The Best Low FODMAP Recipes | Feed Me Phoebe (2024)

For a more up-to-date and complete collection of healthy low FODMAP diet recipes, grab your copy of SIBO Made Simple–it has over 90 low FODMAP recipes that are also anti-inflammatory, with modifications for low histamine, yeast and candida-friendly and vegetarian.

When I first put together this round-up of the best low FODMAP recipes in 2016, I did so because of popular demand.


I hadn’t yet had the necessity to omit this complex system of carbohydrates, and frankly, I thought the prospect sounded pretty miserable.

As always, the best way to tempt the universe is to tell the powers that be that you will not be signing up for a particular trail up Health Mountain. And sure enough, flash forward to earlier this year when I was diagnosed with SIBO and told that my best shot of eradicating this bacteria from my life was to take on a low FODMAP diet, start digestive enzymes for IBS, and attempt to heal my gut.

I’ve learned so much about cooking for a low FODMAP diet since then, which I wrote about in this post. And as of recently, I officially have my very own cookbook with over 90+ low FODMAP recipes and 12 weeks worth of batch cooking meal plans!

The laundry list of items to remove during a low FODMAP elimination diet on the surface makes as little sense as a Rihanna-Paul McCartney collaboration, and I assumed it would also be ten times less awesome. To my surprise though, once I got the hang of it, my meals were no less delicious at home. And this list of recipes for condiments, snacks, easy dinners, rice and grains that I already had in my back pocket, thanks to all your requests, proved to be an invaluable resource.

Many of the dishes below are not completely FODMAP-free. After all, for the rest of us omnivores, garlic and onion are pretty much always VIP’s at the party. But I’ve included notes on what to sub. And I think you’ll find these flavor combinations to be a breath of fresh air.

Having received many meal plans from doctors, I can say that low FODMAP recipes recommended by nutritionists and medical professionals can often leave much to be desired for those of us more foodie, culinary-minded souls.

I hope that the lowFODMAPfolks out therefind this recipe round-up helpful. And for the rest of you, simply ignore the notes, and feast on some amazing inspiration from the bloggers around the web that are constantly inspiring me!

Lastly, I’ve added many new low FODMAP dishes to my repertoire in the last few months–for the most up to date offerings, check out the recipe database here. In addition, as my gift to you, I’ve created a brand new FREE e-book for you to download!
