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?
Similar to the reasons I used to make chicken soup, but I make a very simple potato soup now. For me the goal is to have a nourishing and very simple meal that won't over complicate things in my digestive system and will restore some of those electrolytes you can lose through illness.
To make it, I basically just cube a few potatoes, dice an onion, and throw it into the pot with some water and simmer until the potato is soft then add a bunch of salt at the end. Super soft to eat, easy on the stomach, and restores some of the lost salts in your body.
Edit: Low key, it's also really tasty but I can see how it could come across as bland. This with some Better than Boullion veggy stock and some extra vegetables and more compound steps (like sauteing the onions) is one of my main rotation meals too.
