Looking for a Low FODMAP Vegetable Soup? Soup is one of the foods you will probably miss when on the low FODMAP diet. Which is a real shame seeing as it is high in fibre and vitamins. Plus, such a great lunch for the winter.
I actually created this for a client who since going on the low FODMAP diet has become slightly constipated so we were trying to increase their fibre intake.
The soup is simple Low FODMAP Vegetable Soup to make – I do not do complicated! And, contains around 2 of your 5 portions/day.
Here I have teamed it up with some home made spelt bread and smoked salmon, creating a lovely, balanced meal.
