Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: College dorm

First of all, I just want to let you know that I keep Kosher too.
Just a few questions:
What kind of cooking equiptment do you have in your dorm? Hot plate, burner, full oven etc.
Do you have a normal size fridge where you can store pre-made foods?

OK- now some advice from a Jewish Mama with the need to feed.

PASTA is your best friend. It's cheap and easy to cook and easy on your stomach.

You can have it plain or dress it up. Add veggies, melt soy cheese over it etc. When I was a dormer I lived on macaroni and soy hot dogs. I have a few recipes for you(mostly parev) just let me know about your cooking facilities.

EGG BEATER can be scrambled just like a regular egg but it won't make you double over in pain. It's 1/4 cup of beater per egg. Spray some cooking spray (PAM) into a skillet and mix the eggs in a cup with a drop of salt. Scramble it into the pan and after about a minute flip it over. Make yourself some toast to go with it and a few veggies (not too many) and that's a quick and easy meal.

Rice is also great but if you're IBS-C I would't reccomend too much of it.

Sandwiches and wraps work great on the run. Also, keep a package of rice cakes, safe crackers, or any other safe snack in your back pack because hunger can sometimes cause stomach discomfort and you never know when you might get stuck somewhere where you can't get safe food. (Try Osem or Kedem Tea Biscuts)

OK get back to me about your kitchen situation and I'll give you a bunch of recipes. Good Luck.
