I make this side dish all the time. It goes well with so many main dishes. It’s easy too. Just throw some rice and herbs in a pot with broth and you got it. Herbs are a very important part of cooking for IBS and Fructose Malabsorption. I suggest you get to know herbs very well. They impart so much wonderful flavor without upsetting our delicate tummies. My favorites are rosemary, thyme, basil and oregano. Otherwise, have fun experimenting with herbs. I like to use Italian herb seasoning, which is blend of the herbs I listed above. Buy it in bulk, it’s so cheap!
