FSD = Fat Smash Diet. Originally posted on http://www.FatSmashForum.com recipes forum by jenniam. From her notes: I left out the peanuts and used a little toasted sesame oil instead of peanut oil............it was very good and could be used in phase II with some chicken, but I have to say that I really did enjoy it with the tofu The brown rice in this dish is nuttier-tasting and better for you than white. Long-grain brown rice tends to be a little milder than short-grain, but whichever you use, be sure to start this recipe using cold cooked rice.
