Low FODMAP guacamole
During my vacation in America, I tasted the guacamole at Chipotle. It contained a lot of onion, so it was far from a low FODMAP guacamole. But it was one of the best guacamoles I have ever eaten.
So I thought: I am going to recreate that, but in a low FODMAP version. And I did 🙂 So I present: the tastiest low FODMAP guacamole!

How much guacamole is low FODMAP?
Avocado contains the FODMAP group sorbitol and is low FODMAP at 60 grams (3 tbsp) per serving. Since this guacamole consists mostly of avocado, you can eat a maximum of 60 grams of guacamole per meal if you are still in the elimination phase.
That is about 3 tablespoons. Do you know that you tolerate sorbitol well? Then you can take a bit more of the guacamole.
This is what you can eat with low FODMAP guacamole
My favorite way to eat this low FODMAP guacamole is with tortilla chips. There’s nothing better than dipping tortilla chips in homemade guacamole. Yum!
It’s also delicious to serve the guacamole with dishes with a Mexican twist, such as:
- Low FODMAP nachos
- Low FODMAP burritos
- Low FODMAP stuffed bell peppers
- Low FODMAP enchiladas
- Low FODMAP Mexican lettuce wraps
Or I eat this guacamole for lunch, on a delicious roasted sourdough spelt sandwich with some cherry tomatoes on the side.
