Low-FODMAP Main Courses, Part 2

Here are some main course meals which I plan to try out this week for my recovery days from testing fructans in the low-FODMAP diet. Unfortunately wheat bread did not sit well with my stomach -- but knowing that information will help me feel better in the long run. I use a kitchen scale to weigh serving sizes according to the Monash University App. Please use your own judgement when choosing ingredients and serving sizes. Low FODMAP Chicken Satay Stir-Fry with Rice Noodles - ?? stars I plan to use fresh local vegetables grown by Fermes Lufa in their factory-roof greenhouses. Yay for fresh local greens in the middle of winter! http://www.fodmapfun.com/chicken-satay-stir-fry-with-rice-noodles/ Maple-Soy Glazed Salmon  - 5 stars This recipe works well on the low-FODMAP diet if I just omit the garlic. I have cooked it before and everybody really loves it, including my toddler. I will serve it with basmati rice, steamed carrots and slices of cucumber. http://thiswestcoastmomm...

Low-FODMAP Treats, part 3

Apparently I have a sweet tooth today! Here are two recipes I have already tried and liked, plus a few links to recipes that I don't want to lose track of before I get the chance to try them. Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies  - 4 stars This one was a big hit with my toddler, whose favourite word these days is "coooooooo-kie!" They are a bit crumblier than my standard (gluten-containing) cookies but not too sweet and quite tasty. http://blog.katescarlata.com/2015/08/20/chewy-peanut-butter-cookies/ Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies I am planning to do some baking this afternoon, and so far I am having good luck with the gluten-free recipes on King Arthur Flour's website. King Arthur gluten-free blend is not available in Canada as far as I know. I usually substitute the 1-to-1 gluten-free baking mix (which contains all low-FODMAP flours and starches, to the best of my knowledge) found at Bulk Barn. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/gluten-free-chocolate-...
