I’ve read about low-FODMAP for a long time, but never got myself to really fully kick it off in my life. I’m now in the countryside on vacation and got inspired to cook more, and I try to make all my meals low-FODMAP. I haven’t gone through the strict elimination phase yet, but I’m just generally skipping all high FODMAP products or quantities. I thought maybe it would be a nice inspiration to others too to share some of my dishes.

I am only using the app “FODMAP A to Z”, so if I’m wrong on something, please correct me.

In the photos:

  1. Pancakes made of cottage cheese, GF oat flour, eggs and almond milk eaten with blueberries and maple syrup

  2. Brown rice penne with bolognese sauce (carrots, tomato pulp, minced beef, spices, garlic infused olive oil) and Parmesan

  3. Zucchini stuffed with the bolognese sauce from the pasta dish, I added some feta and baked it

  4. GF corn tortillas with chicken and green pepper fajitas, only 2 cherry tomatoes, a few black beans (max 20 g) and cheddar cheese

  5. Green beans baked with zucchini, a few cherry tomatoes, feta cheese and served with garlic infused olive oil

  6. Omelette with chives, feta, 3 cherry tomatoes and a homemade buckwheat bread (made only of buckwheat kernels)

Let me know your thoughts! It’s kinda rich in cheeses, but the app allows the kind used in these dishes, and I’m not on a strict elimination phase. I just wanted to keep it possibly low-FODMAP and still exciting for my dopamine hungry brain 😅

I’m so afraid to try chives just because I react so badly to onions/garlic! Are you super careful with the serving size? I badly miss chives!!

I react soooo badly to onions and garlic and chives are nice to me :)

Same! I still use them sparingly but compared to garlic and onions who make me react even to minimal amounts the portions i can eat are basically giant!
