Have you tried a plain baked potato?
You can also boil peeled and quartered potatoes, then mash them using a little chicken broth and/or rice milk. These taste good, and settle my tummy when I'm feeling miserable.
Also, when I was a little girl and had a tummy ache, my mother would boil some egg noodles separately (now use yolk-free). She would add some of these to the can of hot chicken broth heated separately, and then pour this over a scoop of hot mashed potatoes... talk about a soothing comfort food! This is it!!!
I sometimes make this for myself today, though I do add a little fresh thin ginger slices (peeled, of course) to the chicken broth while it is being heated. If I happen to have a little cooked chicken breast in the fridge, I add a few pieces of that as well while heating up the broth. You could even add some of Heather's acacia fiber to this to boost the soluable fiber without changing the taste nor the texture.
