Coconut and nuts form the base of this tasty grain-free granola with puréed pumpkin. If you use tinned pumpkin, check that it doesn’t contain sweeteners or sugars. If you like, add a spoonful of cocoa powder for a chocolate version or a spoonful of maca powder to support adrenal health. To make this suitable for low FODMAP diet use maple syrup instead of honey.

Restorative Chicken Noodle Soup Corn, gluten, lactose, milk, nut, peanut, sesame, soya & wheat free
A low carb healing soup. Instead of regular noodles I use strips of courgette. You can make this low FODMAP by leaving out the garlic and using only the green tops of spring onions. Garlic is a potent anti-microbial food useful for tackling gut infections. Serves 2 Ingredients

I love this spicy fermented relish. There are so many variations and it is worth you experimenting with your own flavours. Kimchi is a delicious Korean dish consisting of fermented chili peppers and vegetables, usually based on cabbage. Delicious as an accompaniment to meats and fish or topped on salad.
