Simple Lunch for the recovering tummy

#2 is still ill with stomach flu and is eating very poorly. So I've been racking my brains on what to cook for an upset tummy. On Monday, it was Potato, Carrots, Edamame and Crab Stick in Dashi Stock and today it was Chicken and Pumpkin Porridge. Both turned out well and little one was willing to eat some of each. So here it is, food for a recovering tummy.
