Special Pregnancy Diet Ideas??

Question

My daughter in law just started her 2nd trimester and she's having problems with her gall bladder.  She's sick and in & out of the hospital.  Doctors told her no spicy,  caffeine,  chicken, fried, and no dairy?! What can she eat??

I also struggled with similar issues since I had my gall bladder removed a couple of years ago, so I have to be very careful with what I eat. During pregnancy I had a lot of oats (porridge or overnight oats) and fruit bowls for breakfast; I would just recommend to use milk alternatives if she is particularly sensitive to dairy. For lunch and dinner I struggle a bit more since during my 1st and 2nd trimester I had a huge food aversion with meats (specially red meat and chicken; I couldn't even stand the smell) so I ate a lot of plant based proteins like edamame and beans
