Today, I thought I’d share one of my favorite recipes from  the Low-FODMAP 28-Day Plan…Shrimp Cakes with Lime Chili Aioli! Super yum! The lime aioli is so delicious.  Admittedly, I just used a commercial brand of mayonnaise instead of the homemade in the book and added a bit of lime juice, lime zest, paprika and […]

Hello Everyone! Today’s recipe was inspired from our August trip to Nantucket. Millie’s is a great restaurant we pass biking our way to Madaket Beach.  Millie’s makes some awesome quesadillas filled with fresh seafood.  I opted to make a lower FODMAP version at home..  a grilled corn tortilla topped with grilled shrimp and pineapple salsa! Can […]

My friend, Sophie, posted a teriyaki style meatball recipe recently on Facebook–and well that just got me totally craving teriyaki chicken meatballs.  So, I made some…low FODMAP style, of course. I have never been a fan of ground beef.  Not sure why that is but…it just never appealed to me. But, I love using ground […]

Although it’s not a typical Bostonian staple,  a bowl of warm grits is truly one of my favorite comfort foods. Especially when made with a little milk and cheddar cheese. MMMMmmm….mmmm. A big bowl of steaming grits was one of my favorite pre-exam foods from back at my college days at Emory University in Atlanta, […]

Happy April Fool’s Day!  I have a habit of fooling my husband on April Fool’s Day ….but he snuck out for an early flight this morning so I couldn’t ‘get him’ this year!  One year I had my friend who was also our insurance agent send my husband a fake itemized bill for $4,000 for […]

Well…hello everyone.  I hope you all had a great weekend and are geared up for a happy week ahead. I have been busy. I hosted a FODMAP dietitian workshop with my colleague, Patsy Catsos in San Diego last Thursday.  I love teaching dietitians about the low FODMAP diet and this San Diego group was a […]

Let’s talk lasagna. Kids love it and so does my Italian husband.  So…I decided to give a FODMAP friendly version a whirl. Typically lasagna is made with wheat rich pasta but you can find wheat free lasagna noodles at most large grocery stores. I purchased some brown rice lasagna noodles, a couple cans of plain […]

One of my favorite dishes in the world and one that my Italian father-in-law Tony loves equally as well–if I had to guess–is Shrimp Scampi. Am I right, Tony? This version is relatively easy to prepare –and most of the work happens in your oven.   I love recipes that I can prepare pretty much […]

Most people think anything spicy is a no go for people with IBS–but that is not always the case.  Some of my clients enjoy hot and spicy foods quite nicely. If you happen to be a spicy food aficionado –then you might like these hot balls….Buffalo Chicken Meatballs.  OMG–they are delish! Don’t they look yummy? […]
