Conditions that mess with your digestion have a knack for sapping all the joy out of eating. It's hard to look forward to meals when you're worried that each bite could set off a new round of fireworks in your gut. That's why when you're in the middle of a flare, experts often recommend following a low-FODMAP diet.

What are these FODMAPS we speak of? Well, their official name is fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols, and they're a group of difficult-to-digest carbohydrates that can fuel gas production and promote pain. Two things you definitely do not need.

So we asked Jamie Vespa, R.D., of Dishing Out Health, to develop a set of low-FODMAP recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (plus snacks!) that will help you eat with a lot less fear. Just one important reminder: It's not healthy to eat low-FODMAP long-term because you may not get all the nutrients you need. So if you're struggling with symptoms that last longer than a few days, be sure to check in with you doctor.
