Coming up with FODMAP lunch ideas can be tough on the FODMAP diet especially in the beginning when you are still trying to figure out what you can and cannot eat. For me, it’s all about being prepared and organized as last-minute scrambling usually means an upset stomach instead of making thoughtful choices. I do try to meal prep on Sundays but it doesn’t happen every Sunday.
The easiest option would be…LEFTOVERS! Yep, a no-brainer for me. I tend to make more than enough food for dinner and immediately put a lunch portion in a container for the next day. This way my husband can’t steal my meal and I have lunch ready to go.
Soup – I’m a big fan of soup especially as it starts to get cooler outside. I find a warm bowl of soup not only soothing on my stomach but filling without having me asleep on my desk. Some of my favorite soups are chicken tortilla soup and tomato basil soup.
Sandwich from home OR a lettuce wrap from a sandwich shop. I tend to not like most gluten-free loaves of bread as they can taste like cardboard. I either will get a sandwich on sourdough bread or order a lettuce wrap. Both are great options! Be mindful to order FODMAP safe spreads and toppings.
