Hi there... I dont have too extensive of a cookbook collection, but did look online and found a couple of sites for veggie won ton soup...
At this site, they recommend a veggie won ton soup with noodles (the gal actually adapted a meat recipe by replacing with tofu...but everything here seems pretty IBS safe, and they use cornstarch and water for the "glue" to hold the won tons together) http://regency.estarcion.com/~mt/gastronome/archives/000777.html
Also, at this site, they have another variation of veggie won ton soup...just click on the "won ton soup" link...it will direct you to refer to the "crispy won tons" link for the won ton manufacturing It seems pretty IBS safe, except you might want to leave the bok choy/ cabbage out since it only boils for 2-3 minutes (or else cook it for a really long time to make it more soluble) http://www.geocities.com/NapaValley/6927/chin.html
And last but not least, this one sounds really good, except for the use of egg in sealing the won tons (I would use the cornstarch and water as recommended in the site above). http://vegetarian.about.com/library/soups/blwontonsoup.htm
And for those of us who would rather not assemble 25 little intricate works of art, (from what I've read on this board, this would be right up Lana Marie's alley - you can just use a can of veggie broth and throw in some low fat veggie pot stickers from Trader Joe's (if they happen to be in your area) and some cut up scallions....This sounds to me just as delish and more suited to my lifestyle...plus I love Trader Joes!!
Bon appetit

Besides the two pasta salads below, try searching for rice salads--I posted at least one for Kerrie awhile back with some suggestions for changes to make it IBS-safe. Good luck!
Sorry about the weird measurements below, this recipe was cut down from a much larger one passed down from the local health food store. Just eye the measurements, it's not an exact science . Depending on your tummy, you could leave out the scallions, sesame seeds, and/or garlic. (I know I can't have sesame seeds.) And be sure to steam the carrots really well.
Udon Noodles
1 pound udon noodles 1/4 cup tamari (= soy sauce) 2 tablespoons brown rice vinegar 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon sesame oil 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil 1 1/3 teaspoons maple syrup 1/3 teaspoon powdered ginger 1/3 teaspoon salt 2/3 carrot, peeled, sliced, and steamed 2/3 cup scallions, sliced 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds 2/3 teaspoon minced garlic
Cook noodles and drain. Toss with remaining ingredients. Cool in refrigerator until ready to eat. --The Farmacy (the health food store in my hometown)
Cuscus Estivo (Summer Couscous with Herbs)
2 cups water Salt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (I don't see why you couldn't leave this out) 10 ounces plain couscous 1/2 cup freshly chopped mint leaves 1/4 cup freshly chopped basil leaves 12 cherry tomatoes, quartered 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice Freshly ground pepper
In a medium saucepan, bring the water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and butter to a boil. Stir in the couscous. Cover the pan, remove from the heat, and let rest for 10 minutes.
Remove the cover and fluff the couscous with a fork. Stir in the mint and basil leaves, cherry tomatoes, oil, and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper and toss well. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
Toss the mixture again and serve at room temperature. Serves 4. --_Sicilian Home Cooking_

If it means that you have met Harrison Ford, I will be jealous! ( Just kidding!) I have loved him since Star Wars!

I'm a fanatical Star Wars Fan and Harrison Ford is one of my favourite actors. I'm definitely not a Princess ... so it had to be Han. I wanted to be Yoda, but I'm just not that wise or powerful. Chewie's too tall - I'm short. Luke is well... Luke. 3PO and R2 are robots, so ... enough details for you?
