Serving Suggestions:

I would suggest serving this pizza with a serving of fruit and a glass of low FODMAP milk. Some low FODMAP fruit options would be:

• 1 cup grapes (150 grams)
• 1 medium orange (130 grams)
• 20 blueberries (28 grams)

For low FODMAP milk, you can enjoy a glass of lactose-free milk. If you’re looking for a plant-based milk alternative, some low FODMAP options would be:

• 1 cup almond milk (240 grams)
• 1 cup macadamia milk (240 grams)
• 1 cup quinoa milk (240 grams)
• 3/4 cup rice milk (200 grams)

To help limit added sugar, I would suggest opting for plain or unsweetened varieties whenever possible. If you’re following a low FODMAP plan, I would also recommend double-checking the ingredients list of any product for sneaky low FODMAP ingredients. Even if a product falls on the low FODMAP list, every brand and product is slightly different and may contain high FODMAP ingredients.

Label Reading

When reading labels, it’s important to know that ingredients are listed in descending order from the largest amount to the smallest amount.

For example, here are the ingredients (as of March 2018) of Udi’s Gluten Free Pizza Crust:

WATER, TAPIOCA STARCH, BROWN RICE FLOUR, NON-GMO CANOLA OIL, EGG WHITES, EVAPORATED CANE SUGAR, TAPIOCA SYRUP, TAPIOCA MALTODEXTRIN, SALT, XANTHAN GUM, YEAST, CULTURED CORN SYRUP SOLIDS (NATURAL MOLD INHIBITOR), ENZYMES.

In this pizza crust, water is the largest ingredient because it appears first in the ingredient list. The last ingredients are cultured corn syrup solids and enzymes, which are likely added in very small amounts to this pizza crust because they appear at the very bottom of the list.

In general, if a high FODMAP ingredient or another ingredient with an unknown FODMAP level is present in a product, the further down the list it appears, the less likely it is going to trigger symptoms. With that said, we are all unique and have different tolerance levels. So all foods, low FODMAP or otherwise, may not be tolerated by all individuals.
