Christy,
Here is a fact sheet on using a slow cooker. I have never heard about the 6-7 hour rule, but you do want to be sure meat is throughly cooked before eating it! Here is a temperature guide as well. http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/ResourcesForYou/Consumers/UCM260394.pdf http://www.fsis.usda.gov/FACTSheets/Focus_On_Slow_Cooker_Safety/index.asp

Most cheese is low in lactose unless it’s a particularly wet cheese such as ricotta and cottage cheese–so many are allowed on the elimination phase of the diet in reasonable portion size. Cheese is high in fat another potential IBS trigger so portion control is key.

This looks yummy! I’m looking for good FODMAP crockpot recipes, but I am a bit afraid of the crock pot! I have two questions –
1. I have read that you need to cook for at least 6 (or 7?) hours on low to adequately kill all of the bacteria – yet your recipe calls for 3 hours. Can you explain how this works to cook the food?
2. I was surprised to see the reference to cheese – is this just if the person can tolerate it? I’m in the elimination phase, so I’m avoiding all cheese for now.
Thanks for all of your great work – you are helping so many people!

We just ordered a slow cooker and my husband’s job will be FODMAPs slow-cooker meals… so excited. I’ll send him here Kate 😉

In reply to Susan S.. So glad you liked the Tomato Lime Chicken--I definitely have some more GF recipes on the blog so check past posts. Hope the GF diet helps your son. Fortunately there are so many good gluten free alternatives that taste good.

Hi Kate! I found your website through a mutual WHS classmate. And I made this recipe last night because I’m trying to reduce gluten in my family’s diet (my son has neuro issues, and I’m experimenting with seeing if changing up his diet helps him). Anyway, this Santa Fe Tomato Lime Chicken was totally de-licious! So, so good!! I left out the cheese because I have a food sensitivity to dairy. (Funny, for years I thought I had IBS, until I was tested and eliminiated dairy.)

Great to see a little bit of what you’re doing these days. Excellent!

Janet–I served it with leftover coconut rice and butternut squash BUT…I would think a side rice dish and favorite veggie or salad would work.

I am absolutely a rule follower but I find that the more I cook, the more comfortable I have become in the kitchen so I think I may start making some changes to the recipes I’ve collected! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
