rind

MERINGUE:
6 egg whites
pinch of cream of tartar
2 Tbsp honey

CRUST: Drape one sheet of dough across 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Press into
plate; fold overhanging edges toward center, crumpling to fit. Coat the top
with a misting of non-stick spray, repeat with rest of dough. Bake at 375
for 5-7 minutes, or until golden. Let cool on rack.

FILLING

In 2 qt saucepan, whisk together water and cornstarch until starch is dissolved.
Whisk in honey and lemon juice. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring
constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and runs clear. Remove from heat
and slowly whisk in egg substitute. Return to heat, and cook, stirring, until
thickened. Add lemon rind. Set aside to cool to room temp.

MERINGUE

Place egg whites in a large bowl; beat until foamy. Add cream of tartar; continue beating until soft peaks form. Drizzle in honey and beat until stiff but not dry.

Spread meringue over pie so that it covers the filling and touches crust on all sides. Make small swirls on merigue with back of spoon. Broil about 6 inches from heat until lightly browned; don't let it burn. Serve at room temperature.
