This is a tummy-friendly lasagne that will please the whole family. Created by dietitian Chloe McLeod, it has all the texture and flavour you would expect from this popular Italian classic. How to make this low FODMAP lasagne: key tips A lasagne sauce needs to be quite “wet” so that there will be enough liquid to cook the pasta sheets. So, pop a lid on the pan while it simmers, to reduce the amount of evaporation. If you find the sauce is becoming too dry, simply add a little more water. A little trick when assembling your lasagne is to spread a few spoonfuls of sauce over the base of the dish (you only need a small amount) before lining with the pasta sheets. If you do this, you will reduce the chance of the pasta sticking to the dish. Key ingredients in this low FODMAP lasagne recipe Leggos do a FODMAP-friendly certified pasta sauce, and Barilla have a gluten-free range of pasta sheets. While dairy is often high in FODMAP lactose (see notes, below), many cheeses are surprisingly low. Cheddar and cottage cheese are both low FODMAP. Too much tomato becomes high FODMAP, so bulking up this lasagne with other vegetables, including zucchini and capsicum, reduces the need to add lots of tomato. Here is everything you need to know about a FODMAP diet, along with 8 recipes to relieve any adverse symptoms. Introduction and additional recipe notes by Natasha Shaw.
