Recipe adapted from: Eating For Life by Bill Phillips
Dressing choice is critical: avoid vinegar-based dressings (balsamic, apple cider, rice, white wine) and tomato-based dressings entirely. Safe options include: garlic-infused olive oil + lime juice (use sparingly as a small squeeze only, not a primary ingredient), plain olive oil + salt, or a FODMAP-safe homemade dressing with garlic-infused oil, maple syrup, and mustard. Do not use store-bought bottled dressings without checking the ingredient label for onion, garlic, vinegar, high-fructose corn syrup, or inulin. The cheddar cheese portion (1/2 cup total, or 1/4 cup per serving) is within the FODMAP limit of 2 oz per person, assuming standard cheese weighs ~0.5 oz per 2 tbsp.
