I was taking Nexium (the little purple pill - which is actually a capsule)
after my escape from the bleeding ulcers. I don't know that it helped prevent
anything. But, they gave me IV Nexium to heal the ulcers along with the blood
to replace what had been processed through my digestive system. So, I dutifully
took the capsules as directed ... until the script ran out. 

The incident with the Jamaican Beef Patties was the first case of any sort of
gastric distress I've had in some time ... certainly the only one since I got
out of hospital from the ulcers. I've come to the conclusion that the problem
was caused by something in the patties from Sam's Club. I ate Jamaican Beef
Patties at a Nigerian friend's home last week and had no problems with them -
they were somewhat hotter in spicing than the Sam's Club version. But, made in
the home with non-food service spices and stretchers.

      Title: Nigerian One-Pot Chicken Dinner
 Categories: Poultry, Rice, Casseroles, Chilies
      Yield: 6 servings
 
      1 lg Chicken; quartered or in
           - serving pieces
      2 c  Water
      1 lg Onion; thin sliced
      1    Rib celery; in 1" chunks
      1 ts Salt
    1/8 ts Crushed dried red chilies
      2    Tomatoes
      1 lg Green bell pepper; sliced
      1 tb Lemon juice
      1 tb Tomato paste
    1/2 ts Chilli mix powder
     10 oz Pkg frozen okra
      2 c  Cooked rice

  In a large pot or Dutch oven place chicken, water, onion,
  celery, salt and crushed chilies. Cover and cook over
  moderately high heat until it comes to a boil, reduce heat
  to moderately low and simmer 30 minutes.

  While chicken is cooking, put tomatoes in a pan of boiling
  water for 1/2 min. Spoon tomatoes out of the water and remove
  skin. Cut into eighths.

  Add tomatoes, green pepper, lemon juice, tomato paste, and
  chilli mix to chicken. 

  Continue cooking for 10 minutes. Add okra to pot, cover
  and cook another 15 minutes. Stirring once or twice. Spoon
  rice into soup bowls and top with chicken mixture.

  When making casseroles, I do not put the rice in with every
  thing else if I am going to be freezing or storing. White
  rice can be frozen in the casserole but I find that if I
  use brown rice, it gives everything a distinctly grainy
  flavor that I find disagreeable. So I will put the rice 
  in a plastic Ziploc bag and freeze it with the casserole.
  Then I will heat it separately.
