Happy cooking!!!
1. Herby Courgette Spaghetti with Walnut Pesto is very quick and easy to make and is a really wonderful summer dish. I love this with a green, herby salad.
2. One of my favourite comforting dinners is Ratatouille (served with delicious Perfect Quinoa). It’s also darned good served with brown rice. Ratatouille is filling, warming, comforting and nutritious.
3. If you love tofu as much as I do (and a bit of spice!) you will love Ma Po Tofu. I could eat this every day with a bowl of simple plain rice.
4. I do love a warm salad and Spicy, Grilled Green Bean and Potato Salad hits the spot. Great for cool summers, Sunday lunches or anytime.
5. Parsnip and Walnut Soup with Walnut Pesto is a fabulous, filling, nutritious soup that will fill you with joy. I love this soup.
6. Sometimes you just want a light, tasty, filling salad for dinner. Asian Slaw with Cumin Aioli is perfect. Massive on flavour and huge on crunch I could eat this for dinner several times a week. Sprinkle with seeds to add a bit of pizzaz!!!
7. I have to end the list with another tofu dish. Before I had to stop eating gluten Tofu and Green Peppers in Black Bean Sauce was my favourite take-away dish from my favourite Chinese restaurant. I adored it. I missed it. So I make my own now. One of my all-time favourite dishes.
Want to Know More About the Low FODMAP Diet?
A low FODMAP diet is very difficult to do on your own and it’s more challenging to do a Gluten-Free and Vegan and Low FODMAP diet. It involves cutting out significant food groups and it is difficult to understand at first. In the UK you are advised to only do this under the direction of a dietitian.
FODMAP stands for
- F Fermentable
- O Oligo-saccharides (fructans and galacto-oligosaccharides)
- D Di-saccharides (lactose)
- M Mono-saccharides (fructose)
- A And
- P Polyols (sugar alcohols)
In really simple terms FODMAPs are fermentable carbohydrates.
