Thought beetroot was off the menu? Think again! 2 slices (20g) of cooked beetroot is actually low FODMAP and works perfectly in this delicious salad! A great lunch option to make ahead of time, simply pop in air tight containers in the fridge and you'll have a low FODMAP lunch ready to go! You could also double the recipe and serve for friends and family as a side at a BBQ or for dinner.
