Quick question: Bob’s red Mill gluten-flour’s main ingredient is garbanzo bean flour. I thought that legumes were something that we could not have on the FODMAP diet. As a matter fact I have two large bags of their bread flour in my freezer right now which I was with thinking that I could not use. One of the things that I am discovering being new to this diet is that there’s a lot of differing information about what you can and cannot eat. Help!
Try King Arthur or Namaste

Hi Colleen. I looked up your tomato sauce recipe on Instagram, and after “pinching in the salt, pepper, oregano and garlic inflused oil”, it goes on “add tomatoes to pan and then ADD ALL OTHER ingredients”. What other ingredients do you mean? Cheers, heather
Hi there! Sorry about that. If you look in the post you will see the directions: Cut up fresh Roma tomatoes, drop in a pinch of salt, oregano and black pepper to taste plus 1-2 tablespoons #garlicinfusedoil. Add tomatoes to the sauce pan and cook on high heat, add in all the other ingredients and then lower the heat to a simmer
