Update on Low FODMAP Diet

November 19, 2021 I wanted to provide an update on Bruce’s experience with the low FODMAP diet. This is not a diet to lose weight, but to tame lower GI distress. Bruce has been on the low FODMAP diet since September of 2020. First, we limited the foods that Bruce ate to only low FODMAP […]

Low FODMAP Tex-Mex Style Beef and Pork Enchilada

This is a recipe that I made up. I had guest coming over to the RV and I wanted something I could easily prepare ahead of time and then finish when my company come over to tour the RV. Serves 8 to 10

Pecan Pie with No Corn Syrup

I made my first pie in the RV kitchen. I had some problems with my RV oven, and even so, this pie came out beautifully. This recipe is a modification of the pecan pie recipe from the blog by Sharon Rigsby, Grits and Pinecones and here is a link to her original recipe: https://www.gritsandpinecones.com/dots-ultimate-southern-pecan-pie/. The […]

Low FODMAP Cranberry Orange Chutney

I love tart cranberries when they are in season. It is so fun to make things with them. This year for Thanksgiving, I made this cranberry orange chutney to go with the lamb rib roast. Since 1 tablespoon of dried cranberries are fine for the low FODMAP diet, I felt that a few more fresh […]

Potato and Artichoke Gratin

EatingWell.com had a recipe for Artichoke-Potato Gratin by Amy Thielen that I modified to make a potato dish for Thanksgiving. I made this low FODMAP for Bruce. The amount of artichokes in a serving should not cause a problem. It is also the same with the heavy cream and Pecorino Romano cheese. Serves 4 to […]

Low FODMAP Sheet Dinner

I wanted to make an easy dinner and make it low FODMAP. I looked in the fridge and considered my options. I decide on a sheet dinner with chicken, carrots, bell peppers, mushrooms, and potatoes. While mushrooms are not low FODMAP, they don’t bother Bruce. Once again, I forgot to take a picture, but this […]

Instant Pot Low FODMAP Stuffed Pepper Soup

With the colder weather last weekend, it felt like a great time to have soup. I put my own spin on the Stuffed Pepper Soup recipe from Skinnytast.com. I changed the original recipe to make it low FODMAP with a Greek spice mix and slightly spicy. It was delicious! Here’s the link to the original […]

Instant Pot Low-FODMAP Beef Stew

I started from the Lazy Day Beef Stew from the The Rootitoot Cookbook, by Ruth “Rootitoot” McCusker. I changed the recipe a good bit to make it low FODMAP and then I simplified a couple of steps to make an even easier “dump” stew. This recipe can even be made with frozen beef cubes. Serves […]

Instant Pot Low FODMAP Pot Roast

Since Bruce is trying to eat a low FODMAP diet, and I had a chuck roast, I looked for a good pot roast recipe that I could modify to be low FODMAP. I found one in The Rootitoot Cookbook, A Grandma’s Recipes for Your Instant Pot by Ruth “Rootitoot” McCusker. If you haven’t discovered her […]

Instant Pot Low FODMAP Arroz Con Pollo

Since Bruce now has to eat a low FODMAP diet, I am looking at recipes in a new way. The original recipe came from “The Essential Mexican Instant Pot Cookbook” by Deborah Schneider. I’ve modified it to be low FODMAP and was very pleased with the results. Bruce was delighted with the results as well. […]
