1. Sounds good (but still not a big brussel sprouts fan)

and didn't know Truvia made a brown sugar!

3. Yeah they do

I was really happy when I found it.
Got it from Giant. 1 carb a teaspoon. 2 percent sugar and 2 percent added sugar 10 calories..

5. Isn't it amazing how stevia, monkfruit etc so easily take the place of sugar in savory recipes?

[I_UndergroundPanther]

7. Yes

We should have never favored the sugar industry for so many years blocking competition from stuff like stevia especially when these alternatives existed and people tried to sell them but the sugar lobby interfered with these alternatives..

6. I love scallops..

sounds delicious.

Times like these is when new recipes are created. I had a couple of cod fillets that I thawed out and realized I was out of olive oil. So I sautéed them in sesame oil and the fish turned out really good. I served the sesame flavored cod over white rice with soy sauce.

Thanks for sharing your lunch with us.

8. This particular recipe works good on

Fish, chicken and pork.
Just tried it with scallops today first time. What's cool about the few red pepper flakes is the heat comes on very slow so by time you have come near to finishing them the heat comes in leaving spicy sweet heat taste behind.
The vinegar cucumber salad clears the palate perfectly too.
