reneelm Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I started strong and then came the stomach flu. I need suggestions to ease my way back into food. My normal go to foods in this situation were crackers, toast, etc. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renee Lee Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Ugh, so sorry that this bug hit you! Nothing worse. Do your best. I make my own bone broth from chicken carcasses. It is so warm and comforting, AND is very good for the gut. Personally, I've never struggled to keep either eggs or soup (broth) down, but your mileage may vary. Be mindful to stay hydrated! Feel better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reneelm Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks for the help - I came through with flying colors. Stomach's back to normal. Scrambled eggs and broth both helped. I also pureed some butternut squash with coconut milk. Now I'm back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alicia Jaybird Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Getting the flu and feeling stuck eating canned soup or nothing reminded me to make and stock up on lots of bone broth in case something like that happened again. I felt too wiped out to cook at the time, so my only advice is to plan ahead if possible by making and freezing broth and gentle soups. I'm glad to see a list of suggestions in one place here!
