Yeah so I've been trying to go vegan all year and I'm pretty proud that I'm for all intents and purposes fully vegan at this point. Except I've been dealing with some stomach issues this past week or so, and unfortunately many of my go to stomachache recipes use chicken: plain chicken and rice, chicken soup, chicken broth, etc.

I'm wondering what, as vegans, you all eat when you're dealing with stomach issues. I can generally stomach oatmeal, although not too much of it, and plain white bread, again not too much. Bananas are always a go to for me also. But I'm unsure of what else to eat - beans are out, I feel like most nuts are out? What do you all eat when dealing with stomach issues?

    The whole family recently had a stomach bug and when I took one of our kids in to get looked at, his dr recommended the BRAT diet. Bananas, Rice, Apple Sauce, Toast. It's not incredibly nutritious and I guess not recommended much anymore, but it seemed to work for me at least. It's super easy to adapt to vegan too. The fruit part already comes vegan out the gate, but I used plant butter(well margarine) for the toast and rice and did that for 2 days until my stomach wasn't doing flips and flops anymore.

    For swapping what you listed, Gardein makes a few soups that are decent. And most places will carry veggie broth. I used Better Than Bouillon veggie base for a lot of stuff and it's easy to whip up a cup of broth with it.
