Oops! I forgot to mention I eat apple/blueberry babyfood sauce too on my breakfast bagel! I don't eat peas because I find they irritate my IBS.
For lunch and snacks I make a heap of sandwiches made with French white bread or white flour panini buns (bought from a good Toronto bakery with no milk products).
On the bread I spread organic Earth Balance buttery spread (100 per cent vegan with no additives; available at Trader Joe's and health food stores in the U.S. and available at health food stores in Canada).
I put organic turkey slices or chicken breast on the sandwiches. I buy the turkey slices at the health food store. They are vacuum packed and have no additives other than some salt. I cook the chicken breast myself.
Sometimes I mix canned tuna (packed in water with no additives) with two organic egg whites and a little water and bake for 35 minutes at 350 F. Once cooked and cooled, I put the tuna mixture on my sandwiches.
Sometimes I also put some organic mashed sweet potato or organic mashed regular potato on my turkey and chicken sandwiches (if I am very hungry). I find the cooked potato is a good substitute for lettuce, which I can't always tolerate. My sandwiches are much moister and thicker with the mashed potato.
I eat a half or whole sandwich every couple of hours.
For other snacks I bake and eat Heather's banana bread (I omit the sugar because I can't have it) or I make the same recipe substituting apple sauce and a little cinnamon for the banana to make "apple bread."
I also sometimes eat Yehuda matzoh, which I find at places that sell Jewish food. The matzoh looks just like crackers, but tastes better. The best part is the only ingredients in the Yehuda brand are white wheat flour and water! Yehuda matzoh is available in both the U.S. and Canada. (I always take a box or two of the matzoh with me whenever I travel in case I can't find any IBS "safe" bread where I'm staying.)
