One of the biggest myths about the low FODMAP diet is that you have to eat bland boring foods during the elimination phase. That is absolutely NOT true! A diet of just plain rice crackers and gluten-free toast is unnecessary and unhealthy. You can have a delicious, flavourful and varied diet while still managing digestive…
Low FODMAP
Quinoa Berry Breakfast Bake
It can sometimes be tough to figure out what to eat for breakfast on the low FODMAP diet. Many pancakes, waffles and cereals are made with wheat. Lots of wheat/gluten-free cereals and granola have added high FODMAP ingredients, such as inulin and honey. Oatmeal is one nutritious low FODMAP option and I have five flavours…

The Best Low FODMAP Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have been on a mission to make a perfect low FODMAP chocolate chip cookie for more than two years. When I first started the low FODMAP diet I tried a couple cookie recipes and was very disappointed. Since then I have been trying to adapt my favourite recipe from the Joy of Cooking. I’m…
Vanilla Maple Chia Pudding

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…
Maple Mustard Baked Salmon
Every time someone tells me they don’t like fish, or only eat it deep-fried, I am truly shocked. Fish is a staple food in our house. We eat so many different types and use various cooking methods. Some of our favourites are rainbow trout, tuna, tilapia and salmon. Not only is fish incredibly nutritious and…
