Fody's Hearty Low FODMAP Vegetable Soup

I was going to call this “minestrone,” and it is reminiscent of that classic soup. Still, since we have made some Low FODMAP adjustments, such as not using onions, white beans or Borlotti beans, and using a different pasta shape from ditalini (as we cannot find a LOFO version), we are just going to call this hearty Low FODMAP vegetable soup — a comforting option for anyone searching for Low FODMAP Soups.

And hearty it is! And quick and easy to make, taking advantage of Fody Low FODMAP Garlic-Infused Olive Oil, Fody Low FODMAP Chicken Soup Base, and Fody Low FODMAP Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce. If you’re building a list of Low FODMAP soup recipes or an IBS-friendly soup recipe rotation, this is a great place to start. Please note that this luscious soup contains many ingredients, and it could veer into moderate or high FODMAP territory if you do not adhere to serving sizes. We suggest brushing up on FODMAP Stacking to keep your soup recipes comfortably low in FODMAPs.

Place Fody Garlic-Infused Olive Oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven and heat over medium heat. Add leek and scallion greens and sauté for a few minutes until soft. Add water, Fody Low FODMAP Chicken Soup Base and Fody Low FODMAP Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce, stir everything together and bring to a simmer, making sure soup base is dissolved. Add chickpeas, carrots, celery, zucchini, cabbage, green beans, dried basil and dried oregano and stir all the ingredients together well.

Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in spinach and simmer for a few more minutes until spinach wilts. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in a generous amount of salted water till al dente; drain and stir into soup. Soup is ready to serve, garnished with a light sprinkling of Parmesan cheese and fresh basil. You can also cool the ungarnished Low FODMAP soup to room temperature and refrigerate it in an airtight container for up to 5 days—reheat as needed for easy Low FODMAP soup recipe meal prep.
