Hey I see lot of great stuff on the r/FODMAPS group on reddit.

Actually a time sensitive issue has come up. If you are good with psyllium husks then this if for you

This acutually came up on r/FODMAPS on reddit. I suggest reading this post which is full of great tips for doing a low FODMAP elimination

In general I find the reddit group very supportive. They often are very supportive of questions where the other may not really have done any research: (Is this low FODMAP?!? [Picture of ingredients]) So it’s a resource that you should be aware of if you are starting out your FODMAP journey. There is lots of recipes and support.

If you are cooking a family meal, and you want to bring the flavours of home, nothing says family dinner like a whole roasted chicken. It’s simple but it really does speak to the home cooked meal. To this day I refuse to order chicken in a restaurant, (even if it is low FODMAP) only because it’s a home meal, not a going out meal. This is a compliment to chicken.

To add a little twist I suggest flattening your chicken. For extra laughs they call this spatchcocking a chicken. It’s now my favourite way to cook chicken. It makes for a simple yet pretty hard to screw up method to cook/eat chicken. This will bring the family dinner to your plate, and bring that wonderful smell of cooking meat to your home.

Add in a couple smashed potatoes and some roasted veg and you have a home cooked family dinner that will feed your soul. All simple to do and all with low FODMAPs.

And nothing is better to feed your soul but chicken soup for the soul…. which you can now make! With the bones of the chicken dinner you just ate! Low FODMAP chicken stock. This gives me immense happiness to fully use the chicken and make stock from the bones. This makes stock plentiful in my house and one of the major reasons I enjoy cooking whole chickens.
