Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Wow with your additional food sensitivities it sure makes it hard to come up with safe snacks! When I started the EFI diet I had some strange snacks that weren't quite recommended; luckily I stabilized anyway. Most of my fall back snacks are fruits and nuts. So I haven't got any quick ideas for you. I'll think about it though and I just wanted to reply since there were no other replies.
Obviously you can eat lean turkey, chicken and fish. What about the SF fruits and veggies- ok with them? I love cooked carrots and sweet potatoes. Eat much egg whites? You can always fall back on egg white, spinach and mushroom omelet with a piece of toast or tortilla.
I suppose beans and other legumes are a no-go? Otherwise a bean spread made out of an easier bean like chickpeas or white beans put on toast or crackers is good.
Good luck!

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!
