Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins (Low FODMAP)

20 Minutes prep • 25 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Makes 12 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1 - 3

Mother’s Day always calls for something special. So this year for Mother’s Day I decided Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins would be just the thing! The rich cheesecake center surrounded by tender blueberries and a sprinkle of streusel topping makes these muffins something extra special. They are a bit fussy to make (not hard, just a few extra steps and extra pans) but they are worth the effort.

Ingredients: Muffins

1 stick salted butter, at room temperature

1 cup superfine granulated sugar (this is not powdered sugar)

2 large eggs at room temperature

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 cup lactose-free sour cream or yogurt

1/4 cup heavy cream or lactose-free whole milk

1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour

1/2 cup gf jules baking flour

1 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Grated rind of two lemons (Meyer preferred)

Ingredients: Cheesecake filling

4 ounces lactose-free cream cheese, at room temperature

1/3 cup superfine granulated sugar

2 tablespoons beaten egg (this is less than one egg)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Ingredients: Streusel

1/4 cup gluten-free flour

1/4 cup light brown sugar

3 tablespoons salted butter, chilled

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a standard (1 dozen) muffin tin with baking cups.

(2) Make the cheesecake layer: In the smallest bowl of your stand mixer, beat the cream cheese, egg, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside (and refrigerate if it will be more than a few minutes).

(3) Make the streusel topping: In the bowl of your food processor, combine the flour, sugar, and butter. Pulse until the butter is evenly distributed in the dry ingredients.

(4) Make muffin batter: Beat butter and sugar on high for 5 minutes, scraping down the bowl at least twice during the beating. Add eggs one at a time, beating for about 1 minute after each addition and scraping down the bowl a few times during beating. Add vanilla and baking powder and beat for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the sour cream or yogurt, the milk or cream, and the flour, and beat until there are no lumps, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as necessary.

(3) Add the fruit: Fold in the lemon zest along with the blueberries.

(4) Layer the batter and streusel: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to scoop a generous heaping tablespoon of the muffin banner into each muffin cup. Use the back of the spoon to spread the batter to cover the bottom of the muffin cup. Next, add about half that amount of the cheesecake filling as the next layer. Spread it out to cover the better. Using about half the streusel mixture, sprinkle the cheesecake layer lightly with streusel. Add one more scoop of muffin batter to the top, spread it out, and top with the remaining streusel.

(8) Bake: Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a blueberry-free spot on the muffin comes out clean.

(9) Finish: Remove from the oven when done and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

(10) Serve: Enjoy them warm, or if you’re not going to eat them right away, cool completely and store them in an airtight container in the freezer. Thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

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.

Mediterranean Chicken Skewers (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 20 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

Delicious and tender, Greek seasoned chicken skewers you can grill in the oven. Top with my Tzatziki sauce and a side salad and you’ve got a delicious and healthy meal. Change up the vegetables you put on the skewers according to what you have on hand (zucchini and summer squash would work great). If you marinate the chicken ahead of time you’ll get the best flavor, but 10 minutes of marination is enough if you’re pressed for time. Make these quick and easy chicken skewers for your family and friends. They are sure to be a hit.

Ingredients

1/2 cup garlic-infused olive oil

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon crushed chipotle chilis or chipotle chile powder

1 teaspoon maple syrup

1 tablespoon low-FODMAP hot sauce

1 tablespoon lemon zest

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 1/2 - 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces

My Delicious Low FODMAP Tzatziki sauce for serving

Directions

(1) Prepare the chicken: This step is optional but results in a more flavorful and tender chicken. Remove chicken from the package, and put it in one layer on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides of each piece lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight.

(2) Prepare: Make the Tzatziki sauce a day ahead if you have time, if not just make it before you start prepping the meal. Make the marinade. Cut the chicken and toss in a bowl with the marinade, stirring to combine. Let sit for 10 minutes or several hours if you have time. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper (for easy clean-up)

(3) Prepare the skewers: Load the skewers, alternating chicken and vegetables so they come out approximately even. Arrange the skewers on the prepared baking sheet.

(4) Bake: Bake for 20 minutes, until lightly charred and cooked through (165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer)

(5) Plate and serve: Serve with plenty of my Tzatziki sauce and a side salad.

Umami Nut and Seed Crackers (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes Prep • 50 Minutes Cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Dairy Free • Vegan • Serving size 3 - 4 crackers • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-4

If you know me, you know I always have seed crackers on hand. And if I’m running low, you’ll find me in the kitchen whipping up another batch! They are the perfect substitute for flour-based crackers and they add a ton of healthy ingredients and plants to your diet. In fact, this recipe includes 15 different plant-based ingredients! I have published a couple of versions of this recipe before, but because I make them so often, the recipe evolves and improves each time. So, I have to share this latest version with you!

Ingredients

3/4 cup raw sunflower seeds

3/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds

1 cup ground macadamia nuts

1/4 cup chia seeds (I use white but you can use any color. These are important - they hold everything together.)

1/2 cup whole flax seeds (any color is fine)

1 cup sliced almonds (or finely chopped)

1/4 cup flax seed meal

1/4 cup hulled hemp seeds (also called hemp hearts)

1/4 cup sesame seeds

1/4 cup psyllium husk powder (adds fiber and helps the crackers hold together better)

1/3 cup nutritional yeast (adds protein, fiber, B vitamins, and that good umami flavor)

1 1/2 cups hot water

2 tablespoons olive oil (I use Tuscan Herb olive oil for even more flavor)

1 heaping tablespoon dried thyme

1 heaping tablespoon dried rosemary

1 heaping teaspoon cumin powder

1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons Kosher salt

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Lay parchment on two large, rimmed baking sheets. Grind the macadamia nuts in your food processor until they are a fine meal, but not quite turning to nut butter. Chop the almonds if you aren’t using pre-sliced almonds.

(2) Mix ingredients: Combine all dry ingredients (including ground macadamia nuts) in a mixing bowl and stir well. Add the water and the olive oil and stir again. Let sit (and stir a couple of times) for a minute or two until most of the liquid is absorbed.

(3) Prepare to bake: Lay a sheet of parchment paper out on a cutting board. Put half the mixture on the parchment sheet then lay another sheet of parchment on top of the mixture. Use your hands to smooth it out as EVENLY and thinly as you can. You want the entire amount to be as close to the same thickness as possible so you don’t overcook/undercook parts of your tray. Transfer the whole thing to your baking sheet and remove the top sheet of parchment.

(4) Score the crackers: Before baking, use a dull knife to score the entire sheet into a grid of about 3-inch square pieces by cutting 3 lines down the length of the pan and 4 or 5 lines across the narrow part of the pan. This helps the crackers cook more evenly and makes it easier to break them into pieces once cooked and cooled.

(5) Bake: Bake for 35 – 50 minutes (depending on how thick they are) until crispy but not burned. Swap your pans from top to bottom in your oven halfway through baking. To check for doneness, lift the parchment up and see if the cracker cracks or bends. If it bends instead of cracking, then cook it a few minutes longer. When done, remove from the oven and let cool. When cool, break into crackers.

(6) Troubleshooting: If your crackers are not all the same thickness some sections may be a bit chewy while others are crisp. Remove from the oven, let cool, and break all the crisp parts off leaving the thicker parts on the pan. Then, simply put them back in the oven and cook for another 5 minutes or so.

(7) Plate and serve: Eat your seed crackers plain as a crisp and flavorful snack or serve them with your favorite cheese, hummus, tapenade, nut butter, or whatever you like.

(8) Storage: Crackers will stay crisp and fresh if stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks (but they are unlikely to last that long because they’re so good!)

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.

Easy One Pan Creamy Skillet Enchiladas (Low FODMAP)

15 Minutes prep • 30 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 6 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-2

This is an easy and delicious one-pan weeknight meal that makes great leftovers for lunch the next day! You can also double the recipe and serve it for a crowd. Made all in one pan, these skillet enchiladas are a wonderful blend of smoky flavor and creamy sauce. Using a super-flavorful cheese such as extra-sharp cheddar or gruyere (or you can use the Trader Joe’s blend of both) adds to the depth of flavor making this dish a little more special.

Ingredients

1 cup leek greens, chopped

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

2 teaspoons Smoke n Sanity Essence of Garlic Salt (use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

12 ounces of my Red Enchilada Sauce (or use canned if you can tolerate a bit of onion/garlic)

8 ounces canned diced green chilies

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

6 gluten-free corn tortillas

1 1/2 cups extra sharp cheddar or gruyere cheese, grated

Lime wedges, avocado, and/or lactose-free sour cream for serving

Directions

(1) Prepare the chicken: This step is optional but results in a more flavorful and tender chicken. Remove chicken from the package, and put it in one layer on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides of each piece lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight.

(2) Prepare: Make my Red Enchilada Sauce if not using canned. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Chop the leek greens and cilantro. If the chicken breasts are large, cut them through horizontally to make two thinner pieces out of each large piece.

(3) Cook the chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, combine the leek greens, smoked paprika, essence of garlic salt, diced green chilies, enchilada sauce, and 1/2 cup water. Stir to blend a bit, then add the chicken. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat then cover and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes until the chicken is just cooked and shreds easily.

(4) Shred the chicken: Remove the chicken to a cutting board and shred it with two forks. Return the chicken to the pan and add the cream. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken. Stir in the cilantro.

(5) Finish: Arrange the tortillas on top of the chicken. Top with the cheese. Bake in preheated oven for 10 - 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

(6) Plate and serve: Serve with lime wedges, avocado slices, and lactose-free sour cream.

Sheet Pan Lemon Dill Chicken with Root Veggies (Low FODMAP)

20 Minutes prep • 30 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

Vibrant color and delicious Mediterranean flavor make this dish a perfect one-pan meal for the family or a dinner party alike. You can prep the veggies and marinate the chicken ahead of time to make your meal prep fast so you can relax. Swap the root veggies around, depending on what you have on hand. No need to worry if you don’t have exactly what the recipe calls for.

Ingredients: Marinade

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Ingredients: Chicken & Veggies

1 1/2 - 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced horizontally if large

10 small new potatoes, quartered

1 medium sweet potato, cubed (I used a Hawaiian purple variety)

2 carrots, sliced

3 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil, divided

3 tablespoons lemon juice, divided

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup Castelvetrano or Kalamata olives

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

One lemon, sliced and seeded

Fresh dill, chopped, for serving

Directions

(1) Prepare the chicken: This step is optional but results in a more flavorful and tender chicken. Remove chicken from the package, and put it in one layer on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides of each piece lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight. If the breasts are very large, slice them horizontally before salting.

(2) Make the marinade: Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the chicken and turn to be sure all pieces are coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes — or up to overnight.

(3) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Slice and see the lemon. Chop the root vegetables into fairly small pieces so they will cook through quickly. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Spread in one even layer on a large, rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you may keep the chicken marinating, and set the veggies aside in the refrigerator until you’re ready to bake.

(4) Bake: Lay the chicken on top of the vegetables and put two slices of lemon on each chicken breast. Sprinkle over the olives, and feta cheese. Roast for about 15 minutes then check the chicken for doneness with an instant-read thermometer. The thickest part of the chicken will be 165 degrees F when it is done. If not yet done, roast for another 5 - 10 minutes until the chicken is just done. If the vegetables are not yet tender, remove the chicken from the pan to a warm plate and cover. Toss the vegetables in the pan and roast until done.

(5) Plate and serve: Serve the veggies with the chicken on top. Sprinkle with chopped fresh dill.

Creamy Vegan Wild Rice and Veggie Soup (Low FODMAP)

10 Minutes prep • 35 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Lactose-free • Gluten-free • Vegan • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-5

I used to be one of those people who saw “vegan” and thought “No way, that’s going to be terrible.” Well, that is no longer the case and now that I have embraced a plant-forward approach to much of my cooking, I have started developing vegetarian and vegan recipes worthy of the IBS Game Changer name! This soup is no exception. Super flavorful, creamy, and hearty without any animal products at all! And this soup has 15 different plants in it as written, and you could even throw a few more in there for good measure if you like. I hope you try it and you love it as much as I do.

Ingredients: Creamy Base

1 cup full-fat (unsweetened) coconut milk

1/3 cup activated (aka sprouted) cashews (no more than 40 nuts)

2 tablespoons white miso paste

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Ingredients: Soup

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

1 bunch green onions, green part only, chopped

1 celery stalk, chopped

1 large carrot, chopped

8 ounces oyster mushrooms, chopped

7 ounces (about 1/2 block) Firm Tofu, cubed (optional)

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1 tablespoon dry rosemary

1 tablespoon dry thyme

1 cup canned cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

4 cups water

1 cup raw wild rice blend (about 2 cups cooked)

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon gluten-free soy sauce

4 cups chopped baby spinach, long stems removed (or you can use kale if you prefer)

Red pepper flakes for serving, optional

Directions

(1) Prepare: Cook the rice per package instructions. Chop the green onion greens, celery, carrot, and mushrooms. Drain the tofu (if using).

(2) Make the creamy base: Place the coconut milk, cashews, miso paste, and Dijon mustard in a blender or mini food processor and process until smooth. Set aside.

(3) Saute the vegetables: Heat the garlic-infused olive oil in a medium-large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Add the green onion greens, celery, carrot, mushrooms, and salt. Stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.

(4) Make the soup: Add the rosemary and thyme to the pan and let sizzle for about 30 seconds. Then add the cannellini beans, black pepper, and water. Stir again. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

(5) Finish: Stir in the creamy base, cooked rice, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, and spinach. Add the cubed tofu (if using). Simmer over low heat until the spinach (or kale) is wilted, about 2 - 5 minutes. Add additional seasoning to taste.

(6) Plate and Serve: Serve with more lemon juice, parsley, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if you like.

Creamy Baked Chicken Meatballs and Pasta (Low FODMAP)

20 Minutes prep • 35 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-2

These chicken meatballs aren't just delicious, they're the perfect combination of tender chicken, aromatic herbs, and savory spices. Baked in one pan alongside vibrant greens and atop creamy pasta, this dish is no ordinary meal. Prepare to indulge in a satisfying one-pan/one-bowl meal that will delight you and your family and nourish your body.

Ingredients

2 pounds ground chicken, pork, or turkey

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 cup leek greens, chopped

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

2 teaspoons Smoke N Sanity Essence of Garlic salt (use code IBSGC 15 for 15% discount)

2 teaspoons dried rosemary

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 - 1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped lemon peel

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

Pinch (or more) Red pepper flakes

12 ounces dry gluten-free pasta such as Delallo Orzo or Quinoa Fusilli

2 cups water or chicken broth (I use Gourmend Low FODMAP Chicken Broth - use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

1/4 cup Miren (rice wine) or dry white wine

1/2 cup heavy cream or canned full-fat coconut milk

3 cups kale, stems removed and leaves chopped, or spinach

1 cup gruyere or cheddar, grated

Directions

(1) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Clean and chop the leek greens and kale (or remove stems from spinach and chop if using that instead).

(2) Season the meat: Combine dijon, leek greens, garlic salt, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and parmesan in a bowl. Once blended, add the chicken and blend well with your hands to combine the seasonings with the meat thoroughly. Roll the meat in tablespoon size balls (will make about 24 meatballs).

Make ahead note: If you aren’t going to cook them right away, put the meatballs in the refrigerator until ready to bake.

(3) Prepare to bake: Combine the olive oil, lemon peel, dill, and red pepper flakes. Spread across the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Lay the meatballs on top of the lemon oil mixture. Bake for about 10 minutes until just starting to get crisp.

(4) Add the pasta: Remove the meatballs from the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Flip each meatball over. Add the dry pasta. Pour over 2 cups of water or chicken broth and the miren or wine. Stir to combine without breaking up the meatballs. Put the chopped kale or spinach on top of the meatballs.

(5) Bake: Bake for 12 - 15 minutes until most, but not all, of the liquid has cooked into the pasta. Remove from the oven and stir the pasta around to prevent it from sticking together. Add the cream, and stir again. then sprinkle the grated cheese over the top. Bake for another 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and the sauce is bubbling around the meatballs.

(6) Plate and serve: Serve topped with fresh dill, basil, and red pepper flakes (optional).

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.

Ginger Sesame Beef (Low FODMAP)

20 Minutes prep • 20 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-3

This recipe works magic on simple flank steak, rendering it as tender as filet mignon. With a miso-based ginger sesame marinade and a savory sauce that bursts with flavor, every bite is simply delicious. Serve it up with steamed rice, some roasted vegetables, and a simple cucumber salad and you’ll have a meal fit for company that’s easy enough to make for the family on a weeknight.

Ingredients: Marinade

2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

2 tablespoons red or white miso paste

1/4 cup gluten-free, low-sodium soy sauce

1 heaping tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and grated

2 teaspoons maple syrup

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon Smoke N Sanity Essence of Garlic Salt (use code IBSGC15 for 15% discount)

2 tablespoons chopped green onion greens

Ingredients: Steak

1 pound flank steak, sliced into 1/4 inch slices

2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

Ingredients: Veggies

1 cup leek greens, chopped

2 - 3 cups broccoli florets

1 medium sweet potato, peeled and chopped

2 medium zucchini, chopped

1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil or garlic-infused olive oil

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Ingredients: Spicy Mayo

1/2 cup mayonnaise (I use avocado Mayonnaise)

1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 teaspoon lime juice

1-2 tablespoons gluten-free, low-sodium soy sauce

Directions

(1) Prepare the beef: This step is optional but results in a more flavorful and tender steak. Remove the steak from the package, and put it on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight.

(2) Marinate the beef: Combine all marinade ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Whisk to combine. Slice the beef and add it to the bowl with the marinade and stir to combine. Set aside for at least 15 minutes. If it’s going to be longer than that, put it in the refrigerator.

(3) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or oil on the surface of the pan. Chop the veggies. Slice the beef in about 1/4-inch thick slices. Steam the rice, if using. Make the spicy mayonnaise.

(4) Roast the vegetables: Toss the chopped vegetables with the olive oil, salt, and pepper on the prepared sheet pan, or in a bowl. Spread the vegetables in one layer on the prepared pan. Put the pan in the oven and roast for about 20 minutes until all vegetables are tender. Toss halfway through to prevent burning.

(5) Cook the beef: In a large frying pan, set over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil. When hot, add about half the sliced and marinated beef to the pan in one layer. As it cooks, use two forks to lay each slice of beef flat in the pan. After about 1 minute of cooking begin flipping the beef slices over. Let brown briefly on the other side, then remove from the pan. Repeat with the remainder of the beef until it is all nicely browned. This should be a quick process to keep the meat tender.

(6) Plate and serve: Serve the roasted veggies and steak with a generous drizzle of spicy mayo overall. If you like, you may serve the steak over rice and the veggies alongside.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can

2 tablespoons white or red miso paste

1/4 cup gluten-free low-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

2 tablespoons chopped green onion greens

Ingredients: Chicken & Veggies

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil

2-3 small sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch slices

2 medium zucchini, quartered

2 medium summer squash, quartered

1 cup oyster mushrooms, chopped

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Directions

(1) Prepare the chicken: This step is optional but results in a more flavorful and tender chicken. Remove chicken from the package, and put it in one layer on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides of each piece lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight.

(2) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Chop green onion greens, peel, and grate the ginger. Peel and slice the sweet potatoes. Quarter the squash and chop the mushrooms. Prepare a rimmed baking sheet by drizzling it with a couple of teaspoons of olive or avocado oil and spreading it evenly over the bottom of the pan.

(3) Make the marinade: In a small mixing bowl, combine the sesame oil, miso paste, soy sauce, ginger, garlic scape powder or Essence of Garlic Salt, maple syrup, chili flakes, and green onion greens. Add the chicken and flip several times to coat and immerse. Let sit in the marinade for about 15 minutes (it’s ok to skip this step if you are pressed for time).

(4) Prepare the veggies: In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet sliced potatoes, quartered squash, and chopped mushrooms. Toss with 2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Spread in one layer on the prepared baking sheet.

(5) Bake: Lay the chicken over the veggies and drizzle the chicken with a bit of the marinade. Sprinkle the chicken with sesame seeds. Bake for 20 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked through (165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part) or when the juices run clear when you cut through the cooked chicken breast.

(6) Plate and serve: Serve the chicken, sweet potatoes, and veggies as is, or over bowls of my Best Coconut Rice.

Ingredients: Waffles

2 cups gluten-free flour

1 teaspoon Kosher salt

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon allspice

2 cups lactose-free milk

2 eggs, at room temperature

1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon orange zest

1/4 cup currents (or raising roughly chopped)

Maple syrup and melted butter for serving

Ingredients: Orange Glaze

3/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon orange juice

1/4 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg (optional)

Directions

(4) Blend the batter: Pour the blended wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until well combined. Fold in the chopped raisins and orange zest. There’s no need to get all the lumps out.

Make-ahead note: At this point, you can let the batter rest while you preheat the waffle iron, or you can cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator for a day or so until you’re ready to cook the waffles. Bring the batter to room temperature before cooking the waffles so the batter will pour. Add additional milk or melted butter if the batter is too thick after chilling.

Sprinkle with grated cheese and cover with the lid again for another minute or until the cheese is melted. (Note: if you don’t have a lid for your skillet, a cookie sheet works just fine.)

Herby Sourdough Baked Chicken (Low FODMAP)

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

This breadcrumb mixture featuring sourdough bread, capers, parsley, and lemon, is equally good on chicken or fish. It’s simple to make the crumb mixture in your food processor, and so easy to use. You can drizzle this chicken with my Easy Hollandaise Sauce, or just serve it as is alongside my Garlic Parmesan Roasted New Potatoes and one of my delicious salads.

Ingredients

4 small or 2 large chicken breasts

3 slices of real sourdough bread

1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley

2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onion greens

1 tablespoon lemon zest (finely grated lemon peel)

1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon more for drizzling

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

(1) Prepare the chicken: If the chicken breasts are quite thick, cut them horizontally to make two thin pieces out of the one thick breast. If you have the time, put the chicken in one layer on a rimmed plate or baking dish. Season both sides of each piece lightly with Kosher salt (about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon per side). Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use, ideally about 4 hours before cooking or overnight.

(2) Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

(3) Make the breadcrumb mixture: Roughly chop the bread slices and parsley, then put the bread, parsley, chives or green onions, lemon zest, capers, salt, and pepper in the bowl of your food processor. Process until the crumb is even and the ingredients are nicely blended together. Add the olive oil and pulse a few times to blend.

(4) Bake the chicken: Press 1/4 of the crumb mixture onto the top and sides of each piece of chicken to coat. Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the extra olive oil. Bake for 20 - 30 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts) until the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F. Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes.

(5) Plate and serve: Serve with a drizzle of my Easy Hollandaise Sauce, or just as is alongside my Garlic Parmesan New Potatoes and one of my delicious salads.

Quick and Easy Hollandaise Sauce (Low FODMAP)

5 Minutes prep • 5 Minutes cook • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Serves 4 • Ok to make ahead: Steps 1-4

Hollandaise Sauce is one of those things that can raise a simple dish to a new level of taste, and visual appeal. It’s remarkably easy to make so don’t let its “fanciness” scare you off. Simple ingredients often produce the best results and this recipe is no exception. To make this sauce, you’ll simply heat the butter until it’s nice and hot, and stream it into the blended egg yolk mixture. Voila, you will have created a velvety smooth sauce you can put over eggs Benedict (or my Waffles Benedict 😊 ), or over steamed or roasted vegetables, grilled fish, or meat, or whatever you like! Feel free to double the recipe if you need more than one cup of Hollandaise.

Ingredients

3 egg yolks, at room temperature

1 tablespoon lemon juice  (or more to taste)

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt

1/2 cup salted butter, melted

Directions

(1) Prepare: Separate the eggs and put the egg yolks in a medium-sized mixing bowl or in the jar of a blender. Add the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt. Whisk until well combined or blend on high for about 5 seconds.

(2) Melt the butter: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it’s quite hot (about 130 degrees F) but not starting to brown. Remove from heat.

(3) Make the sauce: While whisking constantly, slowly pour the hot butter into the egg yolk mixture until all the butter is fully incorporated. If using a blender, slowly pour the hot butter into the egg yolk mixture while the blender is running continuously at medium speed. If using an immersion blender, slowly pour the hot butter into the egg yolk mixture with the immersion blender, in the middle of the mixture, running on medium speed.

(4) Finish: Once all the butter is incorporated and your sauce is smooth, taste and add more salt if needed.

(5) Plate and serve: Drizzle over eggs Benedict (or my waffles Benedict), or over steamed or roasted vegetables, grilled fish or meat, or whatever you like!

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!

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.

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.
