Notes

IMPORTANT UPDATE (3/2022): Monash University recently retested red bell peppers and as a result has changed the FODMAP status of red bell peppers. Red bell peppers are no longer considered a FODMAP-free food. I am working to modify affected recipes, like this one, to reflect Monash’s recent serving size updates. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Also, if you previously tolerated red bell peppers (or other updated foods), continue to eat according to your unique tolerance level.
