Hello -
This is one of my favorite fall recipes, with savory herbs and a wonderful chewy-tender texture from the sourdough English muffins. I'll turn it from a side dish into a quick one-bowl meal by topping with sauteed low fat veggie or chicken sausages. Delish!
Savory Fennel Sage Bread Pudding
Bread pudding is a terrific soluble fiber foundation for a meal.
Chopping and cooking your veggies till very tender helps break down any insoluble fiber. This makes it much easier on an IBS gut.
Be super generous with your fresh and dried herbs. They don't just add great flavor they are very helpful digestive aids.
Fennel in particular is a carminative, and will actively help prevent bloating and gas.
This recipe checks multiple needs for IBS: low fat, trigger free, soluble fiber base with insoluble fiber carefully added, and low FODMAP to boot. Enjoy!
Makes 8-10 servings
1 cup diced celery or celery root
2 cups diced oyster mushrooms
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh chopped, or 2 teaspoons dried, sage
1 tablespoon fresh chopped, or 1 teaspoon dried, rosemary
7 cups sourdough English muffin pieces, cut into 1/2" cubes and toasted
1 tablespoon Acacia Tummy Fiber
1/2 cup vegetable or fat-free chicken broth
1/2 cup strongly brewed, cooled Fennel Tummy Tea
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 325F. In a large well seasoned skillet cook the celery and mushrooms in the olive oil over medium heat until tender. Add the sage and rosemary, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, add toasted muffin cubes, and stir gently but thoroughly until well combined.
Spoon bread pudding into a 3-quart casserole dish. Add the Acacia Tummy Fiber to a small bowl and stir in the broth and the fennel tea till dissolved, then drizzle liquid over the stuffing and gently stir. Add salt and pepper to taste. Bake, covered, for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 30 minutes more.
