My favorite part of summer is cooking fresh health My favorite part of summer is cooking fresh healthy meals while it’s still light out ☀️ This is a pistachio tofu with a delicious zucchini rice summer salad 🥗 inspired by @soulsyncbody 

Recipe ⬇️ 
pistachio tofu ingredients—
2 slices of high protein/extra firm tofu (about 2/5 of 1 block)
1/4 cup pistachios
2 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp agave
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp lemon juice

zucchini rice salad ingredients—
1 cup cooked brown rice
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/4 cup mint, finely chopped
1 zucchini, diced
salt & pepper
lemon squeeze
drizzle of olive oil

Instructions:
01 Start by slicing your tofu and scoring each side. Be careful not to accidentally cut it in half! Stir together the marinade and add to a shallow bowl. Let the tofu marinate while you prep the rest of the meal.

02 Cook your brown rice. Meanwhile, chop up your zucchini and toss with a splash of olive oil, salt and pepper. Air fry at 375 for about 10 min. While that’s baking chop up your mint and cherry tomatoes.

03 Once your tofu has marinated for at least 20 minutes, cover the top with chopped pistachios. If your pistachios aren’t salted, add a pinch of salt. Add to the air fryer and bake at 375 degrees for about 8-10 minutes. Keep your eye on them to make sure the pistachios don’t burn.

04 Add the zucchini rice salad ingredients together - brown rice, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, mint, olive oil, lemon, salt, and pepper - toss then divide between 2 plates. Serve with one of the tofu fillets.

Enjoy!

Vegan Tom Kha Gai – Low FODMAP & Healing

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
vegan low fodmap tom kha gai

Vegan Tom Kha Gai.

This Thai and fully vegan Tom Kha Gai (Coconut Chicken Soup) is made from whole foods, plant-based, and low FODMAP ingredients. This recipe is ultra healing and gentle on your gut.

vegan low fodmap tom kha gai

What is Low FODMAP?

If you are familiar with my content, you’ve probably heard me talk about low FODMAP diets. Essentially, if you are suffering from digestive issues such as IBS, SIBO, or leaky gut, a low FODMAP diet can get your gut back to a healthy place. I developed IBS after eating an abundance of the same high FODMAP foods daily – beans, cashews, avocados, and chickpeas were the culprit for me.

To get my gut back to normal, I ate a diet consisting of low FODMAP foods only for about three months. I was then slowly able to reintroduce high FODMAP foods back into my diet, and make sure not to eat them in massive portions or daily. It’s difficult to find low FODMAP vegan recipes out there, so many vegans have turned back to meat and fish not thinking they had another solution.

If you relate to any of this or are on a low FODMAP diet, I HIGHLY recommend downloading the Monash University FODMAP app to find out exactly which foods you can and can’t eat. Some foods are high FODMAP in large portions, and low FODMAP in smaller portions. For example, a full banana is high FODMAP but 1/3 banana is low FODMAP.

vegan low fodmap tom kha gai

Low FODMAP Ingredients

For this recipe, I utilized the app to create a soup that is fully vegan and low FODMAP friendly. Here are the highlight ingredients:

  • Pearl Oyster & Shimeji Mushrooms. As far as I know, these are the only two mushrooms that are low FODMAP friendly and can be eaten in abundance. If you’re not on a low FODMAP diet, feel free to add as many more mushrooms as you’d like! Options include shiitake, button, bella, and so many more.
  • Light Coconut Milk. Light coconut and regular coconut milk are different and can’t really be used interchangeably. You CAN use a full fat coconut milk here to make the soup creamier, but the fat content will sky rocket. If you want this soup creamier, I recommend adding in a thickener like oat or coconut flour, a more intense thickener like arrowroot flour, or mixing in raw rice and letting it soak up some of the liquid.

  • Red Bell Peppers. Unlike green bell peppers, red bell peppers are low FODMAP and will not irritate your gut.
  • Carrots. I used baby carrots for the sake of convenience, but you can totally peel and dice a regular size carrot. Rainbow carrots would be great here too!
  • Tofu. Any tofu works in this recipe, but I went with Trader Joe’s High Protein Tofu with contains 70g of protein in just one block. If you don’t live near a TJ’s, try these high protein tofu’s:

Lemongrass

Lemongrass is such an easy way to add flavor to your soup, you just need to know how to prepare it correctly. Take these exact steps:

  • Chop the majority of the stalk off. You’ll only need the bottom 2-3 inches or so. Discard the large stalk.
  • Peel the tough layers off the lemongrass. This should be fairly easy. Continue until your lemongrass piece is soft.
  • Use the back of a large knife to pound the lemongrass. This will help the flavors and aroma release.
  • Add the lemongrass to your soup. When you’re done cooking, be sure to remove the lemongrass, don’t eat it!

Vegan Low FODMAP Tom Kha Gai

Vegan Tom Kha Gai (coconut chicken soup) made with low FODMAP ingredients.
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/2 jalapeño pepper, thinly chopped or minced
  • 1 large carrot, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1-2 tbsp pureed ginger
  • 2 stalks lemongrass
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 stalks green onion, chopped
  • 2 cans light coconut milk
  • 1 cup veggie broth (or water)
  • 1 block tofu, cubed
  • 1/2 cup oyster mushrooms, diced
  • 1/4 cup shimeji mushrooms
  • 1/2 tbsp coconut or brown sugar
  • 1 lime, juice from

Instructions

  • Add diced carrots, red pepper, oyster mushroom, ginger, shimeji mushrooms and minced jalapeños to a large pot with coconut oil.
  • Prepare your lemongrass – you will only need the bottom 3 inches or so, scroll up for photos. You will peel the tough layers off the lemongrass then use the back of your knife to pound it. This releases the lemony flavors.
  • Once veggies have softened (not completely – about 10 min on a low heat) add in the lime juice, coconut milk, veggie broth or water, tamari, lemongrass, cilantro, green onions, tofu cubes, and coconut sugar.
  • Let simmer at a low heat for about 20 min. I prefer to leave my soup cooking on a low heat for longer to really let the flavors soak into the soup. If you’re short on time, you can cook at a higher heat for a shorter duration.
  • Remove lemongrass and top with extra cilantro leaves and green onions. Serve alone or over rice or noodles.
