Hey Friends!
Today, is a sponsored recipe post from my friends at Casa de Sante!
Casa de Sante offers a wide variety of delicious low FODMAP staples, check them out here.
I received a flavorful + low FODMAP certified via FODMAP Friendly, Cajun/Creole Seasoning blend from Casa de Sante a few weeks ago. I love having new low FODMAP ingredients to play with in my kitchen. I thought I might try to make a low FODMAP jambalaya but then decided to create a Cajun-spiced veggie burger instead!
My veggie burgers were a huge hit w/ my boys! 🙂
My son keeps asking me to make them again!
The veggie burger recipe is vegetarian (not vegan, as it contains eggs) with a nice blend of tri-color quinoa, chickpeas, oats, gluten free panko + diced red pepper…and of course, Casa de Sante’s Cajun/Creole seasoning. Low FODMAP diet note: Small amounts of canned chickpeas are considered low FODMAP! I included just 1/4 cup chickpeas per veggie burger.
I love a simple, quick and healthy recipe–and this fits the bill. I served the veggie burger with a low FODMAP bagel made from millet! You can top the veggie burger with a slice of Swiss, Cheddar or other suitable low FODMAP cheese too.
Casa de Sante’s Cajun/Creole Seasoning blend is made with a perfect mix of salt, asafoetida, paprika, oregano, basil, white pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper and thyme. A flavorful spice blend with a just a little kick of heat. There are no artificial preservatives or flavors. Of course, there is NO onion & NO garlic.
Here’s my flavorful veggie burger recipe. I hope you give it a try.
