Happy (Super Bowl) Sunday! Looking for a Low FODMAP chili recipe for your event?
I must admit I’m not much of a football fan, but I do love the commercials, food and of course the Puppy Bowl. My husband was requesting beef chili for the game, so I made this bean-free version that’s low FODMAP & gluten-free. Beans are still allowed on the low FODMAP elimination phase (just in small amounts), but because I know chili is one of those foods people tend to eat large portions of, I kept them out. In place of the beans I added some toasted quinoa that provides texture and fiber! Fun fact: quinoa is also a complete protein!
I kept this batch on the less spicy side for my husband, but if you love spice I’d highly recommend doubling the amount of cayenne pepper or adding a low FODMAP hot sauce (like Tabasco). Top it with a low lactose cheese like Sharp Cheddar and Enjoy!
