Low FODMAP Easy Lunch 1
28 May 26
Ingredients: Chicken (shredded), rice vermicelli, vegetables, mayo, extra something
Chicken - 130g
Rice vermicelli, as much as my bowl allows, then I boil my kettle and heat it up like ramen (but uh drain the water after lol)
Vegetables - today 1/2 cup of diced cucumbers (fructose guys), 3/4 cup of cauliflower rice (fructan dude), shredded carrots (75g is a serving) would work too I just find them annoying.
Mayo- I use kewpie, as much as my heart desires (this was a texture mistake, honestly 2-3 table spoons you can taste it without making it such a slimy mess) People say kewpie is better tasting but I am unconvinced.
Extra - Maple mustard only a table spoon so I dont worry about the additives but mustard has GOS if anyone was curious, could add more. Also a big balsamic vinegar (unfortunately another fructose guy but the other vinegars do not have this issue) advocate if this sounds gross. Or find your own we all have different tastes, this is about the ease.
Less cauliflower means more sesame seed i have to keep that in mind for next time
Cost efficiency: I get a rotisserie chicken and split it into multiple 130g portions to use throughout the week. I get someone I know with a costco card to get the big bags of cauliflower rice and I split that up. I buy one cucumber which after I julienne up with a mandolin lasts over several meals. Rice vermicelli is available at my local dollar store.
Nutritional value: checks off 2 servings of vegetables (out of the recommended 5)
1 big load of carbs for your beautiful and tormented brain (fat in the mayo is for your brain too)
2 servings of protein (which you only need 2-3 which is crazy if you consider all of the protein products out now, that being said it would be different depending on your activity level)
