    A quick and easy meal at any time of the day, this Low FODMAP Breakfast Stuffed Potato recipe is filled with bacon-y kale and topped with a fried egg.

    Two plates baked potatoes stuffed with bacon and kale and topped with a fried egg and a sprinkle of chives and paprika.

    Savory breakfasts and brunches are pretty much my jam. And, this Low FODMAP Breakfast Stuffed Potato recipe is my current favorite. If you’re not a fan of kale, try substituting spinach or your favorite low FODMAP veggie.

    Shopping list

    To make this low FODMAP breakfast, add these ingredients to your shopping list:

    • Russet potatoes – 2 small
    • Butter – 2 teaspoons
    • Bacon – 4 slices
    • Kale – 2 cups (I used curly leaf, but lacinato also works well)
    • Dried oregano – ¼ teaspoon
    • Eggs – 2 large

    Optional garnishes: Snipped chives; paprika

    Low FODMAP notes

    In this section, I share information for certain ingredients that are either frequently asked about or that have suggested serving sizes to remain low FODMAP. We each have unique tolerance levels and nutritional needs. Please listen to your body (and if possible, work with a FODMAP-trained dietitian) to determine what is best for you. For more low FODMAP serving size info, please refer to the Monash FODMAP app and FODMAP Friendly website or app.

    Butter does not contain carbohydrates (FODMAPs). It is a naturally low-lactose dairy product.

    Kale contains minimal FODMAPs. It is considered a FODMAP-free food. Enjoy according to your appetite.

    Potatoes are a FODMAP-free food with or without the skin. Keeping the skin adds a little extra low FODMAP fiber.

    Instructions

    To make these low FODMAP stuffed potatoes, simply:

    Microwave the potatoes. Poke potatoes on all sides with a fork. Microwave for 5 minutes or until tender and cooked. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise, stopping about an ½-inch from the bottom. Spread 1 teaspoon butter onto the inside of each sliced potato.

    Cook the bacon and kale. Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add diced bacon and cook, stirring occasionally until almost done. Stir in kale and cook until the kale is just wilted and the bacon is crispy. Add oregano and season with salt and pepper. Divide and top each buttered potato with half of the kale.

    Fry the eggs. In the now-empty pan, add cooking oil, if needed, to prevent sticking. Add eggs and cook to preference. Top each stuffed potato with a cooked egg.

    Serve warm topped with optional snipped chives and paprika.

    We each have unique nutritional needs. If you would like to build on this meal, consider adding portions of:

    Low FODMAP Fruit: Oranges and clementines are a couple of FODMAP-free fruits. Check the Monash FODMAP app for more options.

    Low FODMAP Dairy: Enjoy a glass of lactose-free milk or a little low FODMAP cheese (like Cheddar, Swiss, or Parmesan).

      I love this so much! Thank you! Also your website as a whole is incredibly helpful. My doctor is having me try a low FODMAP diet for 2 weeks and I feel like I can’t eat anything. It’s nice to see many delicious options on your site. I appreciate you!
