I used the boneless skinless chicken thighs last night for dinner and it worked out really good. It didn't give me any trouble. You could also use chicken breast in this recipe. I can't remember where I found this recipe but here it is...
Chicken Pot Roast Dinner
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Total Time: 8 hours and 25 minutes
Makes 6 Servings
1 lb small (6-8), potatoes cut into 1-inch pieces (3 cups)
2 cups ready-to-eat baby cut carrots
1 cup frozen pearl onions, thawed
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs (1 1/4 lb)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 jar (12 oz) chicken gravy (make your own safe gravy, 1 1/2 cups)
1 1/2 cups frozen sweet peas, thawed (I don't care for peas so I used frozen green beans instead)
1. Spray 3 to 4 quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In cooker place potatoes, carrots and thawed onions. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper; place over vegetables in cooker. Pour gravy over top.
2. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 8 to 10 hours (I cooked mine on med-high for about 5 hours because I didn't get it in early enough and that worked just fine).
3. Stir in thawed peas. Increase heat to High. Cover; cook about 15 minutes longer or until peas are tender. (If using green beans I put those in an hour before we were ready to eat.)
Makes 6 servings (1 1/2 cups each)
This was really good on a snowy day like yesterday. I can't wait to eat it for lunch today. Yum!

This was a simple gravy recipe I found and altered a little bit and it was good.
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (unbleached)
1 (10 1/2 ounce)can of chicken broth, undiluted
1/2 cup of soy or almond milk
2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour, and cook, whisking constantly one minute. Whisk in broth and remaining ingredients. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, 2 minutes or until mixture thickens.
You may want to add more flour depending on how thick you like it. I hope you enjoy it!
Happy Holidays!!

Hi and welcome!
Are you IBS C or D or A? If you haven't already you should see a GI doctor to make sure it is IBS you have and not something else. I also recommend reading Heather's book Eating for IBS to get started. This website is a very useful tool with a lot of knowledgeable people that can help. Here are some basics for eating...
Some regular diet ideas would be oatmeal, plain rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, french bread, chicken, ground turkey, soy milk, rice milk, or almond milk. Anything that has soluble fiber and try and stay away from foods with a high soluble fiber content until you are stable like certain vegetables, red meat, dairy products, caffeine. I don't know if you take a fiber supplement like Citrucel, Benefiber or Heather's acacia fiber. That's a big help for some with IBS (it is for me). I also recommend peppermint tea or fennel tea.
I would also recommend posting things like this on the IBS diet board and more people will be able to help!
Good Luck!
