Excellent Book

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2017

It's a great book. My gastroenterologist totally approved. This book is so informative and so easy to understand. I have IBS-D and have been miserable. I just started the program and I'm excited to figure out what makes my gut tick!

Double check the recipe ingredients if you’re on the FODMAP diet

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2019

This book has some good quick recipes with comments to accommodate certain digestive issues and/or allergies (such as acid reflux/GERD or peanut allergies). However, I purchased the book hoping it would have more FODMAP friendly recipes and I noticed that a handful of the recipes include high FODMAP ingredients (as listed on my FODMAP app and resource from my doctor). Just a note to those that need to follow the FODMAP diet strictly for health reasons - make sure to double check the ingredients and whether they are on your FODMAP list.

I wasn't sure what to expect but needed to get some low FODMAP recipes. We've made 15 or 20 different items and each one has been GREAT! Very flavorful and pretty easy to make. Healthy and tasty. Anyone can benefit from these recipies. Highly recommend

A FABULOUS cookbook

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2017

Having had IBS for 35 years, it was not until recently I decided to explore the Low FODMAP diet. I never realized what a turn my life would take. However, being vegetarian, the IBS book I already owned had no recipes of interest. This book, other than the section on meat, has the most amazing recipes that I cannot wait to try. After reading them, I did not find one that didn't interest me. I LOVE this book and it will be my cooking bible. Forgot to mention that it also has several pages of helpful info on starting my journey. Thank you so much for this invaluable work.

Worst cook book ever purchased.

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2019

Worst cook book ever bought. I follow directions to a "t" and everything came out extremely bland. There are also steps that are missing. Like one recipe was zucchini boats and it does not instruct on making rice just expects that you have it premade and ready for the assembly. Not only that but, if you follow directions to a "t" when it comes time to bake the boats the rice comes out stiff as a rock. I also tried the ice cream and it was gross. They tasted like sour cream. Overall disappointed. Worst cook book I have ever owned.

If your already familiar with IBS, this is an awesome cookbook

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2021

I ordered three IBS Cookbooks and this one is my second choice only because The Elimination Diet' by Alissa Segersten and Tom Malterre, MS, CN lays out a 28 day plan that takes out most of the thinking planning process. Pros of The Quick and Easy IBS Relief Cookbook:
1. Good paper quality, not glossy pages
2. Only has 23 pages of educational background (if you're already familiar with it, this is a bonus)
3. I do LOVE that it has substitutions/tips written at the bottom of the recipe as some of the recipes supplied are not GERD or IBS-C friendly.
4. It has nutritional facts listed at the bottom of each recipe:

Cons of The Quick and Easy IBS Relief Cookbook
1. it lacks pictures (has one picture per section) and I eat with my eyes. Of the three books, none of them really had pictures and this one may have had the most. (This is the reason I gave it 4 stars)

Not FODMAP friendly

Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

I didn't get very far into the cookbook when I realized that the suggested FODMAP friendly foods she suggested are NOT FODMAP friendly. Got to the page of fruits she says we can have and she listed that we can safely have 1 cup of blueberries, honey dew melon and raspberries which are not FODMAP friendly on the Monash app. Be very wary of what this cookbook states we can safely eat for those of us following a low FODMAP diet. I returned to cookbook for a refund!

Great gift to give someone with colitis!

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2021

Verified Purchase

My friend was recently diagnosed with colitis after many months of experiencing terrible gastro-intestinal symptoms. She was so discouraged when she learned which foods she cannot eat. Treatment involved learning a whole new way to cook for her family. I bought her this cookbook and she was greatly cheered up after trying out some of the delicious meals and learning about this special diet.

As someone who has IBS, I think this book offers great recipes. This book also offers great substitutions, in regards to what specific IBS you have. I’ve made many of the recipes already, I love it!

Great!

Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2018

I've only made two recipes so far and this is a great cookbook! Exactly what I was looking for. Easy and delicious meals that won't kill my belly. I've changed a couple things, like using arrowroot powder instead of cornstarch if the recipe calls for it, or bake in the oven instead of fry in a pan, but that's just me being me. Highly recommend this book and very happy I purchased.
