Low FODMAP creamy tuna pasta

Today I have a simple low FODMAP creamy tuna pasta for you. On weekdays, I love cooking recipes that only cost 20 minutes to prepare.

That I only have to stand in the kitchen shortly after a working day and can put a delicious meal on the table quickly. This recipe is one of those, perfect! 

The ingredients of the low FODMAP tuna pasta

The ingredients of this pasta are: 

  • Gluten-free pasta: I like using a pasta made of buckwheat or brown rice for extra fiber. If you cannot find this, you can also use a gluten-free pasta made of corn.
     
  • Canned tuna: I usually use tuna in water. You can also use canned tuna in sunflower oil, if you prefer that. 
  • Vegetables: for vegetables I used broccoli, oyster mushrooms and tomatoes, but you can swap those for other low FODMAP veggies that you have in your pantry.

    This is a great recipe for using up left-over veggies. Broccoli is limited low FODMAP up to 75 gram per serving and contain fructose.

    In 2022, tomatoes were retested and they are also limited low FODMAP. If you know you react to fructose or you are still in the elimination phase, I advise not to use broccoli and tomatoes together in one meal. You can skip the tomatoes and use for example some extra mushrooms or carrots instead.
  • Lactose-free crème fraîche: for the cream sauce, I use lactose-free crème fraiche. You can also use a lactose-free cooking cream, if that’s available in the supermarket. 
  • Seasoning: I keep the seasonings simple in this recipe. For flavour I use pepper, salt, lemon juice and the green part of spring onion. You could also use the green part of leek, instead of spring onion.

    Delicious!
    I didn’t have broccoli so I substituted zucchini and carrots. Definitely adding this to my favourite recipes list!
