These no FODMAP recipes are based upon foods that have shown to contain no FODMAPs in lab testing. In subsequent lab tests, some of these same ingredients have shown FODMAP content. All lab tests are accurate and represent what was tested at the time. One limitation of the Monash University and FODMAP Friendly apps is that only one data set can be shown at a time. In addition, the fruits and vegetables you buy literally cannot be the same as those tested at any time. Use the app entries as guides, and not absolutes.
Please read our article, When Monash University and FODMAP Friendly Lab Tests Differ, for a more explicit explanation.
No FODMAP Vegetables
We also have a No FODMAP Leafy Green Salad, featuring no FODMAP leafy endive (also called curly endive or frisée), red leaf and butter lettuce. This salad here is ALL ABOUT THE CRUNCH!

Hi, I got this recipe as a recently email but I can see it was 2020 and since then red capsicum has been updated and isn’t a ‘fodmap free’ or at the amount stated of 75g
Hi there, it is complicated. The recipe is still as it stands. You can read more HERE on tests and re-tests and what they mean. Basically, especially with fruits and vegetable, Monash EXPECTS changes. And, the produce you buy will also be different from what they test at any given time. Please review raw article.
