Ingredients
  

  • 1 x 400g can of kidney beans rinsed and drained (approximately 250g after draining)
  • 30 g coriander washed and chopped
  • 30 g spring onion greens washed and chopped
  • 40 ml 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 40 ml 2 tablespoons neutral oil of choice
  • 1 1/2 – 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt to your tastes
  • Pickled jalapeno to your tastes

Instructions
 

  • Blend all ingredients together in a small food processor. Taste and adjust, adding 20-40ml (1-2 tablespoons) water if you want to thin the beans out. Divide into low FODMAP portions and serve.

Notes

  • This recipe makes approximately 400g beans. The kidney bean content needs to be divided between 3 portions to remain low FODMAP.
  • Think of this like a sauce to serve with other proteins, as opposed to the main protein. The serving sizes are around 1/4 cup per person, which is not enough for a complete meal for many people. 
  • Keep in mind that beans only have small low FODMAP thresholds. You will need to serve these beans with low fructan foods to avoid FODMAP stacking. 
  • Read the notes in the body of the post for FODMAP notes and suggestions.
