5 Satisfying Low FODMAP Snacks: The Savory Edition
If you’re anything like us, sitting at home all day has got you feeling even snackier than usual (yup, we’re coining the term).
Don’t worry Fody friends, we won’t leave you hanging. Today, we’re covering a highly important topic, so please pay attention. Here are our favorite savory low FODMAP snacks that are designed to satisfy, without breaking your low FODMAP diet.
Fody’s Low FODMAP Hummus
Store-bought hummus always goes suspiciously fast. Before you know it, you’re desperately scraping the bottom of the tub with the last piece of pita. The stuff at the store usually isn’t the most IBS-friendly either - it tends to be loaded with garlic, onions, and preservatives that can have painful consequences. For a healthy savory snack (that you can make in bottomless quantities), why not skip the grocery store and make our low FODMAP hummus at home instead?
Low FODMAP Cheese and Crackers
From Brie to quark to pecorino, we outlined a definitive list of the best low FODMAP cheeses in a previous article. As long as you stick to 40g and under, you’re safe to mix, match, and create a delectable cheese platter that’s as easy on the eyes as it is on your stomach. Just remember to opt for rice crackers as your cheese vehicle, instead of wheat-based alternatives.
Low FODMAP Potato Chips
If you’re looking for a snack with satisfying crunch and a burst of flavor in every bite, you’ll want to get your hands on a bag of Fody’s low FODMAP barbecue chips. Onion, garlic, gluten, and kinda guilt-free, you’ll have to try them yourself to see what everybody’s raving about. If BBQ’s not your thing, there are other low FODMAP potato chips out there, you’ll just have to read the label carefully to make sure there are no sneaky ingredients that send you running to the toilet.
Low FODMAP Corn Chips and Salsa
If corn chips and salsa are more up your alley than the potato chip variety, you can crush your craving with 50g (around 2 cups) of plain tortilla chips paired with a mild or medium low FODMAP salsa that’s Monash-approved.
Low FODMAP Spinach and Feta Dip
Perfect your insta-worthy cheese pull with one of our favorite savory low FODMAP snacks: warm spinach and feta dip paired with your choice of carrots, pretzels, rice crackers, cucumbers or other FODMAP-friendly vegetables. This satisfying blend of safe-to-eat cheeses is bound to please your palette.
