As I prepare for the fast-approaching start of my master’s degree program on July 6th, I am eager to find ways to maintain my clean eating regimen while having less free time. I have created a tasty granola recipe that is multi-purpose and super easy to prepare. It also creates very few dishes, which is…

Chocolate Banana Smoothie w/ PurePaleo Protein (Low FODMAP, GF, DF)
Sometimes you just need something easy for breakfast… Living with a chronic illness is exhausting. Individuals with chronic illnesses often have less hours in the day to get everything done. They typically need at least 9-10 hours of sleep per night in order to function somewhat normally. Additionally, there is cooking the majority of meals…
Chili Vinaigrette Salad with Creamy Walnut Sauce (Low FODMAP, SCD, Vegan)
The inspiration for this recipe comes from one of my favorite places to eat here in Portland- Prasad Cafe. It is a gluten-free, vegan, organic cafe located in the Pearl district (since writing this post, there is now also a location in NE Portland- the menus are different). Although many of the menu items at…
SIBO-Friendly Beef Chili (Low FODMAP, GF, DF, SCD)
Would you believe it if I told you that it only took me 10 minutes of active prep time to make last night’s delicious chili recipe? I threw the ingredients in my crock pot before I left for work and came home to a delicious smelling house and warm food. Note: if your crock pot does…
Roasted Celeriac & Rainbow Carrots (Low FODMAP, SCD, Vegan)
Want a super easy and SIBO-safe vegetable recipe? Congratulations, you have found it! For this recipe, I like to cut up my veggies on Sunday and bake a batch right before I plan to eat (roasted veggies taste best when warm- reheating will probably make them soggy). These pre-cut veggies lasted 5 days in the…
SIBO-Friendly Pumpkin Pie (Low FODMAP, GF, DF, Egg-Free)
Last year I was the one who had to sit there staring at my family while they ate dessert. This year, I vowed to be able to enjoy it with them. I had to experiment a couple of times to get the pie just the way I wanted it, but I have officially created a…
Simple Lettuce Wraps w/ Almond Butter Sauce (Low FODMAP, GF, DF, SCD)
I have always been a big fan of Thai food, especially salad rolls with a delicious peanut sauce. Unfortunately, there are all sorts of ingredients in those that can be problematic for those on a restrictive SIBO diet (garlic, peanuts, sugar, soy, who knows what else!). This Simple Lettuce Wraps recipe hits the spot when…
Tangy Spiced Delicata Squash (Low FODMAP, SCD, Vegan)
I find myself fascinated by foods that I have never tried before. Delicata squash fell into that category a couple of months ago and I have made it my mission to figure out how to make a delicious, SIBO-friendly recipe with it. Delicata is a delightful winter squash and the only one I know of…
Oven Baked Lemon Dill Steelhead (Low FODMAP, GF, DF, SCD)
I went grocery shopping at Food-Front Co-Op yesterday and found some wild-caught steelhead on sale for $9.99/lb (normally $14.99/lb). I decided to buy it as a nice treat for my breakfasts this week. Yes, I did say breakfasts. Sometimes with SIBO, eating meat or fish for breakfast is a necessity because it is better tolerated…
