HUMMUS! I cannot tell you the last time I had this delicious dip until recently as the store-bought version has garlic. It makes it close to impossible to find a FODMAP safe snack store-bought version of this dip out. Recently I was able to add this moderate FODMAP food back into my diet. This has been a HUGE game changer for me and has added more variety to my diet. Remember it’s important to stick to the Monash approved portion of chickpeas which is 1/4 cup and 1/2 cup if you’re able to handle a bigger serving of Oligos. It is so important to re-challenge moderate and high FODMAP foods back into your diet as many of these foods are healthy and a huge part of maintaining a balanced diet. Variety is so key!
I love being able to come home from work or on the weekend and grab a freshly made hummus spread in the fridge and vegetables to have as a healthy snack. It’s a great alternative to grabbing something not healthy and that will hurt the stomach.
