5 Minutes • Low FODMAP • Gluten-free • Lactose-free • Serves 1 to many • Tired of the same old thing for lunch? Looking for a quick “grab and go” option? Sometimes all you need is a little inspiration from nature. Fruit and nuts are wonderful choices for this. What’s in season that’s on your low FODMAP list? Grab a piece of low FODMAP fruit and some nuts and voila! You have the perfect grab-and-go lunch.

Ingredients

Low FODMAP servings of some fruits are listed below.

1 tangerine

1 orange

1 cup of grapes

1 banana (firm/no spots)

10 strawberries

Low FODMAP servings of some nuts are listed below. You can pick one or cut your serving size down and pick two or three varieties.

32 peanuts

20 macadamia nuts

10 pecan halves

10 walnut halves

10 almonds

Directions

See what’s in season. Check what’s in your pantry. Use your imagination. Having a lean and efficient lunch is a great way to save time, and keep your mind sharp so you can stay awake and alert all day long. Save the heavier stuff for dinner time when you’re going to be going to sleep anyway.

You can pick one or cut your serving size down and pick two or three varieties. It’s important to keep as much variety in your diet as you can tolerate but don’t go overboard on the fruit as eating raw fruit can be problematic for some of us with IBS. Keep your portion size to one piece of fruit per meal and assess your body’s response. Then adjust the next time you have this for lunch.

Eat and enjoy every bite because you can!
