Why I Love Thanksgiving (and These Recipes)
After Christmas, Thanksgiving is hands-down my favorite holiday. No gifts, no pressure—just a day to slow down, eat fantastic food, and be thankful for life’s big and small blessings.
But if you’re following a Low FODMAP diet or avoiding gluten, the “just eat whatever” approach can feel… tricky. I get it—I’ve been there. That’s why I put together these Low FODMAP Thanksgiving recipes that keep the flavor, ditch the digestive trouble, and work for all your guests and loved ones.
Tips for Enjoying the Holidays on a Low FODMAP Diet
Before we get into the recipes, here are a few tips for enjoying the holidays on a low FODMAP or other special diet:
- Scope the table early – If you’re a guest, arrive, smile, and quietly check what’s being served before the big sit-down. Ask questions early, avoid awkwardness later.
- Bring your own dish – it’s not only safe, but also a chance to share something new with everyone.
- Stick to the classics (done your way) – Turkey, Low FODMAP veggies, and a gluten-free dessert will keep your plate (and belly) happy.
- Eat slow – Savor bites, set down your fork, and let your stomach signal when it’s full.
