Low Fodmap Pesto Pasta
I make pesto pasta often, especially when I am feeling lazy. It takes just six ingredients to pull together this complete vegetarian meal featuring all of the food groups. (If you have reflux, you may need to leave out the garlic-infused oil.) You can use any type of low-FODMAP pasta you like with pesto, but spaghetti or tagliatelle are the traditional choices. If you have a low tolerance for fat, this may not be the best choice for you because the quantity of oil may trigger your symptoms. This recipe is straight from my cookbook, The Low FODMAP 6-week Plan & Cookbook. It is discounted right now on Amazon from $24.99 to $16.99. Buy it HERE. It is also available anywhere books are sold. Even our local bookstore in New Zealand has it. If your closest store doesn't, then ask them to order it in for you.

No More Excuses

Low Fodmap Lamb & Vegetable Soup
I usually do the inventing of the low Fodmap recipes and then post them here for you to re-create. But, today I am telling you about a meal I had the other night that took only a few minutes to prepare. Fodmap Friendly sent me some samples of low Fodmap food to try from Fodmapped and this lamb and vegetable soup was among them. It is low FODMAP, gluten Free, with no garlic or onion, no added MSG, no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives - exactly how we have to eat with IBS. The ingredients are: water, pumpkin (19%), lamb (12%), carrot (11%), celery (5%), brown rice, corn starch, glucose, salt, canola oil, yeast extracts, natural beef extracts, herbs, pepper and spices. I am delighted to say that it was delicious and very wholesome. In fact, I made some cheese on toast to go with it because I wasn't sure it would be enough for us, but it really was a meal on its own. You can read more about it HERE. For their products go to the Fodmapped website and see if they can be … [Read more...] about Low Fodmap Lamb & Vegetable Soup
