Easy Low FODMAP Sheet Pan Nachos - my take on the popular Tex-Mex appetizer filled with crunchy tortilla chips, tasty taco meat, melty cheese, and all the FODMAP-friendly toppings.

Have you heard it's Super Bowl season?
Kidding. I'm fully aware.
Being from Minnesota, we rarely get to cheer on our beloved Vikings past the regular season. (It's a good thing I'm a hockey fan. ?) So Super Bowl Sunday is a thing, but not like a BIG thing for me.
But I know some of y'all take the Big Game pretty seriously. So today, I'm sharing a favorite FODMAP-friendly crowdpleaser. It's Tex-Mex (so it kind of fits into the whole Around the World Wednesday theme) and delicious. Plus, these Low FODMAP Sheet Pan Nachos are easy to make and easy to personalize to meet you and your partygoers' needs.
LOW FODMAP SHEET PAN NACHOS
The base is pretty generic: corn tortilla chips, my favorite low FODMAP taco meat mix, and cheese. Personally, I like the flavor and texture of ground turkey in my tacos and nachos, so that's what I usually use. However, feel free to sub-in ground beef or venison (hey dad, that tip is for you) and make these low FODMAP nachos your very own. (Try my Loaded Low FODMAP Lentil Nachos, if you're looking for something more plant-based.)
Once the base bakes and the cheese is nice and melted, you can add all (or some) of the optional toppings and serve. If you're having this at a party, I sometimes like to serve things like this with all of the toppings on the side. That way your partygoers can build their own nachos based on what they like and enjoy. Everyone wins (except maybe the Vikings). ?

Description
Easy Low FODMAP Sheet Pan Nachos - my take on the popular Tex-Mex appetizer filled with crunchy tortilla chips, tasty taco meat, melty cheese, and all the FODMAP-friendly toppings.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. garlic-infused olive oil
- ½ cup finely chopped leek leaves (green tops only)
- 1 Tbsp. minced jalapeno (optional)
- 1 (16 oz.) package ground turkey (or beef)
- 1 Tbsp. low FODMAP taco seasoning (or to taste)
- 1 (11 oz.) bag corn tortilla chips
- ⅔ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or dairy-free cheese)
Optional Toppings (choose all or just your faves)
- 1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
- ⅓ cup sliced green onion (green parts only)
- ⅓ cup sliced black olives
- 1-2 Tbsp. finely chopped cilantro
- Fody Foods Low FODMAP Salsa
- Fody Foods Low FODMAP Taco Sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add leek leaves and optional jalapeno. Saute until leek leaves are bright green, fragrant, and soft. Add ground turkey and brown, breaking apart into crumbles, until cooked. Once cooked, add taco seasoning, stir mixture, and adjust seasoning to taste. (If you’re using homemade low FODMAP taco seasoning, you may want to add a little salt here.) Remove skillet from heat and set aside.
- Place tortilla chips onto a rimmed baking sheet and spread into an even layer. Top with cooked turkey mixture and sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven. Top with your favorite optional toppings and serve warm.
Notes
Leek Leaves: A low FODMAP serving is ⅔ cup or 54 grams.
Corn Tortilla Chips: A low FODMAP serving is 50 grams or about 1.7 ounces.
Cheddar Cheese: A low FODMAP serving is 40 grams or 1.4 ounces.
Dairy-Free Cheese: A low FODMAP serving of soy cheese is 40 grams or 1.4 ounces. Not soy-based, but I personally use Daiya Dairy Free Cheese-Style Shreds. By ingredient, they appear to be lower in FODMAPs, however, they have not been tested and may not be tolerated by all. Consider testing to tolerance if this is a go-to option for you.
