Just popping in to let you all know that this week’s galactans challenge is still in full effect. Each day I’ve been testing my digestive system’s limits with a different member of the category – including peas, beans, lentils…and hummus. Oh glorious hummus. [For a list of the others galactan foods check here] I somehow managed to delete the final product of this banana, oat, pumpkin combo. So, yeah. This is all I’ve got. Work eats: salad, Halo s’mores ProBar , Enjoy Life chewy cocoa loco bar. This salad was just your average… Read more >

If there were any title more appropriate, I’d go with it, but this is really just a bunch of pics that have accumulated…and if they help give you ideas on healthy FODMAPS options, great. If not, sorry for this post’s random nature. Two recent recipes inspired this meal: Jenna’s veggie fried rice and Evan’s fried quinoa. I make quinoa in bulk at the beginning of every week. Without fail. Some weeks I make two batches because I go through it so quickly. I use my rice cooker, so it’s a completely mindless activity…as second… Read more >

I have been completely lagging in showing off my work eats. Packing up my food for the hospital is an art form, but it’s one I’ve perfected. Blogging about them, however, takes more time and I’m always exhausted when I get home from 12+ hours on my feet. And of course, there was the unexpected drive down to Newport Beach this weekend…so I’m definitely behind. Not to throw excuses at you, I’m just saying, I have weeks of hospital food stored up. How excited are you!? Ha! Here what’s to follow: on-the-go meals that are… Read more >

Last Friday was a wonderful work day because the entire time I was looking forward to my weekend. Kyle and I had fun plans that involved good food, family time, and lots of relaxing. But things took a turn in the afternoon. Because I was at work, I didn’t get the voice message or email until my lunch break: G-ma’s at the hospital. For those who don’t know, my Grandma is not your average Grandma. [June, 2011] She works. She (attempts to) beat me in cards and darts. And, as much as we all hate… Read more >

As far as I’m concerned, it’s officially Fall. And in the spirit of the season, pumpkin puree is back on the menu. Remember this bread recipe? Well, how about a FODMAPS friendly oat bake version? Pumpkin Banana Oat Bake (v, gf) oats water cinnamon coconut chia seeds I didn’t really measure the ingredients, just pulsed them in the magic bullet and gave the chia seeds some time to gel. While the oat mix cooked in the microwave (I put it for 1.5 minutes because I was too lazy to wait for… Read more >
