Low FODMAP Egg Cups

Easy Egg Muffins: Ingredients

  • 6 Eggs Free Range Organic, if possible

  • 1/3 cup lactose-free milk or other low FODMAP milk

  • 2 tsp dried oregano

  • 1/8 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp pepper or more

  • 1/2 cup quinoa cooked (optional)

  • 3/4 cup feta cheese

  • 1 medium tomato

  • 1 medium bell pepper orange yellow or red

Method:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin well with cooking spray or oil, or use muffin liners.

  1. Whisk together the eggs and milk. Mix in the oregano, salt and pepper.

  2. Chop the tomato and bell pepper. Discard/compost the watery part of the tomatoes with the seeds. Crumble the feta into small pieces. Divide the tomato, pepper and feta (and quinoa if using) evenly in the muffin tin. Pour the egg mixture over the veggies and cheese.

  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until lightly browned on the tops. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes, then remove the egg muffins from the tin.

  4. Store in the fridge for up to 4 days, or the freezer for up to 3 months.

RECIPE NOTES

  • If you don't use muffin liners, wash the pan right after removing the egg muffins. The egg can really stick to the pan.

  • Mixing in quinoa is a great way to add in a healthy grain.

  • Don’t use the watery part of the tomatoes (the inside part with the seeds). If used, they add a lot of extra liquid and can make the muffins too watery.

Low FODMAP Substations For Onions and Garlic

Sometimes our bodies can’t always digestion foods, even ones that are good for us, like onions and garlic.

Onions and garlic are very powerful antioxidants, very detoxifying and pretty tasty to cook with but some people have a hard time with them.

Instead try substituting for onions:

  • Green Onion Tops

  • Leek Leaves

  • Chives

And for Garlic:

  • Garlic Infused Oil

Every body is different and will react differently, so try these substations and let me know they work for you.
