Steamed shredded cabbage makes an excellent substitute for noodles.
Thick, thin, lasgne size, I use them a lot to stay away from refined
carbohydrates, and, as it appears, mild allergies to wheat, corn, and
rice.

I have made flat pancakes from rice or barley flour just poured into a cast
iron pan.  Chinese stores sell noodles made from rice flour and other things
(mung bean flour) in various shapes.  I don't see potatoes on the list of
foods to avoid.  How about the tropical starchy root vegetables (cassava =
tapioca, taro, various other starches that you can make into something called
fufu by mixing with boiling water and cooking a bit longer)?  Europeans used
to have to cook without corn, tomatoes, or peppers before 1492.  Sorghum,
teff, amaranth, quinoa, millet (we eat lots of that).  Rice flour or mung
flour or chickpea flour can be used as thickeners.  Try an Indian food store.
What other sour things can be used instead of tomatoes?  I can think of lemon
(unless it is a general citrus allergy), tamarind, vinegar, pomegranate syrup
(Middle Eastern food stores).

Is she allergic to all kinds of mushrooms, or just button mushrooms?

Does she eat meat?

As far as I know, it's all mushrooms, but I'll ask.  Yes, she's an omnivore...

Potatoes are related to tomatoes and so may be a problem.  Buckwheat comes
to mind as yet another grain.
