Hello, I've just started dating this really terrific, wonderful woman who suffers from IBS. She would like Key Lime Pie for her birthday, I'm a gourmet chef and have no problems making a traditional Key Lime Pie, anyone have any idea how I can make one that will not trigger her symptoms?

I have no idea about the pie, but you should be nominated BOYFRIEND OF THE YEAR. Seriously, that's so nice of you.
As for the pie -- as you surely know, traditional keylime pie has oodles of egg yolk in it.
Take a look around our recipe archive and see if there is anything you can work with. I think maybe if you make an IBS-safe crust, and then fill it with a modified version of this Lemon Soymilk Pudding Recipe here, but made with lime instead, it could be close. I am also wondering if you could pick up a packet of lime jello and get creative ...
Please let us know if you figure anything out!
Good luck.

Just substitute soy milk and cream cheese for the regular. Get a brand that sets up in pudding- ask Casey. Also for evaporated milk- hmmm maybe reduce some soy milk or ?

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

Here's one I absolutely love! It's a little high in fat, but other than that it's totally safe. It didn't bother me at all, and it's so rich it's almost more like a key lime cheesecake!
Great Key Lime Pie

If you want to see a photo of the key lime pie here it is! It's not a great photo, but it's the best I have. The pie actually looks a LOT greener in reality.

Thank you to everyone who helped Rich make a delicious birthday pie for me! I agree, he should be nominated for boyfriend of the year... in fact, I'm sending in the registration now! ;-) He's a fantastic guy!
Seriously, the pie turned out wonderfully!
