Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi there - Most of these recipes sound pretty safe, as long as you keep on eye on the fat content (you can easily reduce the oil for many recipes) and serve the poultry or seafood ones with a soluble fiber basis (rice, pasta, etc.)

For these recipes, I'd make major substitutions:

Mango Ice Cream Boats (with pureed raspberries)
Make the ice cream with soy milk (or buy a soy/rice ice cream to use)

Onion and Pork Quesadillas

Do NOT use pork - it's right up there with beef as a huge trigger. Substitute skinless chicken breasts or fish, and if there's cheese in the recipe use a soy, rice, or almond version for the dairy.

Peach and Ricotta Tart
Substitute drained silken tofu or soy cream cheese for the ricotta - also, the crust might be sky high in fat, so check that

Toasted Pound Cake S'Mores
The angel food cake will work beautifully here - be careful that you use small amounts of solid chocolate, as it's pure fat

Let us know how the recipes turn out, and post any that are really good!
