Low FODMAP Thanksgiving Menu
Thanksgiving dinner is quickly approaching us, and we all know what that means! A massive dining table packed with scrumptious holiday favorites, a giant turkey, and a dizzying array of sweet-treats to add more damage to the food coma. However, most of these holiday favorites can be high in FODMAPs, where IBS sufferers can have trouble digesting the meal and experiencing unfavorable symptoms on the holiday.
Luckily, you can still satisfy your dinner guests with equally delicious low FODMAP meals, without compromising on flavor!

Rich in protein, this creamy and flavorsome devilled eggs mixture will become a holiday staple. This recipe can be made in advance and stored in the fridge until ready to serve. Super simple, requires minimal effort, but will still win over your picky guests at the dinner table.
Low FODMAP Creamy Carrot & Coriander Soup
Warm up on Thanksgiving with this hearty, fall-inspired carrot and coriander soup. Sprinkle some fresh coriander or parsley once ladled into bowls for a beautiful garnish.
Mains & Sides:
Low FODMAP Herb Roasted Turkey
The culinary star of any Thanksgiving dinner table, getting the turkey right is going to be simple with this juicy recipe. Roasting time depends on the oven power and weight of the turkey. Make sure it is fully cooked throughout before serving, and allow to cool before carving.
Tip: Save some of the turkey juices from the pan, and boil with 2 tbsp. of Casa de Sante’s vegetable stock powder, 2 cups water and ¼ cup of low FODMAP flour to create a rich gravy sauce.
Low FODMAP Lemon & Herb Stuffing
A thanksgiving dinner is never complete without some scrumptious stuffing to complement the meal. However, most stuffing dishes are often made with onion, garlic, and other high FODMAP ingredients. You don’t have to compromise on flavor, with this low FODMAP lemon & herb stuffing.
Tip: Creamy Mashed Potatoes:
Instead of mashing potatoes with milk, sour cream and garlic, avoid FODMAPs by subbing these ingredients with IBS-friendly alternatives. Potatoes themselves are low in FODMAPs, so control what you add to the dish by choosing low FODMAP ingredients. For a creamy mashed potato dish, how about you try mixing your potatoes with lactose-free milk, a dab of butter, and a tsp of Casa de Sante’s Low FODMAP Tuscan Herb seasoning for a pinch of rich flavor!
Low FODMAP Tuscan Herb Crockpot Chicken
Succulent and juicy chicken is always a winner at any holiday dinner table. Prepare this dish with your favorite low FODMAP veggies, such as carrots, broccoli, potatoes, and more. This foolproof recipe is extremely easy to make. Simply layer your ingredients in your crockpot, and forget about it for a few hours. When serving the vegetables, make sure to watch serving sizes to avoid consuming high FODMAP portions!
Dessert:
Low FODMAP No Crust Pumpkin Pie
End your meal on a sweet note with a fall-favorite: a creamy slice of pumpkin pie. If you’d like to add more spice, sprinkle the mixture with a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg for extra flavor. Fill the room with an autumnal, sweet aroma as this bakes in the oven. Who’s hungry for dessert?
Candied Pecans:
Use the first recipe to make more candied pecans for your guests to nibble on with their drinks after the main meal. Always watch your serving sizes and stick to 10 pecans for a low FODMAP serve.
Allow this menu to inspire you to create a show-stopping Low FODMAP Thanksgiving dinner for your guests this holiday, and enjoy these delicious recipes with your loved ones.
From all of us at Casa De Sante, we wish you a very happy holiday!
