Well, I know ham isn't technically on the safe list, but it generally is pretty low in fat when you buy the pre-cooked loaf-type, rather than the big bone-in kind (which has loads of fat). I will cook it in my slow cooker with a sweet-smokey glaze (I don't have the recipe handy but I will post it later if you're interested!)

I was going to make mashed potatoes with a mix of vegetable broth, soy milk, garlic and non-dairy low-fat margerine.

A stuffing and zuchinni casserole that is supposed to be made with cream of mushroom soup, but I will create my own substitute with soy milk, veg. broth, and flour to thicken instead (you can also use the Imagine brand Cream of Mushroom soup but I can't find it anywhere). Again, I can post the recipe if you like. I was also going to serve up some other type of veggie, like brocolli or carrots, maybe carrots because they are safer.

For dessert, I was thinking about whipping up some type of yule log, made with chocolate angel food cake and some type of IBS-friendly frosting (Cool Whip is mostly dairy free and I may end up using that since I seem to be able to tolerate small amounts of dairy).

Yes, I love to cook.
