This almond butter lime dressing is a delicious and versatile low fodmap salad dressing spiced with zesty lime and ginger. The low fodmap dressing is made with almond butter, fresh lime, ginger, tamari, maple syrup, coconut aminos, and water.
The oil free almond butter ginger dressing is suitable for people with IBS that are on the FODMAP diet. The addition of tamari provides a savory and perfectly salty flavor to complement the lime and ginger. Coconut aminos and maple syrup add the perfect amount of sweetness.
Maple syrup is a natural sweetener allowed on the low-FODMAP diet in amounts of 2 tbsp per serving. The almond butter dressing yields 3-4 servings, depending on how much you use per serving.
Is almond butter low fodmap?
Almond butter is used as the base for this low fodmap creamy salad dressing, which has been tested by Monash University and is low FODMAP in a serving size of 1 tbsp. 1.5 tbsp of almond butter contains moderate GOS and fructan fodmaps. If you are on a strict Low Fodmap diet, do not exceed 1 tbsp of almond butter per serving. A total of 4 tbsp of almond butter is used in this low-fodmap homemade salad dressing, so if you use 1/4 of the dressing at a time, it is low in fodmaps.
As with many FODMAP foods, serving size matters. The Monash University FODMAP app will tell you which foods are high and low in FODMAPs, which is helpful during the initial stages of following the low FODMAP diet for IBS.
As your symptoms of IBS improve, you should be able to tolerate high FODMAP foods again or at least increase the serving size of some foods. So, always pay attention to your symptoms. If you listen, your body will tell you what you can and cannot tolerate.
A FODMAP app helps you identify what foods you are likely to tolerate and what foods are high in FODMAPs and likely to irritate IBS. But you are unique. For now, you can enjoy a tbsp of low-FODMAP almond butter in this delicious low-FODMAP salad dressing!
Ginger, a key ingredient in this recipe, is a fantastic culinary herb for the SIBO diet or low FODMAP diet. It has antimicrobial properties, helps reduce bloating, and improves motility, making it a healthy addition to your meal.
