The moment I stepped out of the airport last weekend, my whole body said “brrr.” After spending a very special week in the Caribbean celebrating my mom’s 60th birthday, I was met with chili-craving Portland weather. I was also overdue for bringing you a new low FODMAP recipe. Thus, multi-purpose No-Bean Chili experimentation began! With…

Italian Herb Crispy Skin Chicken Thighs (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Cooking on weeknights doesn’t happen for me very often. There just isn’t time for that in my schedule. Instead, I like to spend my weeknights playing racquetball, catching a yoga class, or lifting weights (AKA…socializing) with a friend. But sometimes I am feeling inspired to eat a warm, freshly prepared low FODMAP meal and need…
Crockpot Wild Rice, Chicken, & Kale Stew (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Creating low FODMAP crockpot recipes is a challenge. So it’s a good thing for you that I like challenges! The reason it’s quite challenging to make delicious low FODMAP crockpot recipes is that the key ingredients for savory soups/stews (onion and garlic) are off-limits. Additionally, many soup/stew recipes use broth. My preference is to use…
Turkey Veggie Herb Burgers (Low FODMAP, GF, DF, SCD)
Making your own homemade SIBO freezer meals is an absolute lifesaver when it comes to managing SIBO and IBS with diet. Let’s face it- making all of your meals from scratch every day is not realistic. Especially when you work full time (or even part-time!), aren’t comfortable in the kitchen, or have health problems that…
Indian Butter Chicken & Vegetable Curry (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
There’s nothing I love quite as much as a one-dish low FODMAP meal. Especially when it involves warming, healing spices and requires less than 10 minutes of prep time! Having recipes like this one as part of your SIBO repertoire can be an absolute lifesaver when time is tight, but you still want to nourish…
Chicken & Vegetable Pesto Pasta (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Pasta- the epitome of comfort food. Unfortunately, comfort food frequently goes out the window for those following SIBO diets. But it can and should have a place in all “diets”. Optimal Wellness Food is meant to nourish us not just physically, but mentally as well. And I believe the key to optimal wellness is finding…
15-Minute Mediterranean Arugula Pasta (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Have you heard about the health benefits of a Mediterranean-style diet? Wondering what it is? Or if it could help with SIBO or other health conditions? Let’s find out! Plus enjoy a yummy recipe that captures some of its benefits! What is the Mediterranean Diet? The Mediterranean Diet describes a way of eating that…
Simple Antimicrobial Pho (Low FODMAP, GF, Vegan)
I love this antimicrobial pho recipe. And I think you will too- especially if you are suffering from SIBO and need a break from spending hours in the kitchen. This recipe is super simple to make, absolutely delicious, and full of nutrients. If you ask me about my favorite type of food, I will probably…
Chicken Sage Risotto (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Are you craving comfort food? When the weather turns chilly, I find that I crave it all the time. Do you? One of my current jobs is cooking for a family who loves good food. Including cheese. I find myself constantly trying to think of ways to sneak vegetables into comfort foods so that they feel satisfied,…
Eggplant Zucchini Lasagna (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
When the weather starts turning cold, I find that I am ready for some comfort food. But when eating dairy, gluten, or soups made with onion or garlic are out of the question, it can seem like not many comfort foods remain. That thought got me inspired. How do I create something satisfying, delicious, and…
