Low FODMAP Thai Basil Steak Salad

Dédé Wilson — Tue, 28 May 2024 12:42:23 +0000

This Low FODMAP Thai Basil Steak Salad is another one of our main-dish salads that we just cannot get enough of. Hearty, packed with protein, but lots of vegetables, too. And this one even has noodles! You could use sweet Italian basil, but if you can find Thai basil it will give it a distinct flavor that we love. It is a little spicy with a hint of licorice. Combined with ginger, Garlic-Infused Oil, toasted sesame oil, soy sauce and sambal oelek, this salad is filled with flavor. Let’s Talk About Texture & Color Chances are that if you are reading this, the images and title intrigued you, which means, I bet that you are a bit of a foodie. I actually dislike that term, but it says what it means. Come join us in our private Facebook Group, Low FODMAP for FOODIES, if you haven’t already. You will find […]

Vegan Red, White & Blue Popsicles – Low FODMAP

Dédé Wilson — Thu, 23 May 2024 12:03:30 +0000

Few foods are more fun or tastier than our Vegan Red, White & Blue Popsicles – low FODMAP, too, of course – and they are actually easy to make at home. You do need a popsicle mold, and they are not all created equal; more on that below. Get ready for a strawberry layer, a dairy-free coconut layer and a blueberry layer. These pops are sweet, but not-too-sweet, and happen to be vegan! Kids love eating these AND making them. Let them help. They will get a kick out of creating the three distinct layers. Fruit Updates Re: FODMAPs This recipe is all about fresh blueberries and strawberries. Are they low FODMAP? How much is low FODMAP? These fruit have been tested and re-tested and the results have shown differences in FODMAP content. What does that mean to you? Probably not what you think it means! Most people look at […]

Low FODMAP Chocolate Thin Mint Cookies – Girl Scout Copycat

Dédé Wilson — Fri, 26 Jan 2024 11:00:00 +0000

Our version of Low FODMAP Chocolate Thin Mint Cookies is a Girl Scout copycat, made gluten-free! A crisp chocolate cookie, flavored with peppermint, fully enrobed in chocolate, further enhanced with mint. I originally developed this recipe for Bon Appetit magazine in 2001 but updated it to be gluten-free and low FODMAP diet compliant. I served these to many non-special diet folks, and everyone raved. Take Advantage of Make-Ahead Steps There are several do-ahead steps, which makes this recipe easier than many other renditions. We have seen many versions that have you roll out the dough, cutting out the cookies with a cookie cutter, but I found that forming a roll and creating a slice-and-bake approach is much easier. Making Low FODMAP Chocolate Thin Mint Cookies For Cookie Dough: Whisk flour, cocoa, and salt in medium bowl to blend; set aside. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until smooth. Beat […]

Low FODMAP Sheet Pan Pumpkin Mac and Cheese

Dédé Wilson — Fri, 17 Nov 2023 20:23:31 +0000

Sheet Pan Pumpkin Mac and Cheese is the perfect tweak on classic mac and cheese – and you get to make it on a sheet pan, which feeds a crowd. Canned pumpkin adds creaminess, color and flavor. This just might be the perfect cool weather party pasta. And it is gluten-free, lactose-free and low FODMAP. Make sure you have a sturdy half-sheet pan. Half-sheet pans have specific dimensions – they are 18-inches by 13-inches with a 1-inch lip/rim (46 cm x 33 cm x 2.5 cm); it isn’t just a general term – and a sturdy aluminum half-sheet pan will never warp, will conduct heat well, and we love it for cookies, large batch brownies, roasting vegetables, chicken parts, and so much more. We always have a few in the kitchen and reach for them often. Frequently Asked Questions How To Make Low FODMAP Sheet Pan Pumpkin Mac and Cheese Heat oven […]

Low FODMAP Pasta Primavera

Dédé Wilson — Wed, 08 Nov 2023 15:42:34 +0000

Our Low FODMAP Pasta Primavera is made in one pan and features low FODMAP, gluten-free penne, loads of fresh arugula and spinach, chives, asparagus, peas, fresh herbs and Parmesan all in low FODMAP portions. The name, by the way, simply means springtime pasta, which can be interpreted in a variety of ways. History Of Pasta Primavera There are aspects to the history of the classic pasta primavera that we know, and other factors that are not as clear cut. It definitely harkens back to the mid-late 1970s in the U.S. and we know it was popularized by a New York Times article written by Craig Claiborne and Pierre Franey. They included a recipe and declared that it was the most talked about dish in Manhattan at the time. It certainly became a defining dish of the decade. Several people have either claimed to be the originator of the recipe or […]

Low FODMAP Mediterranean Pasta Salad

Dédé Wilson — Thu, 12 Oct 2023 16:50:39 +0000

Mediterranean Pasta Salad This Mediterranean Pasta Salad came about when I needed to make dinner on a hot New England summer evening. And this was the day after there was a hailstorm! Yup, I got that baby documented on a video. Such is the weather in our part of the world. I like pasta salads IF the pasta has not been refrigerated. I do not like the extreme firmness that the pasta takes on during refrigeration, so planning is key. Dinner In A Bowl (or On A Platter) Pasta salads do have a lot going for them, though. They are easy to make vegetarian or even vegan. You can add all sorts of colorful vegetables that you love and fresh herbs really enhance the whole dish. They can be simple or fancy enough for a party. They are easy to make! This Mediterranean Pasta Salad is easy and fancy looking! […]

Low FODMAP Scalloped Potatoes

Dédé Wilson — Tue, 26 Sep 2023 16:53:13 +0000

Low FODMAP Scalloped Potatoes are just like the classic dish, featuring starchy potatoes, cream and salt and pepper. Simple to make and serious comfort food. The scalloped potatoes are at home next to your favorite roasted meat or poultry. Fancy enough for guests but also easy enough for a homestyle meal. You can use russet potatoes, or a blend of russet and Yukon Gold potatoes. If you are looking for a potato gratin featuring cheese, and/or mushrooms, we have those recipes as well. We love these scalloped potatoes with roast leg of lamb for a holiday meal. Frequently Asked Questions How To Make The Richest Potatoes You Will Ever Eat Position rack in middle of oven.

Gluten-Free Low FODMAP Honey Cake

Dédé Wilson — Mon, 11 Sep 2023 12:11:59 +0000

Our Gluten-Free Low FODMAP Honey Cake is a simple, “plain” cake, perfect alongside a cup of your favorite hot beverage. Lovely for Rosh Hashanah, too. Speaking of hot beverages, there is black tea in the batter, which lends moisture and flavor. The honey is in a small amount, and the rest of the liquid sweetener is light corn syrup, which is low FODMAP (and not the same as high fructose corn syrup). FODMAP IT!™ This recipe is based upon one I found online; it was ripe for a low FODMAP re-do. I tweaked the preparation technique and made it low FODMAP by substituting a good amount of light corn syrup for the full 1 cup (240 ml) of honey that the original recipe called for. Honey has such a strong flavor, that it still shines through, even though you will only use ¼ cup (60 ml). You could use maple syrup instead of corn syrup, […]

Low FODMAP Instant Pot Pork Ragu

Dédé Wilson — Tue, 29 Aug 2023 13:08:55 +0000

Our Instant Pot Low FODMAP Pork Ragu is easy, flavorful and versatile. The Instant Pot is fantastic at breaking down the collagen in a big hunk of pork shoulder or pork butt. The pork is combined with tomatoes, Italian seasoning and low FODMAP garlic flavor and cooks down to a tender shredded texture that we love with polenta, pasta, mashed potatoes – even rice! Pork Butt Isn’t What You Think It Is First you have to buy your meat and you might come across labels that say butt and some say shoulder. We know shopping for pork shoulder can be confusing. You might find a hunk of meat that looks like a shoulder but is labeled as “butt” or “Boston butt”. It is a cut from the top of the pig’s shoulder, forming a somewhat rectangular hunk of well-marbled meat. It is called “butt” because in decades past, pork was […]
