Hey, Ruchie...one day at a time.
Brown rice pudding is as easy as substituting brown rice for the white. You can also use brown rice gf noodles in soups, pasta dishes, etc.
Tilapia is a mild white fish--it tastes rather like chicken!
Totally easy on the tummy! You might try Cod as well. Halibut rocks, too.
Do a search on EGG WHITE protein powders--I know several people with IBS use them successfully.
You could make some really funky frittatas & omelettes with anything on the list! Even a kind of potato omelette.
Pureed peas, by the way, is a great DIPPER! It kind of tastes similar to guacomole.
Why not a carrot soup? Sweet potato soup? Pea soup? Lentil soup? Brown rice/chicken & whatever else you want to put in the soup, soup? Chicken noodle soup. Mushroom soup?
Egg drop soup? A seafood chowder made thick & rich and creamy with potato? No-yolk noodle soup?
Grate zucchini & toss with pasta, chicken bits or tuna, or just enjoy plain. Perhaps mix with some of the pea sauce.
Stir fries?
Spaghetti squash is a favourite "fast food" of mine, lately.
Re: polenta
It is made with cornmeal. So, if that is a problem, skip it.
You could make a really nourishing quinoa dish...add some shiitakes, grated zucchini, matchstick carrots, peas...Substitute quinoa where you might eat rice.
Maybe an adapted chicken potpie? I think there's something on the recipe boards.
Create your own IC/Ruchie safe burritto.
Maybe a pumpkin date loaf or muffin kind of thing?
I'm sure you can imagine/figure out a kind of kugel. I know you'd love potato pancakes! French toast? Crepes?
Cream of wheat?
Would QUORN be okay for you to try/eat?
Snowpeas are really fun to add to things! They're great just quickly steamed/stir-fried.
You'll figure it out. JUST DON'T GIVE UP. Get some ingredients you can play with. Honestly...that's what I do...I play with what works. Yes, more or less an impromptu chef & I cross my fingers.
Oh, how could I forget! One of my favourite salads at the moment is LOADED with MUSHROOMS! (Always makes me feel really 'smurfy'...mushrooms on whatever kind of lettuce/greens. And, yes, spashing on carrot juice is a delicious dressing/sauce! Hey, you could really infuse some flavour into something with some of that stuff! Lol, orange mashed potatoes with chopped fresh basil leaves...Fresh basil on a pita pizza ...A basil & mushroom & potato frittata with some steamed snopeas on the side?)
How about a lean chicken or turkey meatloaf? Turkey burgers? Meatballs?
Kate.
