Stuffed Pita Breads – low Fodmap and gluten-free
If you can find some gluten-free pita breads, you can basically stuff them with anything you like. Last night I had left over ragu sauce that Adriano had made in the weekend and rather than have pasta again, I made these stuffed pita breads with the sauce, a coleslaw I made up, tomato and cheese. They were great and I even have one leftover for lunch today, which I am looking forward to. If you have no problems with sorbitol, you could add some mashed up avocado with lactose-free yogurt or sour cream like I did. I didn't add that until after taking them out of the oven so it didn't get cooked.

Spinach and Cheese Quesadillas – Low Fodmap and Gluten-Free
I enjoy many different cuisines and Mexican is among my favourites. If you eat low Fodmap, you do have to watch out for some of their ingredients like legumes and too much dairy but it is still possible to get the richness of the Mexican food while staying true to the low Fodmap diet. It's not hard to find gluten-free tortillas which are suitable for us these days, and cottage cheese and mature cheese are on the permitted lists as long as we don't overindulge. This is an easy, delicious dish which wouldn't go amiss even for guests and it seriously took me about ten minutes to put together. Oh, and it's vegetarian. Spinach and Cheese Quesadillas - Low Fodmap and Gluten-Free Print Author: Suzanne Perazzini Serves: 4 Ingredients 8 large gluten-free tortillas ⅔ cup cottage cheese 100 gms baby spinach leaves ½ an avocado (only if you have no problem with sorbitol), diced ½ a can of corn kernels, drained 1 tomato, chopped small 1 spring onion (green part … [Read more...] about Spinach and Cheese Quesadillas – Low Fodmap and Gluten-Free
Spicy Cajun Chicken – Low Fodmap and Gluten-Free
If you often have guests over to eat but you don't always have a lot of time to prepare something delicious, then this recipe is for you. My inspiration came from one of Jamie Oliver's recipes in his 15 Minute Meals cookbook. I have, of course, made it low Fodmap and gluten-free. As always with Jamie's "quick" meals, it took longer than he says but it was still doable in under half an hour and was quite delicious. I am sure your guests would not complain. Jamie served the meal with fried okra so I went hunting for it and found it. This is the first time I have tried it and it was pleasant but without a lot of taste. By the way, we can only have 4 pods. Perhaps fried zucchini would be an alternative if you can't find any okra. Spicy Cajun Chicken Print Author: Suzanne Perazzini Serves: 4 Ingredients For the salsa Can of corn kernels Bunch of coriander (chopped roughly) 1 red chilli (chopped finely) 2 spring onions (green part only, chopped up) 3 ripe tomatoes ( cut up … [Read more...] about Spicy Cajun Chicken – Low Fodmap and Gluten-Free
Gift and Broken Windows
A Simple Way of Life On our way to my uncle’s fishing lodge and game farm on the Zambezi River in Zambia, we passed through a village in the middle of nowhere. It was dusty with people wandering about among the very strange (by our standards) shops and market stalls. (Sorry about the quality of the photos. I had to photograph photos since they were not digital.) Broken Windows We stopped to buy some produce, had several conversations with various villagers and then were on our way over bumpy, at times almost impassable roads on our trip to the lodge. Among the many stories my uncle was to tell us during that visit, he mentioned the village school which the government had decided to bless with glass in its previously open windows. Within a week, all the windows were broken. This is a good example of a government’s misguided efforts to help its people but also of the value of deciding yourself what you need and then applying some effort for the acquisition of it. The villagers … [Read more...] about Gift and Broken Windows
Chicken Cornbread Pie
If you love Mexican food but have to eat low Fodmap, all is not lost. The main part that is an issue is usually the sauce which contains onion and garlic. So, we have to make everything from scratch and can't rely on bought processed foods. But it really isn't hard. Check out this layered pie with a polenta base and chicken topping. Chicken Cornbread Pie - low Fodmap Print Author: Suzanne Perazzini Ingredients For the base ½ cup cornmeal (polenta) 1 tsp sugar ½ tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder 1 egg 60gms/2oz butter, melted ⅓ cup lactose-free milk 1 cup creamed corn 2 tbsp chopped red chillies For the topping 2 cups shredded cooked chicken 300mls/10oz tomato sauce (see below) 1 cup grated mature cheese 1 tbsp red chillies, chopped 1 tbsp chopped parsley For the sauce 1 can of diced tomatoes 2 tsp garlic-infused oil 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp cumin powder ½ tsp chilli powder 1 tsp sugar Salt to taste Method For the base Heat oven to … [Read more...] about Chicken Cornbread Pie
