Try spaghetti squash for spaghetti. Its quite nice, I got it for me, and now I have to make it for everyone, they prefer it over pasta.
I just don't do the bread thing, either. I don't really like the substitutes, although I did find some nice rice flour shortbread cookies at Christmas that were very yummy.
Try making some soups and stuff for a change up. If you want a starch on the side, cheese and some of those "mary's crackers" made with quinoa and flaxseed are nice, (hmm, read the label, I am not sure they are nut free) or some rice crackers. A nice zucchini soup would be just right I think.
How bout grilled veggies with "insert meat or fish of choice here".
I am allergic to a lot of fruits, (banana, kiwi, all citrus) and it is amazing how hard that can be. My daughter had problems with corn, (especially corn starch) and I didn't eat any of it while breastfeeding for 3.5 years, and she reacted til she was 5, and wow, was it hard to avoid.
Allergies are never easy, and when your food world gets smaller you have to be creative.
