Patriotic Potato Salad (Low FODMAP)

30 Minutes prep • 2 hours chill • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 8 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-4

I have loved this potato salad since Sheila Lukins and Julee Rosso published it decades ago in their Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook. I have made very slight modifications to the recipe for all of you to enjoy. It’s a wonderful potato salad for any occasion, and it’s even better the next day so it’s a great make-ahead time saver. The name came from the fact that the salad creates a confetti effect that anticipates a celebration.

Ingredients

14 small new red potatoes, scrubbed clean

6 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and quartered

1 - 2 medium-sized carrots, peeled and grated

1 bunch green onions, green part only (chopped)

3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 tablespoon caraway seeds

3/4 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

3/4 cup lactose-free sour cream

3/4 cup mayonnaise

Directions

(1) Prepare: Hard boil the eggs. Wash potatoes and cut larger potatoes in half so they are all about the same size. Peel and grate the carrot(s). Chop the green onion greens.

(2) Cook the potatoes: Heat a medium-size saucepan of water to boiling. Add the potatoes and cook just until tender, 20-25 minutes. Drain, cool, and cut in half.

(3) Make the salad: Combine the eggs, potatoes, carrots, and green onion greens in a large bowl. Add the dill, parsley, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper and gently toss to combine.

(4) Blend and add the sauce: Mix the sour cream and mayonnaise and gently fold into the potato mixture.

(5) Finish: Refrigerate the salad several hours before serving to allow flavors to blend.

(6) Plate and serve: Stir, taste, and add a bit more salt if needed. Serve alongside any grilled meat or fish.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Recipe note: I use Diamond Crystal Kosher salt in all my recipes because it has a wonderful flat and crisp flake that tastes delicious. It is also the least salty salt available so you can use it more liberally as a seasoning than you can table salt or sea salt. If you use another type of salt, you may need to reduce the amount so it is not over-salted.

Garlic Parmesan Roasted New Potatoes (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 20 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-2

These potatoes are the perfect way to welcome friends and family into your kitchen. You’ll know what I mean when you make them and your kitchen smells divine while they’re cooking. Delicious alongside just about anything, you’ll love the garlicky taste (without the FODMAPs thanks to Smoke N Sanity’s Garlic Parmesan Seasoning). Make these potatoes and chill them overnight for a fantastic potato salad base too.

Ingredients

12 medium or 20 small new potatoes

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons Smoke N Sanity Garlic Parmesan Seasoning (Use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

1 cup extra aged gouda or parmesan, grated

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh parsley, chopped, for serving (optional)

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grate the cheese, wash the potatoes and cut them in half. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

(2) Season the potatoes: Put the halved potatoes in a mixing bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss to coat all potatoes. Sprinkle on the Garlic Parmesan seasoning, the salt, and the pepper, and toss again to coat the potatoes.

(3) Bake: Put the potatoes, flat side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Don’t worry about where the cheese ends up, it’s delicious however it cooks (under or on top of the potatoes). Bake for 20 minutes. Check for tenderness with a fork. If they are still pretty firm, cook another 3 - 5 minutes. The fork should easily slide into the potato.

(4) Plate and serve: Serve alongside your favorite main course. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if you like.

Sauteed Red Chard and Pomegranate Salad (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 10 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Vegan • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

When mother nature makes something so beautiful, you just have to find a way to experience it! This delicious dish combines the earthy richness of sautéed red chard with a burst of sweet pomegranate seeds delivering a full array of colors, textures, and flavors. And, while you can eat it warm right out of the pan, it will be at its most delicious once cooled. That means it’s a great make-ahead or bring-along dish. So, whether you're looking for a beautiful and hearty side dish or a nutritious vegetarian main, this salad is sure to please.

Ingredients

1 bunch Red Swiss chard (about 6 leaves)

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt, more to taste

2 - 3 teaspoons lemon juice (about 1/2 lemon)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 - 1/2 cup pomegranate arils (seeds)

Directions

(1) Prepare: Wash the chard and spin or pat it dry. Cut the stems apart from the chard leaves and chop the stems into 1/2-inch slices. Coarsely chop the leaves.

(2) Cook the chard: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the garlic-infused olive oil and heat until the oil is hot and shimmers. Add the chard stems and cook for 2 - 3 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Add the chard leaves and cook another 2 - 3 minutes until the leaves have softened. Add the salt, and several grinds of pepper, and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the leaves are wilted.

(3) Finish: Turn off the heat, squeeze the lemon juice over the chard, and toss. Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds. Let cool to room temperature or refrigerate until ready to serve.

(4) Plate and serve: I like this dish best the next day — after it has chilled and mellowed. But you may serve it warm right out of the pan if you prefer.

Ingredients

24 ounces Organic Rosemary Sourdough Bread (you can also use plain sourdough bread)

4 ounces dried, sweetened cranberries (optional)

1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil

3 tablespoons salted butter, room temperature

2 Large leeks (green part only), washed and chopped (you will need 2 cups total)

1 pound oyster mushrooms, chopped

1/2 pound gruyere cheese, grated

1/4 pound Jarlsberg cheese, grated

2 cups chicken broth (I use Whole Foods Organic 365 chicken broth or Gourmend low FODMAP Organic Chicken Broth - use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

3 eggs, room temperature, beaten

1 tablespoon fresh, or 1 teaspoon dry rosemary

1 tablespoon fresh, or 1 teaspoon dry thyme

2 teaspoons fresh, or 3/4 teaspoon dry sage

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Cube the bread (including the crust) into bite-sized pieces. Chop the mushrooms, leek greens, and fresh herbs (if using). Grate the cheeses. Grease a 9”x 13” pan or equivalent with 1 tablespoon butter.

(2) Toast bread cubes: Spread the bread cubes evenly across two rimmed baking sheets. Put in preheated oven and bake for 10 mins. Remove from the oven and sprinkle very lightly with Kosher salt. Set aside.

(3) Cook the greens: In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the garlic olive oil, when hot, add dry herbs and let sizzle for 30 seconds. (If using fresh herbs, add them with the leek greens.) Add the leek greens and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until tender. Add the butter to the pan and then, when melted, add the chopped mushrooms and sauté until mushrooms start to turn golden brown (about 10 minutes more). Set aside.
(4) Combine: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sauteed greens with the toasted bread cubes and cranberries (if using). Lightly whisk the eggs before you add them to the bread cube mixture. Toss well. Add 2 cups of chicken broth. Toss again. Add salt and pepper and, if it seems dry add another 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Add about 3/4 of the grated cheese to the mixture and toss once more.

(5) Bake: Put the bread cube mixture in the prepared baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove from the oven and remove the foil. Top with your remaining cheese and bake for another 20-30 minutes until the cheese is fully melted. If you like a crisp top, you may finish the cooking time with 2 - 3 minutes under the broiler. 

(6) Plate and serve: Serve as a hearty side dish for meat, poultry, or pork. This bread stuffing goes great with traditional turkey and gravy or even with a less traditional rosemary cream sauce.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Zesty Roasted Lemon Parmesan Broccoli (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 25 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Step 1

Get ready to elevate your roasted broccoli game with this incredibly simple yet delicious recipe. It's all about that perfect trio of flavors – broccoli, zesty lemon, and rich Parmesan cheese. This simple side dish is not only a match made in heaven but also a breeze to prepare.

Ingredients

4 cups broccoli (florets only)

3 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 tablespoons salted butter, melted

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the broccoli into florets discarding the stalks (which contain the FODMAPs). Cut the larger pieces through the base of the head with a small knife, pulling the florets apart so all the florets are approximately the same size. You should have about 4 cups of florets. Place the broccoli florets in a bowl and drizzle with 3 tablespoons of garlic-infused olive oil. Toss well to combine. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.

(2) Roast: Put the broccoli on a sheet pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Roast for 15 minutes, then toss and flip them and spread into one layer again. Roast for another 10 minutes, until crisp, yet tender in the thickest part, and the tips of some of the florets are browned (I like them quite browned myself).

(3) Finish: Remove the broccoli from the oven and immediately toss with a mixture of 2 tablespoons of melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese. If you like a crispier finish, turn the oven up to broil, return the pan to the oven, and broil until the cheese starts to crisp (about 2 minutes).

(4) Plate and serve: Serve warm.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

This recipe enhances that nutty flavor with seasoning that is a combination of macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, and nutritional yeast that deliver an incredibly flavorful, protein-packed vegetarian main course the whole family will love. The combination of vegetables in this recipe is specifically selected to minimize FODMAP stacking (the different vegetables have differing FODMAP profiles). I have included a bit of cauliflower, but if you are sensitive to the FODMAP Mannitol, please sub this out.

Ingredients: Vegetables

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1 leek, green part only, chopped

1 bunch green onions, green part only, chopped

2 cups broccoli florets (top part only)

1 cup cauliflower florets or chopped carrots (use cauliflower only if you can tolerate some mannitol)

1 cup Brussels sprouts, cut in half if they are large

2 large leaves kale, central stem removed and roughly chopped

2 small Japanese eggplant, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds

2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped (optional but delicious without being hot)

2 small zucchini, diced

Ingredients: Seasoning

1/2 cup roasted and salted macadamia nuts

1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds

1/2 cup nutritional yeast

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 generous pinch of cayenne pepper (optional but adds a nice kick)

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the leaves from the stems of the kale and discard the stems. Wash and spin dry the leaves. Remove the seeds and chop the jalapeno (removing the seeds removes the heat!) Wash and chop the other vegetables. Note: If you are not including the cauliflower, please add 1 cup of broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and/or chopped carrots instead.

(2) Massage kale: Put kale leaves in a mixing bowl or in the roasting pan and drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over them. Use your hands to massage the kale to soften it up and coat all the leaves with the oil. Add all other vegetables except the zucchini. Set aside.

(3) Prepare the seasoning: In your blender (or mini food processor) combine the macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, 4 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Blend/pulse for about 30 seconds until it turns into a fine meal. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed and pulse again to break down all the nuts.

(4) Combine: Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on the vegetables and toss well to distribute as the seasoning as evenly as possible.

(5) Cook: Spread the vegetables out in the roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss the vegetables to ensure even baking. Add the zucchini. Toss again. Return to the oven and bake for 10 - 15 minutes more, or until vegetables are tender and starting to turn deep brown.

Make-ahead note: Once completely cooled, store leftovers in an airtight container for 2-3 days. They heat up very nicely in a 325-degree F oven for 15 minutes or in the microwave.

(6) Plate and serve: Serve as a vegetarian main course or side dish as is or top with a soft-boiled egg for even more protein.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Recipe note: I use Diamond Crystal Kosher salt in all my recipes because it has a wonderful flat and crisp flake that tastes delicious. It is also the least salty salt available so you can use it more liberally as a seasoning than you can table salt or sea salt. If you use another type of salt, you may need to reduce the amount so it is not over-salted.

Crispy “Cheesy” Keto Kale Chips (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 20 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Vegan • Serves 5 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-6

I was having lunch at Sauce Whole Foods Cafe in Ashland, Oregon and they served the most delicious kale chips alongside the salad. So, of course, I had to attempt to recreate those kale chips in a low FODMAP version for you! These chips are delicious, crispy, and super flavorful with an almost “cheesy” taste (even though they are 100% dairy free.) This is a great twist on the classic kale chip recipe that I think you will love. These kale chips are not only a superfood (thanks to the kale), but they are also loaded with protein (thanks to the nuts and nutritional yeast used in the coating). They make a great appetizer, side, or even sprinkled on top of your favorite salad. I was truly tempted to eat them all they were so delicious.

Ingredients

One bunch kale (about 10 ounces of leaves after stripping the stalks)

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1/4 cup roasted and salted macadamia nuts

2 tablespoons raw sunflower seeds

5 tablespoons nutritional yeast

1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 generous pinch of cayenne pepper (optional but adds a nice kick)

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Cut the leaves from the stems of the kale and discard the stems. Wash and spin dry the leaves then cut into bite-size pieces.

(2) Massage kale: Put kale leaves in a large mixing bowl and drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over them. Use your hands to massage the kale to soften it up and coat all the leaves with the oil. Set aside.

(3) Prepare the “cheesy blend”: In your blender (or mini food processor) combine the macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Blend/pulse for about 30 seconds until it turns into a fine meal. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if needed and pulse again to break down all the nuts.

(4) Combine: Sprinkle the “cheesy blend” mixture on the kale and toss with your hands to distribute as evenly as possible, working it into the leaves until they are thoroughly coated.

(5) Prepare to cook the kale: Divide the kale between 2 large rimmed baking sheets and spread it into one layer, making sure the leaves aren’t overlapping so they can get extra crispy. You may need to bake them in two batches depending on the size of your baking sheets.

(6) Cook the kale: Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss/turn the kale to ensure even baking. Bake for 5-10 minutes more, or until chips are crispy and golden brown. Watch carefully to be sure they don’t burn!

(7) Serve: Let chips cool slightly before serving. Serve as an appetizer, a topping for your salad, or a side dish.

Make-ahead note: Once completely cooled, store leftovers in an airtight container for 2-3 days. They will get less crispy after 24 hours, so eat them as close to cooking as possible.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Three Cheese and Spinach Frittata (Low FODMAP)

15 Minutes prep • 45 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Vegetarian • Serves 4 - 6 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

This delicious dish is reminiscent of Greek Spanakopita but it’s much simpler to make and it’s a great way to get more spinach in your diet (very high in lots of great nutrients!) Not a classic frittata (has fewer eggs), spinach, feta, parmesan, and creamy cottage cheese come together to make a perfect savory breakfast, vegetarian main course, or hearty side. Thanks to three eggs and three different cheeses, this recipe has plenty of protein and flavor. You can serve it alongside a separate main course or pair it with one of my green salads. Leftovers are great cold, at room temperature, or you can heat them up nicely in the oven or microwave. Get ready for a new regular on your weekly menu or a new guest at your next brunch.

Ingredients

10-ounce package frozen spinach, thawed and drained

3 eggs, lightly beaten

2 cups lactose-free cottage cheese

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/4 cup butter, melted

1 tablespoon green onions (green part only)

1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese

1/4 teaspoons ground red pepper flakes (and here’s a nifty red pepper flake grinder!)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper or to taste

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 1 1/2 quart casserole dish. Grate the parmesan cheese. Remove the spinach from the package and put it on a plate. Thaw at room temperature or in the microwave in 30-second increments. Once the spinach is thawed, break it into pieces and squeeze the liquid out of the spinach.

(2) Mix the ingredients: In a mixing bowl combine the eggs, cottage cheese, drained spinach, feta cheese, melted butter, and green onions. Stir well to combine.

(3) Bake: Put the mixture into the prepared dish and put in the oven. Bake for 25 minutes. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese. Bake for another 10 - 15 minutes until the top starts to brown around the edges and the center is set.

(5) Plate and serve: Serve warm with chopped green onions, red pepper flakes, or a few grinds of black pepper. Or, let cool, and serve at room temperature or even cold. It’s all good!

Sweet and Savory Roasted Brussels Sprouts (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 25 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-4

Roasting Brussels sprouts is a wonderful way to bring out their naturally sweet flavor. And, when roasted with a little bacon and the sweet and tangy taste of raisins and cranberries, the combination is really delicious. The sprouts turn out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The raisins and cranberries get wonderfully charred and chewy. Altogether this is a fantastic combination.

Spinach Alfredo (Low FODMAP)

15 Minutes prep • 15 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Vegetarian • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Step 1

While you can pour this amazing sauce over pasta, it definitely doesn’t need pasta, or anything else, to be a highlight of your meal. Enjoy it on its own or serve it with my Easy and Delicious Pork Chops or really just about anything! Spinach is a wonderful accompaniment to the creamy sauce and tangy cheese. And when you use enough spinach it’s the perfect carrier to hold every drop of the creamy cheesy sauce.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter

2 leeks, green part only

2 tablespoons lactose-free cream cheese (optional but makes the sauce thicker)

1/2 cup cream

1/2 cup lactose-free half-and-half or whole milk (or use all cream)

1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

16 ounces fresh spinach, washed, and stems removed

Directions

(1) Prepare: Wash and remove the long stems from the spinach. Grate the parmesan cheese. Chop the leek greens.

(2) Cook the leeks: Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the leek greens and cook for about 5 minutes until they are softened and beginning to brown.

(3) Finish the sauce: Add the cream and half and half (if using), and bring. it just to a simmer. Add the cream cheese (if using) and the parmesan cheese and stir until the cream cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you may let the sauce cool and then reheat when ready to finish and serve.

(4) Finish: Add the spinach to the cream mixture and fold it over and over until the leaves are coated. As it heats, the spinach will cook down and settle into the sauce. Keep cooking and turning until all the spinach is submerged and tender. Taste for seasoning and add salt or pepper if needed.

(5) Plate and serve: Serve warm with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese over the top.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

Mushroom Pilaf (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 15 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

This is a wonderful plant-forward substitute for rice or pasta to serve with a main course that wants a “bed” of something to be served on. It’s incredibly flavorful and loaded (of course) with plenty of good plant ingredients. You can adjust the seasoning to complement what you’re serving — going with lemon, butter, dill, and parsley for seafood or a more robust collection of rosemary, thyme, and sage to go with chicken or beef.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1 tablespoon butter (or you can use all olive oil if you are very sensitive to lactose)

1 teaspoon each dry rosemary, thyme, and sage

1 bunch green onions (green part only), chopped

1 large or 2 medium leeks (green part only), chopped

4 cups oyster mushrooms, chopped

2 stalks celery, with leaves, chopped

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or more to taste)

1/4 cup Pine nuts or chopped walnuts (or both!)

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

(1) Prepare: Chop the leek greens, green onions, mushrooms, and celery.

(2) Cook the veggies: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the seasonings and let them toast in the oil for about 30 seconds. Then add the green onion greens and leek greens and cook for a couple of minutes until tender. Stir in the mushrooms and celery and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms are starting to brown, 7-10 minutes.

(3) Finish: Add the pine nuts or walnuts and red pepper flakes and cook for another minute or two. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you may let the vegetables cool, then reheat when you are near ready to serve.

(4) Plate and serve: Serve warm with a bit of butter melting into the top as a vegetarian main dish or top with whatever you like. Add a grind or two of red pepper flakes (here’s a nifty red pepper flake grinder.)

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!
