I love chia seeds! They are super nutrient dense and contain protein, fibre, heart-healthy fats, calcium, magnesium, and more. I eat chia seeds almost daily and throw them into oatmeal, cereal, smoothies and more. However, the most common way I eat them is by making them into an easy Low FODMAP Vanilla Maple Chia Pudding!…

Swedish Pancakes with Strawberry Ginger Sauce
I’ve shared a lot of my family’s favourite recipes on this blog. I can confidently say that today’s recipe is our all-time favourite recipe. My Swedish grandmother used to make these pancakes for us every weekend. She would serve it with a homemade blueberry sauce made with berries from her garden. Now my dad and…
Easy Roasted Carrots
This week I’m sharing a super easy and inexpensive recipe that is also amazingly tasty. Roasting vegetables is my all-time favourite way of cooking them. It brings out amazing flavours and creates a great texture when done right. Giant bags of carrots are often on sale at my grocery store. Sometimes I can get them…
Vegan Quinoa Cakes
Earlier this week I posted a fantastic guest blog post about vegetarianism and the low FODMAP diet. It can be really tough to follow a vegetarian or vegan diet while completing the low FODMAP diet, but it is possible. I actually was a pescetarian for the first 6 months I was on the diet, but…
Greek Egg Muffins
I’m a big fan of eggs. There are so many delicious ways to cook them, and they are super nutritious. When I’m home at lunch time I often made scrambled eggs, but for days I’m at the office I have to pack a lunch. That’s where this recipe comes in! For years, these Low FODMAP…
Healthy Banana Oat Cookies
I love cookies. That’s probably fairly obvious, since I already have three cookie recipes on this blog. I often wish I could eat piles of cookies every day without consequences. Unfortunately, I know that eating that much fat and sugar on a daily basis makes my stomach hate me. I stick to eating the occasional…
Carrot Ginger Soup
I absolutely love ginger. I use it in tea, stir fries, smoothies, and soup too. Carrot ginger is a classic soup flavour, and now I have created a delicious low FODMAP, gluten-free and vegan version. It is great for staying warm in the winter, or you can eat it chilled in the summer. Keep on…
Dark Hot Chocolate
One of my favourite foods is dark chocolate. I am so happy it is low FODMAP (at 30 g servings or less). I eat it by itself, dipped in peanut butter, crumbled into oatmeal, and baked into cookies. And now, I’ve put it in hot chocolate too! This Low FODMAP Dark Hot Chocolate recipe is…
Peppermint White Hot Chocolate
When I lived in downtown Toronto for two years, I regularly went to the Canadian coffee shop Second Cup. There was one attached to my building, and I spent many hours there sipping tea and writing my grad school papers. Around Christmas time, they would release their holiday menu, including a peppermint white hot chocolate….
Cinnamon Spiced Hot Chocolate
Today I am posting hot chocolate recipe number 2 of 4! Click here to see the recipe for easy homemade whipped cream I posted earlier today. Yesterday I shared a simple lower calorie hot chocolate. For those of you craving a richer and more flavourful hot chocolate, this recipe is for you! I absolutely love…
