My usual breakfast was scrambled eggs with a bit of avocado (under 30g) and homemade low FODMAP salsa and a banana or a banana walnut muffin (made with nut/coconut flours). Some mornings I would grill up a couple of sausages. Illegal ones as I know they were seasoned with a small amount of onion and garlic.
Lunch was a mismash, sometimes on the run, cold beef vegetable soup (not the most satisfying), kale salad with a salmon patty or beef jerky, a banana and some potato chips or plantain chips. Not that I advise eating potato chips, but they are low FODMAP if you don't eat too many. I packed 3 servings of stir fry with peanut sauce as well and that was great because it's not that bad cold. Between the stirfy and the soup it was easy to pack 6 lunches. We were gone 2 weeks and sometimes we were driving or cycling over lunch which is where the beef jerky and chips comes in handy :) I packed a lot of kale from our garden and made a handful of kale salads because they pack really well.
Dinner was either hot dogs, turkey burger or bison burger on a mac nut bun. So filling there is no need for sides. My guys sometimes wanted to go out for a meal and in that case I almost always ordered a burger and smuggled in my own bun. I'm not going to lie, eating out is the hardest part. I indulged in a bit of bbq sauce one meal out and totally cheated toward the end. Beer! Bend, Oregon is the capital for beer, I swear. The last restaurant we went to had burgers but they were 1/2 lb of meat. 1/2 of a pound! There was no way, so I ordered chicken satay with peanut sauce. I knew the sauce would probably have garlic and onion in it but when the chicken came it was covered in a curry seasoning that probably had garlic and onion as well. That was the last meal before the drive home so I just ate it. I think I would have been more strict if my last breath test had been better.
Surprisingly I didn't experience any bloating outside the norm even though I sometimes when overboard on the FODMAPs or downright illegal on all accounts.
Oh and wine, I drank way too much wine.
