If you’ve ever tried to follow a low FODMAP diet as a vegetarian, you’ve probably had this exact thought: “What am I even supposed to eat?” Because the foods you rely on most are suddenly the very things you're told to avoid. And that’s where the frustration starts. In this episode, Alyssa breaks down how to actually make a low FODMAP vegetarian diet work in real life, without over-restricting, under-eating protein, or getting stuck in the elimination phase forever.

You’ll learn:

  • Why low FODMAP + vegetarian feels so restrictive (and what’s really happening)
  • The biggest misconception about FODMAP food lists (this trips up almost everyone)
  • How portion sizes + food stacking can trigger symptoms — even with “safe” foods
  • A simple framework to build meals that are balanced, filling, and gut-friendly
  • How to get enough protein without worsening symptoms
  • Why you might still feel bloated, even when you’re “doing everything right”
  • When low FODMAP isn’t enough, and what deeper issues to look for (SIBO, motility, digestion)
  • The exact mistakes keeping people stuck in elimination for months (or years)
