Low FODMAP Chicken Salad

Obviously, I eat a lot of chicken.

3 cooked chicken breasts, diced
1/2 tsp mustard
1 tsp minced ginger
Dallop lactose-free sour cream
Dallop mayonnaise
1 cup grapes, quartered
1 cup walnuts of pecans, diced
2 TBSP lime or lemon juice

Combine all ingredients. Serve over slowly fermented sourdough bread and lettuce. When choosing sourdough make sure it says natural starter, natural yeast, or some such. If it just says “yeast” you won’t be able to verify if it was a slow or quick rise. Only the slowly fermented variety eats away enough of the fructan to be low FODMAP.

Low FODMAP Pear Soup

This soup was ridiculously good! I used the green pears. I think those are called Bartlet. It was fragrant and complex. I forgot to say, once it has cooked, blend it with an immersions blender to make it smooth. I topped with roasted pear and a dollop of sour cream. On the side, I served with sourdough (low fodmap) toasted with cheese.
