Savory Low-Fodmap Tuna and Vegetable Loaf

Print

I’ve been dreaming of a good savory low FODMAP loaf for ages! I’ve tried a lot of quick bread recipes, even beer bread (!), but none seemed good enough to make a second time or to share with you guys. I wanted to play around with the recipe a bit, so for the filling I thought about one of my favorite combinations: tuna+red peppers+olives. So fresh, so good! I added some zucchini, green onion tops and parsley. The result? Well, I’ve been eating cake salé happily since Sunday, and I can hardly wait to bake another loaf.

Bon appétit 🙂

Further Food Commentary:

This recipe is great for the gluten free and sugar conscious individual that keeps ingredients simple yet elegant. You can also get some great protein in addition to your Omega 3 fatty acids. Great skin. Great joints. Now that's a win in my book.

    Hi, I tried this recipe and it is very very good. I bought especially the rice flour and I am happy I did. I suffer from swollen belly and with this recipe, I didn’t have any problems. One thing though: I put a can of tuna as suggested and it was delicious but slightly too much, so I will try next time with half a can and see. Thanks a lot for sharing, you have a new follower!
