Hello,
I currently work 5 days a week durring the day and I need some IBS safe sandwhichs that I can bring into work with my pretzels or totilla chips to eat for lunch. I am currently on a Peanut Butter and Jelly kick on Sourdough bread but I would like some other good ideas that I can start making that are quick to bring with me that taste good and are IBS safe. Any suggestions would be great. 
Thanks
Kristen

i make turkey sandwiches with a little mayo (if you are ok with it) and dejon. i really really like those...and some deli meat of course. i'll also pack peanut butter and banana snadwiches...i loveeee those! haha. yeah, kinda a kid. if i'm feeling ok to do, i'll add lettuce and tomato to the turkey sandwich too (i pack the tomato seperately becuase it'll get all soggy)
those are my most eaten sandwiches. i stick chips on my sandwich too..yes i'm kinda a kid when it comes to sandwiches!! id you check out the recipess for sandwhiches on the recipe exchange posts there are some there too i believe.
hope this helped some!

Tuna fish with light mayo on sourdough is my favorite! You can also experiment with different soy meats and veggie burgers...I like to put some avocado on mine, but some people can't handle it. I have made some pretty kick-ass fakin' bacon BLTs in the past, but that requires some grilling. The easiest is plain turkey, chicken, or soy meat with mustard and maybe some veggies that you can personally tolerate. Hope that helps!

A plain bagel, a bit of mild mustard, turkey and a slice of lettuce and or a tomatoe makes a quick, easy sandwich. You can leave of the IF if it bothers you, but the bagel usually offsets that with SF, so it works for me!

Thanks for the info. I will go to the store in the next couple of nights and get some turkey and light mayo to try.
Always open to new ideas.

I eat turkey sandwhiches on Tortilla Wraps. I also do well with tuna fish with little mayo, but some can not tolerate mayo so it may be a trial and error game.

Turkey on white. Lettuce and tomato if you can handle it. Mustard or barbecue sauce - my personal favorite! Chicken breast is another good deli meat. If you go with the pre-sliced packaged stuff, you'll also be able to find turkey ham.
Tuna or chicken salad, made with lite or ff mayo.
If you can do the lettuce and tomato, you can also have a BLT made with turkey bacon and lite mayo.
If you like egg salad, egg salad can be made with just the egg whites, and add a squirt of mustard in with the mayo... you'd be surprised how good it is.
Personally, one of my favorite lunches isn't a sandwich at all. I make up a batch of tuna salad (or chicken salad) and stir in cold cooked pasta and peas. Season it up, shake some soy parmesan on top... yum!
Be careful with the PB&J, though... too much peanut butter is a bad thing for IBS'ers, generally speaking, because of the fat content.

One of the best sandwiches I've EVER had in my life was at this cute little cafe in NY. It was a GardenBurger topped with fresh spinach, sauteed mushrooms, sprouts, thin slices of avocado, and hummus, on a toasted bulkie roll. It was so heavenly that even my little brother, who thinks vegetarian food is mostly evil, thought it was incredible.
Not something you could take in your lunch, really, but I had to mention it anyway!
On the other hand, I think you could leave off the Garden Burger and still have a really good cold sandwich. Hmm... methinks I'll have to try that!

Since no one has mentioned it yet....smoked fish (trout, tuna, salmon) on a pumpernickel bagel. You can get fancy and add capers or lemon zest or some veggies, but I like it plain. Heather has a couple of recipes in EFI.

I get them from the fabulous New York Bagel and Bialy in Lincolnwood. They distribute to a bunch of different places (like Treasure Island), so you may want to ask around at local delis and grocery stores to see if you can get one. All my and my DH's relatives stock up when they visit Chicago!
Rye is pretty well-tolerated, and this bagel isn't real seedy/grainy. I know Heather talks about rye and pumpernickel in EFI, so you might want to check there for sure. She's the one who recommended a smoked trout on pumpernickel bagel...

here are the ingredients in a basic pumpernickel:
3/4 cup water -- plus 3 tablespoons
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons cornmeal
2 cups bread flour
1/4 cup rye flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon dry milk
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
From my perspective if it is made without the dairy it would be safe... I use potato water instead of the milk to soften breads and oil instead of butter for the preservative quality...

I'd still check around. The folks in Lincolnwood swore that they are not available in Oak Park, yet the Onion Roll deli on North Avenue stocks them!

I pack this almost every day for lunch at work with pretzels and water. (I do no lettuce on mine)I heat it in the microwave a little. Yummmy is right! I usually follow my sandwich with 1 little square of dark chocolate and a cup of peppermint tea

Wow! You're from Chattanooga? That is so cool. Not cool that we have IBS but I was starting to feel like the only one here in town. I'll send you an email.
