I don't think you really want that......

But the cooking part..... So easy !!!!

Just so you know I only started cooking after VSG as a matter of survival. Most here have waaay more cooking experience!

Yum!

I just picked up some zuchhini and mushrooms (trying to find low FODMAP veggies) and am not sure what spices to use on them.  I guess salt & pepper prob are good (no onions or garlic allows :()

I've only recently in the last month or so learned about the term FODMAP as I am interested in it because my mom has IBS.

It would be interesting to find out if small amounts of granulated garlic and onion powder are ok/tolerable. In the quantities we eat (and my mom) a little bit of those dried versions go a long way as they are very concentrated in flavor.

One of my fav quick sauces is soy sauce mixed with Coleman's mustard of just straight up Ponzu which is basically soy sauce and citrus either lemon or lime.

Another is something I learned in Italy..... sauteed veggies, S&P..... drizzle of EVOO and sprinkle of parmigiano..... not sure how that fairs FODMAP wise......

OMG, had to google FODMAP. All these damn acronyms are hard to keep track of! FODMAP is interesting. I didn't know about the water drawing potential of those sugars. Hope it works for your mom. I always thought it was that the lactose and sugars were just harder for people with IBS to process. Learn something new every day!

Beef looks awesome, btw!

FODMAP free: What works for me is to saute some garlic / onions (large chunks) in oil, remove them completely and use that oil/.fat to saute my food. Adding granulated garlic - no go..ugh...

Thyme enhances the earthy taste of the mushrooms. Basil goes great with zucchini. Too bad about the garlic; that would have been the crowning touch.
