What to Eat When I Don't Feel Like Eating?

Beans did come out ok on my allergy test, so maybe I should give those a try. Trouble is, I like most of the foods I'm eating now, but my gut doesn't. I need a substitute for my French fries; they're nice and filling, and I get most of my much-needed fat from them, but they seem to make the constipation and bloating worse. Broccoli and chicken are my safe foods; I don't feel noticeably worse after eating them. I wonder why... it seems like a hopeful sign, though! Sometimes I wonder how I'd feel if I could eat just those two foods... but that probably wouldn't fly. I've got to expand that "safe" list.

I like the idea of olive oil shot in the morning…
If you are really missing your French fries, cut up some type of potatoes into 3/4-1” pieces, lightly mix in a tiny bit of olive oil and kosher salt, roast until really really crispy, maybe at 400 degrees, watch the first time to see how long your oven takes. Can put on foil in a sheet pan for easy clean up! Yum! I have/had SIBO and really kinda watch diet. Can also do “microwaveable” carrots, trimmed kale, ( never ate it before sibo, ) tastes like potato chips, I don’t, but you could probably do broccoli…I had to get creative because all I was eating was squash, potatoes and chicken.
Can you do chicken BONE broth, (?) add package of plain precooked rice, kosher salt, (little at a time), small portion of chopped rinsed kale, pre-shredded carrots, chopped chicken and small potato pieces. Tastes yummy, and even looks good. Great easy soup to make and easy to digest. Good protein.
I’ve been making various versions of this soup and stocking the freezer for healthy, quick meals.
I wound up roasting the rest of the kale to make chips, (there are never any left they shrink), because bunches are big.
Good luck!!!
