Low FODMAP Recipes

There are some great recipes out there that adhere to the LFM (Low FODMAP) dietary guidelines, and we will highlight a couple of them. Today, we have our versatile Stuffed Salmon and our Good Morning Oatmeal recipe with a sprinkle of berries and banana. Our Stuffed Salmon recipe is not only easy-to-make but a delicious lunch or dinner option. And our oatmeal recipe will leave you satisfied and will tide you over until lunchtime. So let’s get started.

First up, Stuffed Salmon:

Serves 2:

5. 1 1/2 tsp dried basil 
6. Sprinkle of fennel seeds – a little goes a long way.
