I found this on the Yahoo homepage today and thought, with a few very minor adjustments, this would be a very IBS-safe meal!
French-Toasted Tuna and Hummus Sandwiches
1 can (170 g/6 oz) water-packed solid tuna
175 ml (3/4 cup) prepared hummus
250 ml (1 cup) grated carrots
5 ml (1 tsp) cumin
8 slices [white] bread
125 ml ( 1/2 cup) [soy] milk
4 large egg whites
Press all liquid from tuna. Crumble tuna into a bowl. Add hummus, carrots and cumin, then mix thoroughly. Make 4 sandwiches with bread and tuna mixture.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together milk and egg whites. Dip one side of each sandwich at a time into egg mixture until it is lightly soaked. You should use up all of egg mixture.
Spray a large non-stick skillet (or two medium non-stick skillets) with cooking spray and heat over very low heat. Add sandwiches and cover skillet loosely with a lid or piece of foil.
Cook until undersides of sandwiches are well browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn sandwiches over and cook, still covered, until browned on second side, about 8 minutes more.
Makes 4 servings.
I suppose you could make the sandwiches without French-frying them, too!
