Vegetable-Tofu Skewers
    SERVES 4
    Although tofu is made from soy, and soy is a legume that contains FODMAPs, I’m happy to say that tofu—because of its processing—is low in FODMAPs. So enjoy these skewers with gusto!
    Â½ cup (125 ml) gluten-free soy sauce
    2 tablespoons sesame oil
    1 teaspoon grated ginger
    7 ounces (200 g) firm tofu, pressed and cut into ½-inch (1.5 cm) cubes
    18 ounces (500 g) sweet potatoes, cut into ¾-inch (2 cm) cubes (about 3¾ cups)
    1 large eggplant, cut into ½-inch (1.5 cm) cubes
    1 large zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into ⅓-inch (1 cm) slices
    2 green or red bell peppers, seeded and cut into ¾-inch (2 cm) squares
    Olive oil (optional)
    Â½ cup (125 ml) gluten-free sweet red chili sauce*
    * Most chili sauces contain garlic. The amount present in the sauce is likely to be minimal and should be suitable for most people on a low-FODMAP diet. If you are extremely sensitive to garlic, it is best to avoid the sauce, or limit intake to a very small serving. Assess your individual tolerance.
    1. Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger in a small bowl. Place the tofu in a large container with a lid. Pour the marinade over the top and toss gently to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, shaking occasionally to evenly coat the tofu with the marinade.
    2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the sweet potato and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until just tender. Drain and set aside.
    3. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 10 minutes to prevent scorching (you will need eight skewers). If broiling, preheat the broiler; if grilling, preheat the grill to medium.
    4. Thread the vegetable and tofu pieces onto the skewers in an alternating pattern.
    5. Grill or pan-fry the skewers over medium heat, or broil, turning regularly and brushing with a little olive oil if necessary to prevent them from sticking.
    6. Serve hot, drizzled with the sweet chili sauce.

Chicken Drumsticks with Lemon and Cilantro
    SERVES 4
    If you have children, encourage them to join you in the kitchen to make this really easy dinner. Quick to prepare and packed full of flavor, this family favorite is delicious warm or cold. Try it with a green salad or cooked rice.
    Â¼ cup (60 ml) gluten-free soy sauce
    2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
    2 teaspoons garlic-infused olive oil
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
    2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sesame oil
    8 chicken drumsticks
    2 heaping tablespoons chopped cilantro
    1. To make the marinade, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic-infused oil, olive oil, lemon juice, and sesame oil in a large baking dish and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
    2. Add the chicken to the marinade and turn each drumstick to make sure they are all well coated. Cover the dish and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
    3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C), or a grill to medium-high. Bake or grill the drumsticks, turning occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes, until the juices run clear when the drumsticks are pierced in the thickest part
