Rice is supposed to be the most easily digested food!. They even give cream of rice cereal to children who are allergic to most other foods!. So, I would make dishes with rice like chicken soup with rice and even rice with brown sugar, cinnamon, and raisins mixed in it for a simple dessert!.

Probably soup!. I always like congee!. It's pretty much rice and water, but always comforting when I'm sick!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Chicken Noodle or Rice Soup!. I would just use chicken with salt and pepper!. Not a lot of seasoning with them being sick!. Boil your chicken with your salt and pepper then add noodles or rice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
