No dairy, low wheat, low sugar ... Help me cope with this special diet!

My DS has allergies plus an irritated bowel. He's seen a specialist doctor and it's been advised that we put him on a diet involving no dairy, no soya, reduced wheat and no high sugar foods.

I am a bit at a loss to think what he is going to eat.

And I don't know what "low wheat" actually means. I've not been given any advice on the actual amount of wheat that is ok for him.

Has anyone followed a similar diet, I would be very grateful for advice.

I'm thinking I will need to replace bread with perhaps rye bread, but I am not sure if that still contains wheat?

Breakfast could be porridge or rice crispies so that's ok.

Main meals I suppose will have to involve potatoes or rice instead of pasta/bread.

The no dairy thing is easier as he has been off dairy for some time.

Any advice or meal ideas would be most appreciated!

Thanks @haba for the custard pot idea, and I will check out the cinnamon bagels.

@millicentsnitch ice-cream idea sounds good I will take a look

Another thing I thought of: frozen potato waffles - some makes have milk, most don't - which are great instead of toast for beans etc. Also, bubble and squeak, made with leftover mash & veg is great to have frozen in individual portions.

Vietnamese cuisine is really good for dairy and wheat free - the occasional baguette, but otherwise no wheat or dairy is used at all.
