Parmesan Chicken with Bitter Greens and Fennel
This gut-friendly recipe features fiber-boosting whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs and low-lactose Parmesan cheese. By cooking the cutlets in a nonstick skillet, we only need a few tablespoons of oil to get the pieces nice and crispy. We prepared our side salad with fennel, tomatoes, radicchio, frisée, and arugula. Our vibrant vinaigrette made with vinegar, mustard, and other ingredients offered the ideal contrast to the breaded chicken.
Steak Tacos with Napa Cabbage Slaw
The perfect weeknight meal, our steak tacos recipe is low-FODMAP, dairy-free, and gluten-free. To amp up the fiber content, we used a generous amount of cabbage for our topping (about 4 cups). We tossed the cabbage with a zesty dressing and seasoned our steaks with bold spices such as cumin and paprika. We assembled the tacos with corn tortillas because they are naturally low-FODMAP and gluten-free.
Green Rice and Vegetable Bowls with Fried Egg
This fresh and flavorful bowl is packed with good-for-you ingredients such as spinach, green beans, edamame, and brown rice. We cooked the vegetables with garlic oil and ginger to boost the flavor. Our herb paste made with Thai basil and cilantro further intensified the flavor of the vegetables. We finished by topping each bowl with a fried egg.
