I did not eat that for the fatty liver. I ate it to try to use up things
that I had in the house. I am trying to eat more onions and celery. I did
not get the onion and celery thing from a website. Both of those are good
for a fatty liver as are a lot of other fruits of vegetables but some of
those are things I can not or will not eat. Such as asparagus and Brusell
sprouts. No how, no way on those things. The recipe actually was pretty low
calorie though, as I didn't eat very much of it.
