Is spinach low FODMAP?
Low FODMAP
Yes. Baby spinach and regular spinach are low FODMAP, raw or cooked. It is an easy way to add greens during the elimination phase.
Spinach contains very little FODMAP, so it is one of the easiest greens to rely on while you are on the elimination phase. Add it raw to salads or wilt it into eggs, soups, curries and pasta.
Watch the recipe
Creamed spinach is usually made with regular milk or cream and garlic. Spinach pies such as spanakopita combine it with onion and wheat pastry. The spinach is fine; the rest of the dish decides.
Easy ways to use it
- Wilt it into scrambled eggs with feta.
- Add a handful to a lentil or tofu curry.
- Toss it through low FODMAP pasta with garlic-infused oil.
