Pizza for a Low-FODMAP Diet

Are you following a Low-FODMAP diet and miss some of your favorite foods? It’s never comfortable to be uncomfortable, but fear not, you don’t need to miss out on some of your most beloved foods. I'm talking about pizza! Yes, it is true that you want to eliminate garlic, onions, and most dairy and wheat when on a Low-FODMAP diet, but I'll show you how to have your Pizza Fridays (or any day of the week, for that matter). I particularly enjoy making artisan-style pizzas, so let me show you how I use Sifter to gather the ingredients for a Low-FODMAP, Greek-style pizza.

1) Begin your search by creating a MyDiet Profile that includes the SiftTag FODMAP - Low under Lifestyle Diets.

2) The foundation of any good pizza is a dependable and delicious crust. If you're making your crust from scratch, I like using Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Flour, which makes an excellent gluten-free flour substitute. If you are a pre-made crust kind of person (no judgment!), I would recommend Schär's Gluten Free Pizza Crust.

3) After rolling out your crust, it’s time for toppings. Start with a nice layer of sauce, such as Gefen's Classic Italian Pizza Sauce, then sprinkle with some cheese, perhaps Litehouse Feta Cheese Crumbles.

4) Since we are doing a Greek-style pizza, some toppings that I would recommend include black olives, prosciutto, fresh basil, sun-dried tomatoes, and arugula (place after baking).

5) Pop it in the oven, and minutes later, you'll have a delicious Low-FODMAP pizza. Bon appétit!
