Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I am a newly diagnosed w/ IBS and am still reading Heather's books...so I have a general question about if this would be safe. Seems like it would to me, but wanted a more experienced answer. Would this be safe? If not what would be a trigger?

A girl at work told me about these and they seem yummy:
Blueberry Couscous Cake Recipe
Ingredients
6 cups apple juice
1 Tbsp vanilla
3 cups couscous
1 pint blueberries

Instructions
Pick over blueberries, wash and set on paper towels to dry.

Combine apple juice, vanilla, and couscous in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly until thickened and all juice absorbed. Remove from heat. Gently fold the blueberries into hot mix.

Rinse, but don't dry, a 9 x 14-inch cake pan and pour the mix into it. Chill until set, about 2 hours. Cut into squares.

Variations:
Use strawberries in place of blueberries, top with unsweetened fruit jam thinned with a little water, arrange fruit slices on top for decoration.

Yield: 18 - 24 servings
